Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBO)

Atrium Health Navicent Wound Care, a Facility of Atrium Health Navicent The Medical Center often uses hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO), a medical treatment that enhances the body's natural healing process. Patients enter a clear pressurized chamber and breath 100% oxygen. By increasing the oxygen levels in the blood and tissue, the body's ability to promote new blood vessel grov4 and to fight infection is significantly enhanced. This leads to faster healing so you can get on with your daily life.
