HYPERBARIC = utilizing greater than normal pressure
OXYGEN = active in physiological processes of almost all known organisms
THERAPY = treatment of impairment, injury, disease, or disorder
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is the medical use of oxygen in a pressurized environment, at a level higher than 1 atmosphere absolute (ATA). Increased pressure allows for oxygen to dissolve and super-saturate the body's fluids (blood plasma, lymph, and cerebral spinal fluid), even reaching injuries with damaged circulation. This increase in oxygenation helps facilitate the body’s natural healing process resulting in decreased inflammation, improved circulation, cellular regeneration, and injury repair.
This noninvasive therapy is the most trusted way to increase oxygen levels to all organs of the body. A typical HBOT session lasts for 60-90 minutes, while lying in a hyperbaric chamber relaxing and breathing normally.

Insurance vs. non-insurance covered conditions
Insurance vs. non-insurance covered conditions
Not all conditions treated with HBOT are insurance approved. Typically, insurance approved conditions are treated in a hospital setting. Non-insurance based, off-label conditions are often treated in a clinic setting or with an in-home portable chamber.

Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (mHBOT) vs. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)
mHBOT refers to mild hyperbaric oxygen therapy. The "mild" refers to the pressure at which the chamber is operating under. For example, most mHBOT chambers can pressurize up to 1.3 ATA (4 psi). Chambers that have a max pressure of 1.3 ATA are often made of flexible material (soft shell) and are portable.
High-pressure hard shell HBOT chambers can pressurize up to 3.0 ATA (29 psi).
