Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Page under development
Breathing almost 100% Oxygen in a ambient pressure greater than the sea level, this is possible by breathing though a mask inside a special sealed equipment called Pressure Chamber.
HOW TO ACCESS
With an referral from the head doctor (General, family or specialist)
STEPS
With your order we will set an appointment to do a first medical examination, the hyperbaric doctor will determinate the best treatment protocol to achieve results. Additional laboratory tests may be required prior, during or after the treatment. Some patients may have contraindications to do the treatment, this will be established by the hyperbaric specialist doctor.
BENEFITS
Increase the oxygen to all the tissues Anti-inflammatory effects Improve immune system Bacteriostatic and bactericide action Increase collagen formation cells Improve and speed up healing process Improve the bone recovery mechanism Improve formation of new blood vessels
