About the Treatment

Recovering from surgery or a medical procedure places significant demands on the body. Healing tissues require oxygen to repair, inflammation must be carefully managed, and the risk of infection needs to be minimized for optimal outcomes. Medical-grade hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is increasingly used as a supportive therapy to enhance healing, protect tissue, and improve recovery both before and after surgery.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy delivers 100% oxygen at increased atmospheric pressure, allowing oxygen to dissolve directly into the bloodstream and penetrate deeply into tissues that need it most. Even with the most skilled and experienced surgeons, the body’s ability to heal ultimately depends on oxygen delivery at the cellular level. HBOT does not replace excellent surgical care — it complements it, giving tissues the resources they need to recover more efficiently and completely.

When the skin is cut during surgery, normal oxygen delivery to the affected tissues is temporarily disrupted. By hyper-oxygenating tissues before surgery, HBOT helps ensure those tissues are well-oxygenated, resilient, and prepared for the stress of incision and repair. This proactive approach can support healthier tissue response, improved healing capacity, and reduced complications.

Post-procedure, HBOT continues to support recovery by flooding injured and healing areas with oxygen, accelerating repair and strengthening newly forming tissue. Patients often experience faster healing and improved cosmetic and functional outcomes.

Medical-grade HBOT supports recovery by:

  • Deep hyper-oxygenation of tissues to accelerate cellular repair

  • Enhanced collagen production and stronger tissue formation

  • Reduced inflammation, swelling, and bruising

  • Improved circulation and stimulation of angiogenesis (new blood vessel growth)

  • Strengthened immune response and reduced risk of infection

  • Improved outcomes for grafts, flaps, implants, and surgical incisions

Whether preparing for surgery or supporting recovery afterward, hyperbaric oxygen therapy provides an added layer of healing support — helping the body do what it does best, only better.

A Simple Process

Why Tier 1 Stands Apart

For more than a decade, Tier 1 has delivered doctor-driven,  hyperbaric medicine to thousands of patients. We use only true medical-grade, FDA approved chambers—not inflatable wellness devices.

• Physician evaluation, clearance, and prescription
• Certified hyperbaric technicians on every session
• Evidence-based post-operative recovery protocols
• A reputation built on safety, precision, and consistent outcomes

Exclusive Post Procedure HBOT Package

• Physician evaluation and medical clearance
• HBOT prescription
• Three medical-grade hyperbaric oxygen sessions
• Three clinical-grade near-infrared light therapy sessions

What To Expect During Treatment

A Calm, Clinical Experience: Patients relax in a large, comfortable chamber after a brief safety review. The session is peaceful and restorative and lasts a little over an hour. 

What You’ll Feel: As the chamber pressurizes, patients may feel gentle ear-popping like flying. Afterward, treatment feels like simply resting and breathing—no pain and no downtime.

Medical Oversight: Vital signs, comfort, and safety are monitored before and after every session, ensuring medical-grade precision throughout care.

When To Schedule HBOT

It’s ideal to schedule your sessions to start the day after surgery so plan in advance. We can help you coordinate HBOT while you are scheduling your surgery or procedure.

Recovery with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

HBOT has been shown to work at the mitochondrial level to “kick start” the healing process by:

  • Creating new blood vessels (a process called angiogenesis)
  • Stimulating new capillary growth
  • Improving neuroplasticity
  • Increasing stem cell mobilization by 800%
  • Reducing inflammation and lactic acid
  • Increasing white blood cell production
  • Enhancing the ability for white blood cells to carry away “bad” bacteria and debris (Leukocyte activity)
  • Reducing swelling
  • Reducing edema
  • Increasing the production of collagen
