Who this is for

People with diabetes whose foot wound has stayed open for 30 days or more, even with dressings, offloading, and a wound clinic.

What oxygen does

Diabetes narrows the small vessels that feed the skin, so the wound is starved of oxygen. Breathing pure oxygen under pressure pushes far more of it into the blood and tissue, which helps new vessels grow and gives the body what it needs to close the wound.

What a course looks like

Most courses run 20 to 40 daily sessions, Monday through Friday, alongside your regular wound care. We work with your podiatrist or wound doctor, not instead of them.

This is an approved use of hyperbaric oxygen under Medicare and UHMS guidelines. Whether it is right for you is a decision made with our physician and yours.

Treated at both clinics: Great Neck and Massapequa Park.
