Chronic pain affects millions of people nationwide and has become one of the most significant barriers to living a full, active, and enjoyable life. Whether it stems from injury, inflammation, nerve irritation, or long-standing medical conditions, chronic pain can disrupt everything—from sleep and mobility to work, mood, and overall quality of life.
Traditional treatments often provide only partial or temporary relief. Medications may help for a short time but don’t address the underlying cause of the pain. Physical therapy, injections, or conservative care may ease symptoms but sometimes need additional support to optimize healing. And while surgery is appropriate in a small number of cases, many patients understandably want to avoid invasive procedures if a safer option exists.
This is where Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) emerges as a powerful, modern, non-invasive solution.
HBOT enhances the body’s natural healing processes by immersing patients in an oxygen-rich, pressurized environment designed to reduce inflammation, accelerate tissue repair, and support long-term pain relief. At Medici Orthopaedics & Spine, we use HBOT not as a stand-alone therapy, but as a strategic part of a personalized, patient-focused treatment plan.
Our mission is simple: restore your quality of life using the safest, least-invasive, and most effective treatments available today. HBOT aligns perfectly with that mission, offering a pathway to relief that is gentle, drug-free, and backed by modern medical science.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a specialized medical treatment where patients breathe 100% pure oxygen inside a pressurized chamber. This higher-pressure environment allows your lungs to take in significantly more oxygen than normal, delivering an elevated level of oxygen directly into your bloodstream and tissues.
Inside the chamber, pressure increases gradually—much like the experience of being underwater. Under these conditions, your blood plasma becomes highly saturated with oxygen, allowing it to reach areas of the body where circulation may be limited due to inflammation, injury, or chronic tissue damage.
This surge of oxygen helps:
HBOT has long been used in hospitals for wound care, infection control, and other medical conditions. But in recent years, its ability to enhance healing at the cellular level has made it an increasingly valuable tool for managing chronic pain.
Patients choose HBOT because it is:
At Medici Orthopaedics & Spine, HBOT is part of a comprehensive, diagnostic-driven plan tailored to your unique needs. By combining advanced oxygen therapy with targeted non-surgical treatments, we help patients throughout Georgia reduce pain, improve function, and reclaim their daily lives.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is powerful because it supports the body at a cellular level—where healing truly begins. By increasing oxygen availability far beyond what the body can access under normal conditions, HBOT creates an environment where injured or inflamed tissues can finally repair and recover.
Chronic inflammation is a key driver of long-lasting pain. HBOT helps calm inflamed tissues by increasing oxygen saturation and reducing cellular stress, allowing irritated areas to settle and heal.
Oxygen is essential for tissue repair. By delivering oxygen deep into damaged tissues, HBOT accelerates regeneration of muscles, ligaments, nerves, and connective structures.
HBOT boosts oxygen-rich blood circulation, especially in areas where poor blood flow slows down healing. This improved microcirculation supports long-term recovery and reduces stiffness.
Nerve-related pain—such as neuropathy, sciatica, or CRPS—can be especially difficult to treat. HBOT promotes nerve repair by reducing inflammation around nerve fibers and improving cellular energy production.
HBOT enhances the body’s natural defenses, helping clear inflammation, improve recovery after injury, and support patients dealing with slow-healing conditions.
One of HBOT’s greatest benefits is how well it works with other therapies. When paired with physical therapy, regenerative medicine, or orthopedic interventions, HBOT often speeds healing and improves outcomes—helping patients experience noticeable relief faster.
HBOT has shown significant benefits for a wide range of chronic pain conditions—especially those linked to inflammation, soft tissue damage, or nerve irritation. At Medici Orthopaedics & Spine, we incorporate HBOT for patients whose healing can be enhanced through increased oxygenation and cellular recovery.
Helps reduce widespread inflammation and muscle tenderness while supporting energy production at the cellular level.
Improves oxygenation of soft tissues, supports disc and ligament recovery, and reduces localized inflammation.
Targets deep muscle trigger points and promotes healing of chronically tight, oxygen-deprived tissues.
HBOT may reduce nerve swelling, support nerve fiber repair, and improve blood flow to damaged nerves.
Accelerates recovery after procedures by reducing swelling, improving tissue repair, and minimizing downtime.
Supports faster healing of strains, sprains, tendinitis, and overuse injuries—helping athletes return to activity more quickly.
Calms chronic inflammation, reduces joint pain, and enhances tissue resilience.
Improves oxygen delivery to areas with limited circulation, helping tissues heal more effectively.
While complex to treat, CRPS often responds well to multimodal plans where HBOT helps reduce inflammation, support nerve recovery, and improve function.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is designed to be a healing, comfortable, and calming experience. At Medici Orthopaedics & Spine, we’ve created an environment that feels supportive from the moment you walk in, ensuring each HBOT session is stress-free and tailored to your needs.
Throughout your session, our clinical team monitors:
Patient safety remains our highest priority at every moment.
A typical HBOT session lasts 60–90 minutes, depending on your personalized treatment plan. Most patients undergo a series of sessions for the best healing response, which we tailor based on your diagnosis and goals.
Most patients feel relaxed during the session and may leave feeling energized or refreshed. Some report temporary ear fullness—similar to airplane travel—but this usually resolves quickly. Many patients notice gradual improvements in pain levels, mobility, and inflammation over the course of their treatment series.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy offers a safe, modern, and highly effective path to reducing chronic pain—without surgery, without addictive medications, and without long recovery times. At Medici Orthopaedics & Spine, our team uses HBOT to accelerate healing, calm inflammation, and help you return to daily life with greater comfort and confidence.
HBOT is more than a treatment—it’s a way to strengthen your body’s natural healing capabilities so you can move, work, and live with greater freedom. Whether you're recovering from an injury, managing a long-standing pain condition, or looking for a non-invasive option to enhance your recovery, we’re here to support you with personalized, compassionate care.
If you’re ready to explore HBOT as part of your non-invasive, personalized pain relief plan, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
