Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
More oxygen, more healing, more life. HBOT helps patients heal faster by delivering pure oxygen to areas of injury, inflammation, and reduced circulation.

More Oxygen. More Healing. More Life.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy at The Busch Chiropractic Center in Fort Wayne delivers concentrated oxygen under elevated pressure to accelerate healing throughout the body. It's one of the most powerful supportive therapies for patients dealing with chronic conditions, slow-healing injuries or neurological recovery.
The core principle is simple: oxygen is the foundation of cellular repair. Every healing process in your body depends on having enough oxygen reaching the right tissues at the right time. In many chronic conditions and injuries, circulation is impaired, inflammation is elevated, and the tissues that need oxygen most are getting the least of it. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy solves that problem at the source.
How HBOT Works
During treatment, you rest comfortably inside a pressurized chamber while breathing pure or highly concentrated oxygen. The increased pressure does something remarkable: it allows oxygen to dissolve directly into your blood plasma, lymph fluid, and even cerebrospinal fluid — bypassing the normal limits of red-blood-cell oxygen transport. That dissolved oxygen reaches deep into tissues that ordinary breathing simply can't supply, including the spinal cord and brain.
The increased oxygen supply produces a cascade of powerful biological effects:
- Boosts white blood cell count and immune function — helping the body fight bacteria, viruses, and chronic infections
- Reduces systemic inflammation — addressing one of the root drivers of chronic pain and disease
- Increases stem cell production by up to 8-fold — mobilizing your body's own regenerative cells to areas that need repair
- Repairs nerve endings — supporting recovery from neuropathy, injury, and neurological conditions
- Promotes new blood vessel growth (angiogenesis) — establishing better circulation in areas that have been chronically under-supplied
- Activates more than 8,000 individual genes responsible for healing, growth, and anti-inflammation
The breadth of HBOT's effects is one reason it helps such a wide range of conditions — it works on the foundational cellular processes that all healing depends on.
Conditions HBOT Can Help
HBOT has been studied and applied successfully for an extensive list of conditions where traditional medicine often falls short:
- Arthritis and chronic joint inflammation
- Diabetic wound healing — including non-healing foot ulcers
- Traumatic brain injury (TBI) and post-concussion syndrome
- Chronic fatigue syndrome
- Alzheimer's, dementia, and cognitive decline support
- Parkinson's disease
- PTSD and trauma recovery
- Autism spectrum support
- Multiple sclerosis
- Autoimmune disorders — including lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and others
- Lyme disease and post-treatment Lyme syndrome
- Long-COVID and post-viral recovery
- Athletic injury and surgical recovery
- Stroke recovery
- Slow-healing wounds and tissue injuries
If your condition isn't on this list, that doesn't mean HBOT can't help — it just means we need to look at your individual case to know.
