Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Frequently Asked Questions
What is hyperbaric oxygen therapy?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a holistic, powerful treatment that increases the amount of oxygen in your body to improve symptoms of a disease, injury, or chronic pain naturally. Low amounts of oxygen in your blood can increase brain fog, memory loss, depression, neuropathy, tremors, anxiety, and more. It's associated with inflammation, aging, chronic stress, and injuries.
How does hyperbaric oxygen therapy work?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy works by increasing oxygen levels within your body by exposing you to hyperbaric oxygen that infuses the gas directly into blood plasma. Extra oxygen that builds up in your body helps heal it and regenerate new tissues naturally without any pain or downtime.

The Integrative Medica team lets you know if hyperbaric oxygen therapy is the right treatment for you after reviewing your medical history and discussing your symptoms. Our providers complete a comprehensive physical exam and might recommend blood tests or imaging procedures to diagnose your condition.
What should I expect during treatment?
When you arrive at Integrative Medica for hyperbaric oxygen therapy, you're greeted by warm, welcoming staff. They check your vital signs and ask you to lie down and relax in a special tube that delivers elevated levels of oxygen to your body.
Our providers let you know how many minutes your treatment may last based on your condition and its severity.
What happens after the procedure?

The Integrative Medica team might recommend multiple treatments, or combine oxygen therapy with other holistic solutions, to fully restore your health without surgery or harsh medications.
