Advanced Wound Healing and Limb Salvage at Elite Foot & Ankle Center

At Elite Foot & Ankle Center, we’re proud to offer Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) – a powerful, non-invasive treatment designed to accelerate healing in patients with chronic wounds, diabetic foot ulcers, infections, and other hard-to-treat conditions. If you’re struggling with a slow-healing wound or facing the possibility of amputation, HBOT could be a life-changing option.

What Is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy involves breathing 100% pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber. This process increases the amount of oxygen your blood can carry, stimulating the body’s natural healing processes.

During HBOT sessions, oxygen is delivered at pressures higher than normal atmospheric levels, allowing it to:

• Reach damaged or oxygen-deprived tissues
• Fight infection by boosting white blood cell activity
• Stimulate new blood vessel formation (angiogenesis)
• Promote collagen production and wound closure

Conditions Treated with HBOT

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is FDA-approved and widely used for a range of conditions. At Elite Foot & Ankle Center, we most often recommend HBOT for:

• Diabetic foot ulcers
• Non-healing surgical wounds
• Radiation-induced tissue damage
• Chronic infections (e.g., osteomyelitis)
• Crush injuries and compromised grafts or flaps
• Ischemic or arterial wounds
• Gas gangrene or necrotizing soft tissue infections

If you’ve been told your wound isn’t healing or you’re at risk for amputation, HBOT may help reverse the process and save your limb.

What to Expect During Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Each treatment session typically lasts about 90–120 minutes and is conducted in a specialized chamber while you relax comfortably. The number of treatments depends on your condition but may range from 20 to 60 sessions.

Our clinical team monitors your progress closely throughout the therapy process. Many patients experience:

• Reduced wound size and depth
• Decreased pain and inflammation
• Faster healing time
• Fewer infections or complications

HBOT is safe, well-tolerated, and can be used in conjunction with other wound care treatments for maximum benefit.
