Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

What is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)

Your body's tissues need an adequate supply of oxygen to function. When tissue is injured, it requires even more oxygen to survive. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases the amount of oxygen your blood can carry. With repeated scheduled treatments, the temporary extra high oxygen levels encourage normal tissue oxygen levels, even after the therapy is completed.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is used to treat several medical conditions. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy may help if you if you have one of the following conditions:
  • Severe anemia
  • Brain abscess
  • Bubbles of air in your blood vessels (arterial gas embolism)
  • Burns
  • Carbon monoxide poisoning
  • Crushing injury
  • Deafness, sudden
  • Decompression sickness
  • Gangrene
  • Infection of skin or bone that causes tissue death
  • Nonhealing wounds, such as a diabetic foot ulcer
  • Radiation injury
  • Skin graft or skin flap at risk of tissue death
  • Traumatic brain injury
  • Vision loss, sudden and painless
Whether you're in an individual or multi-person environment for hyperbaric oxygen therapy, the benefits are the same. During therapy, the air pressure in the room is about two to three times the normal air pressure. In order to benefit from hyperbaric oxygen therapy, you'll likely need more than one session. The number of sessions is dependent upon your medical condition. Some conditions, such as carbon monoxide poisoning, might be treated in three visits. Others, such as non-healing wounds, may require 40 treatments or more.
To effectively treat approved medical conditions, hyperbaric oxygen therapy is usually part of a comprehensive treatment plan provided with other therapies and drugs that are designed to fit your individual needs.

Phase One... Allied Provider in Raleigh NC

​We have been very fortunate to have a provider in Raleigh NC who has given us "at cost" time in their HBOT Chamber to help veterans. We have been providing transportation and paying the cost for the veterans we have served for a number of years now. However, this is not the most cost effective way for us to make a difference in a holistic way and therefore we are looking to Phase II.

Phase Two... Set up HBOT Chamber at HQ

RFH is looking to acquire a specific HBOT Chamber to set up in our Health and Wellness Center.  While our efforts to help veterans has been successful it does require an entire day of travel and possibly the loss of revenue for the veteran. By having a HBOT chamber physically located at our Headquarters veterans being served need not travel hours and can sit in the chamber for a morning and evening session without impacting their employment.

We call this our Phase II approach and we are looking to have donations equaling $30,000 in order to purchase the unit identified below from Classic Hyperbarics:

Dual Person HBOT Chamber Capabilities:
  • • Two Person Capacity
  • • 3.0 ATA (29 psi)
  • • 37" Diameter
  • • 116" Length
  • • 1250 lbs Weight
  • • 3/8" Metal thickness
  • • 1/2" Metal Door thickness
  • • 26" Door Opening
  • • 3 Port Hole 9" Windows
  • • 3.0 ATA Override Valve
  • • 8 Different Shut Off Relief Valves
  • • Emergency Outside Shut Off
  • • Controls Located From Inside
  • • Inside Overhead Access Handles
  • • Interior Handicap Rails That Ease
  • the Process of Entry and Exit
  • • Interior Shelf
  • • Heavy Duty 3" Rubber Casters for
  • Easy Mobility
  • • 4hp Oilless Medical Grade
  • Compressor (220 volt) w/Dryer &
  • Filter
