Air or Gas Embolism

An air or gas embolism refers to a bubble moving in the blood stream that could obstruct the flow of blood to the body’s vital organs and tissues.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is the primary treatment for an air or gas embolism because the increased atmospheric pressure reduces the bubble’s size and helps it dissolve in the bloodstream.

Our experienced clinical team is available to help you identify appropriate candidates for Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and to answer any additional questions about HBOT or our facilities. You deserve the best – our mission is to achieve patient success through personalized, innovative, and compassionate care that enhances your healing potential. We do so at the lowest possible out-of-pocket cost for your patients, with only one copay and/or less coinsurance than at a hospital-based HBOT program.
