HBOT is an FDA-approved treatment for a wide variety of conditions, including those resulting from cancer treatments, complicated wounds, infections, and certain surgeries. This includes being approved for the treatment of “compromised flaps and grafts,” which often result from complex procedures such as advanced gender affirmation surgeries. Utilizing the healing powers of hyperbaric oxygen therapy has proven incredibly successful for a diverse range of patients seeking enhanced healing. The benefits of HBOT often include:

  • Speeds surgical wound healing
  • Wards off infections
  • Increases circulation in injured postoperative tissues– critical for a successful flap or graft procedure
  • Comfortable, safe and noninvasive healing modality
  • Promotes superior tissue functionality
  • Improves scarring
  • Enhances desired cosmetic results

Medicare Accepted

We are proud to accept Medicare which includes coverage for individuals recovering from cancer treatments, particularly radiation injuries, as well as complicated healing issues associated with certain surgeries and chronic diseases. (Click here to see the list of conditions that may be covered by Medicare.) Many of our patients benefit from HBOT to promote healing, reduce pain, and improve recovery after radiation therapy. We aim to make this vital treatment accessible to those who need it most.

TriCare–TriWest Accepted

We are proud to be in network with TriCare–TriWest, which approves us to see both TriCare members and eligible VA patients. TriCare provides coverage for active-duty service members, retirees, National Guard and Reserve members, and their eligible dependents. TriWest administers the TriCare network on behalf of the VA and Department of Defense, allowing us to provide care to eligible veterans through VA referrals. We are committed to making our vital healing treatments accessible to those who have served.
