The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) currently recognizes Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) for 14 medical conditions, all of which are generally covered by insurance.

HBOT may also benefit many conditions not yet approved by the FDA. Use of HBOT for over 60 medical conditions is approved by other countries around the world and supported by significant, long-standing research. A list of both the medical conditions approved by FDA (covered by insurance) and those that have shown benefit through peer-reviewed research (not covered by insurance) is available below.

We strive to maintain an active database of research on Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. For each condition listed below, click the button to view the research we have on file.

Treatment for conditions not yet approved by the FDA is generally not covered by insurance and is not available at hospital-based hyperbaric centers. As an independent, free-standing provider of HBOT, we can offer the opportunity to all who may benefit. Our policy at Nirvana Hyperbaric Institute is to accommodate the needs and circumstances of all potential candidates for HBOT. Several payment options and financial assistance are available where treatments are not covered by insurance.
