Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is one of the most advanced and non-invasive medical treatments available today. By placing the body in a controlled, pressurized environment, HBOT allows patients to breathe concentrated oxygen at levels far higher than what is possible under normal conditions. This increased oxygen becomes a powerful catalyst for healing—supporting tissue repair, calming inflammation, and enhancing cellular function in ways that traditional therapies alone cannot achieve.
At Medici Orthopaedics & Spine, HBOT reflects our commitment to restoring each patient’s quality of life using the most effective, least-invasive, and least drug-dependent solutions. For patients seeking meaningful relief from pain, injury, or slow-healing conditions, HBOT offers an opportunity to feel better, move better, and live better with the support of a team that genuinely cares.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy involves relaxing inside a specialized hyperbaric chamber where the atmospheric pressure is gently increased. During this process, patients breathe in pure, concentrated oxygen. This environment allows oxygen to dissolve more efficiently into the bloodstream—reaching tissues, muscles, and cells that may otherwise be deprived due to injury, inflammation, or impaired circulation.
Under higher pressure, oxygen saturation in the blood rises dramatically. This helps the body in several key ways:
By flooding the body with the oxygen it needs to heal, HBOT nurtures recovery from the inside out—making it especially beneficial for patients with chronic pain, orthopedic injuries, or post-surgical healing needs.
Every HBOT session at Medici Orthopaedics & Spine is performed under the careful supervision of trained medical professionals. Our team closely monitors each patient’s comfort and safety throughout the treatment, ensuring a relaxed and reassuring experience from start to finish.
With our modern hyperbaric chamber technology and patient-centered approach, HBOT is not only safe—it’s one of the most comfortable, soothing therapies we offer. Patients often describe sessions as peaceful, restorative moments built right into their healing journey.
High-pressure oxygen allows the bloodstream to carry far more oxygen than it can under normal circumstances. This concentrated oxygen reaches deep into tissues with poor circulation—areas that often struggle to heal because they simply don’t get enough oxygen to repair themselves.
Oxygen is the fuel your cells need to regenerate. When tissues receive an abundant supply, they can repair faster, reduce damage, and strengthen their structural integrity. HBOT gives your body the oxygen advantage it needs to restore healing where it has been stalled.
One of the most meaningful benefits of HBOT is its ability to reduce inflammation within the body. With repeated sessions, inflammatory markers decrease, swelling calms, and tissues begin functioning more efficiently.
For patients with orthopedic injuries, joint pain, spinal inflammation, or chronic swelling, HBOT offers a soothing, measurable reduction in discomfort. This anti-inflammatory effect is a key reason why HBOT pairs so effectively with pain management and rehabilitative care at Medici.
HBOT naturally mobilizes stem cells—your body’s built-in repair units. Under hyperbaric oxygen conditions, these stem cells multiply and circulate more actively, accelerating regeneration in damaged tissues.
This becomes especially powerful when combined with regenerative medicine treatments offered at Medici Orthopaedics & Spine. HBOT amplifies your body’s ability to repair itself, making it a valuable partner to therapies designed to rebuild and restore.
High-concentration oxygen enhances your body’s ability to neutralize bacteria through a process known as oxidative killing. This strengthens overall immune function and helps the body respond more effectively to chronic pain, inflammatory disease, and degenerative conditions.
For patients dealing with persistent or recurring pain, HBOT supports a healthier internal environment that allows the immune system to do its job more efficiently.
Collagen is essential for the health of tendons, ligaments, spinal discs, cartilage, and joints. HBOT stimulates collagen production by enhancing oxygen delivery to the cells responsible for building and repairing these structures.
Over time, patients may notice stronger connective tissues, improved joint stability, and better support for everyday movement.
HBOT encourages the formation of new micro-blood vessels, a process known as angiogenesis. These new pathways improve long-term circulation and ensure healthier oxygen delivery to tissues that previously struggled to heal.
With better blood flow comes better recovery—especially in chronic conditions influenced by poor microcirculation.
HBOT helps calm irritated nerves by improving oxygenation and reducing inflammation around nerve pathways. Patients with neuropathy, diabetic nerve pain, or neuralgia often experience a noticeable reduction in burning, tingling, or sensitivity.
By giving nerves the environment they need to heal, HBOT supports long-term relief rather than temporary symptom management.
Whether related to chronic back pain, neck pain, arthritic degeneration, or old injuries, HBOT reduces stress on muscles, joints, and supportive tissues. Improved oxygenation allows these structures to relax, repair, and function more comfortably.
This makes HBOT a valuable component of Medici’s comprehensive approach to chronic musculoskeletal pain—especially when used alongside physical therapy, injections, or regenerative treatments.
During HBOT, oxygen helps clear metabolic waste from the muscles much more efficiently. This leads to faster recovery, reduced soreness, and noticeable relief from spasms and muscle tightness.
For patients whose pain limits daily activities, HBOT offers a gentle, restorative path toward improved mobility and better overall comfort.
Athletes and active individuals often deal with sprains, strains, ligament injuries, and chronic overuse conditions. HBOT accelerates recovery by delivering high levels of oxygen directly into damaged tissues, helping them heal faster and more completely.
This boost in oxygenation reduces downtime and supports a quicker return to training, work, or daily activities.
After surgery, the body works hard to repair incisions and reduce swelling. HBOT enhances this process by improving wound oxygenation, stimulating collagen formation, and decreasing post-operative inflammation.
Many patients find that HBOT not only speeds healing but also reduces their need for pain medications, offering a safer and more comfortable recovery experience—especially important for those seeking non-addictive approaches to pain relief.
For patients recovering from fractures, soft tissue injuries, or acute trauma, HBOT improves cellular repair and reduces secondary damage caused by inflammation or swelling.
This leads to a smoother recovery, more consistent pain control, and better functional outcomes—particularly when paired with Medici’s comprehensive pain management and rehabilitation services.
HBOT helps calm the chronic inflammation that drives joint stiffness and pain. With increased oxygen delivery, joints may move more freely, swelling decreases, and comfort improves—making daily activities easier and more enjoyable.
Patients with fibromyalgia or myofascial pain often struggle with widespread muscle tenderness and hypersensitivity. HBOT infuses the muscles with the oxygen they’ve been lacking, reducing trigger point activity and easing overall discomfort.
Many patients describe sessions as deeply restorative, offering relief where other treatments have fallen short.
Neuropathy can leave patients with burning, numbness, or tingling sensations caused by nerve damage. HBOT enhances nerve repair by improving circulation and delivering oxygen to compromised nerve tissues.
This can result in gradual, meaningful relief for neuropathy—including diabetic nerve pain and other chronic nerve conditions.
CRPS is often marked by severe pain, swelling, temperature changes, and hypersensitivity. HBOT supports healing by promoting vascular regeneration and calming overactive nerves.
This makes HBOT an invaluable tool for patients seeking a gentle yet effective approach to managing CRPS symptoms.
Reduced circulation in diabetic patients can make wound healing extremely difficult. HBOT improves tissue oxygenation, reduces inflammation, and stimulates new blood vessel growth—three essential components of successful wound healing.
This therapy has helped many diabetic patients avoid complications and regain healthier function.
Some patients experience lingering pain after spine surgery despite structural correction. HBOT supports recovery by reducing inflammation, enhancing tissue repair, and improving blood flow around sensitive spinal structures.
For chronic spine conditions—whether surgical or nonsurgical—HBOT offers a safe, effective layer of support in the healing process.
HBOT is more than an advanced therapy—it’s a meaningful opportunity to reclaim mobility, comfort, and quality of life. Whether you’re living with chronic pain, recovering from an injury, or searching for a non-invasive treatment that truly supports the body’s natural healing process, our team is here to help you every step of the way.
