Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Boost Recovery, Reduce Inflammation, and Enhance Overall Wellness
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is an advanced medical treatment that involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber. This therapy significantly increases oxygen levels in the bloodstream, promoting healing, reducing inflammation, and improving overall health. At the Salerno Wellness Center, we specialize in providing HBOT in a safe, controlled environment to enhance your well-being.
How It Works
HBOT works by increasing atmospheric pressure within the treatment chamber, allowing your lungs to absorb more oxygen than would be possible at normal air pressure. This high oxygen level accelerates the body's natural healing processes by delivering oxygen-rich blood to damaged tissues and supporting cellular repair.
