Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for San Jose, CA Residents

Find out how our hyperbaric treatment helps San Jose patients heal effectively with physician-guided care that supports recovery, circulation, and wellness.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) offers patients in the San Jose area a clinically supported way to enhance the body’s natural healing process. By breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber, tissues are able to receive significantly higher oxygen levels than the bloodstream can normally deliver. Many patients choose this form of hyperbaric treatment when standard care has not produced the progress they hoped for in complex wounds, post-radiation effects, injuries, sudden hearing loss, and other qualifying medical conditions.

Benefits of HBOT for Patients in San Jose

Many San Jose patients turn to HBOT when recovery feels slow or painful. Treatment eases swelling, increases comfort, and helps patients return to everyday activities with more mobility and confidence.
Patients often report better sleep, reduced pain, clearer thinking, and visible progress in healing. For those managing radiation effects or chronic wounds, these improvements can restore independence and emotional relief.
HBOT works alongside your existing medical treatments, supporting wound care, surgical recovery, podiatry, and oncology needs. It strengthens healing outcomes and helps reduce complications while keeping your physician involved throughout care. It’s important to realize that HBOT does not heal you. It provides the necessary nutrients (oxygen) so your body can heal itself.

  • What is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?
    Hyperbaric oxygen therapy treats medical conditions with 100% oxygen in a pressurized hyperbaric chamber. The patient lies or sits in the chamber. The oxygen saturates the blood plasma, enabling it to flow throughout the body and reach injured or diseased areas that usually receive less oxygen. The mechanisms of hyperbaric oxygen therapy include stimulating and mobilizing stem cells, down-regulating inflammatory genes, up-regulating reproductive cells and stimulating DNA. HBOT also regrows tiny blood vessels, and stimulates the growth of new healthy cells in the brain, bones, skin, organs, and tissues. People seek hyperbaric oxygen therapy to heal physical damage in their bodies and to promoting health and anti-aging.
  • What does HBOT feel like?
    Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a painless, noninvasive therapy. Our patients often tell us they don't notice the pressure change, except for a bit in their ears. Specifically, some feel a bit of pressure in their ears, like when they take off in an airplane. It feels like their ears are 'popping'. After a treatment, some patients say they can think more clearly and that they have more energy. Patients often report pain relief, increased strength, and improved range of motion following treatment for swelling or nerve impingement.
  • Is HBOT safe?
    Overall, hyperbaric oxygen therapy is extremely safe. However, as with any medical therapy, there can be risks. Any risks will be reviewed with you during your health history review and clinic intake. All clinics are constructed with approval of the local fire marshal and building inspectors to ensure that they comply with all relevant safety codes. Bay Area Hyperbarics has an outstanding safety record for our 21 years serving our community.
  • How do I prepare for HBOT?
    We make preparing for a hyperbaric oxygen therapy easy. Before the first treatment, we take the time to answer all of your questions in detail. The patient’s healthcare provider reviews their history and condition. For example, depending on your condition, you may be asked to eat before your treatment. Preparing for HBOT is just as individualized as the therapy. In most cases, it’s as easy as changing into the clothing we provide you. Call us with any questions you have. We are more than happy to answer all of your questions, even if you are not a current patient.
  • Will my insurance cover HBOT?
    Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has been proven to help with numerous medical conditions. Each insurance company decides what’s covered and what's not. That said, HBOT is covered by Medicare, Kaiser, Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross, United Health Care and many other insurances. Coverage is based on the diagnosis. We also take people with conditions that are not covered by their insurance, but whose problem can greatly improve with HBOT. Call us! We are more than happy to look at your personal situation and do the insurance work for you.
