Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a specialist form of treatment combining the medicinal benefits of 100% oxygen and increased atmospheric pressure system.
Without HBOT, oxygen is transported around the body by red blood cells. With the hyperbaric oxygen therapy the oxygen is dissolved to the plasma, CNS fluid, and the lymph.
The oxygen is able to be infused into areas of compromised blood supply, This aids in reducing swelling, killing bacteria, and in the growth of new blood vessels thus allowing the body to support it's own healing processes.
Your pet will be examined and monitored continuously before, during and after treatment. Your pets comfort is constantly assessed and it is important to note that Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a comfortable, non invasive treatment. Most pets are typically relaxed, rest and sleep during the Oxygen Therapy.
Treatment times may vary from 30 minutes to 60 minutes and the frequency of treatments will depend on the condition that we are treating. There will be preparation and assessment time at the start of your appointment and monitoring and observation after the treatment, most patients are with us for approximately 2 hours.
