Technology to Help Heal

The JMH Wound and Vascular Center features Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) to treat some medical conditions. The treatment takes place in a chamber that you can see out of while laying on a stretcher inside the chamber. You can watch TV or a movie. The chamber is pressurized. You breathe 100 percent oxygen. Your blood carries the extra oxygen to your injured area.
