Supporting Your Body’s Natural Recovery from Non-Healing Wounds
Chronic or non-healing wounds can take a significant toll, physically, emotionally, and socially. Conditions like diabetic foot ulcers, slow-healing surgical incisions, burns, or radiation injuries can make daily life challenging and increase your risk of serious complications.
At Aviv Clinics, we deliver a scientifically validated hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) protocol that goes beyond standard wound care. Our approach enhances oxygen delivery at the cellular level, stimulates new blood vessel growth, and activates the body’s natural repair processes, including recruiting stem cells to the injured area.
Our unique HBOT protocol helps patients recover more effectively, regain mobility, and achieve better long-term outcomes, even when other treatments have failed.

Why Do Some Wounds Struggle to Heal?
Wound healing relies on healthy blood flow, adequate oxygen, and the body’s ability to repair and regenerate tissue. When any of these are disrupted, wounds can become compromised.
Common barriers to healing include:
- Poor circulation
- Metabolic disorders including diabetes
- Radiation or chemotherapy damage
- Chronic infection or weakened immune function
- Tissue death (necrosis)
- Traumatic wounds that won’t close.
HBOT at Aviv Clinics helps overcome these obstacles by restoring oxygen to deprived tissues, activating the body’s natural repair signals, mobilizing stem cells, and improving the wound microenvironment. This combination jump-starts healing and supports closure of even the most persistent wounds.

How HBOT at Aviv Clinics Supports Wound Healing
Scientific research shows that the Aviv HBOT protocol addresses the four critical components of tissue repair.
- Restoring oxygen to tissues, giving cells the energy they need to repair and regenerate.
- Activating repair signals by triggering hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1α), a molecule that drives new blood vessel growth and tissue regeneration.
- Mobilizing stem cells and activating growth factors, the body’s natural tools for rebuilding tissue from within
- Improving the wound microenvironment by reducing inflammation, stimulating vessel growth, boosting collagen production, and strengthening immune defenses.
Together, these effects create an optimal environment for closure and functional recovery of chronic wounds.
What Wounds Can Benefit from Hyperbaric Oxygen at Aviv Clinics?
HBOT has been shown to help a wide range of wounds that fail to respond to traditional treatments, including:
- Diabetic foot ulcers caused by impaired circulation or neuropathy.
- Non-healing surgical wounds, including compromised skin grafts or flaps.
- Radiation injuries, including burns and soft tissue necrosis.
- Thermal or chemical burns that require accelerated healing.
- Necrotic wounds, including venomous bites.
Each Aviv Clinics client receives an individualized evaluation to determine if HBOT is appropriate and to create a treatment plan tailored to the wound type and severity.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wound Healing and HBOT
-
How does hyperbaric oxygen therapy help wounds heal?
How does hyperbaric oxygen therapy help wounds heal?
Learn moreDuring hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), patients breathe 100% oxygen in a pressurized chamber, which allows much more oxygen to dissolve into the blood. This extra oxygen reaches areas with poor circulation and gives cells the energy they need to repair and grow.
-
What types of wounds can benefit from HBOT?
What types of wounds can benefit from HBOT?
HBOT can help many types of wounds including diabetic foot ulcers, surgical incisions, radiation injuries, severe burns, compromised skin grafts or flaps, and necrotic wounds from venomous bites or trauma.
-
Is HBOT safe for wound healing?
Is HBOT safe for wound healing?
Yes. HBOT is a well-studied, non-invasive and non-pharmaceutical therapy that is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for treating non-healing wounds. Side effects and adverse reactions are typically minimal. Treatments at Aviv Clinics are conducted in a controlled medical environment under the supervision of trained hyperbaric professionals.
-
How Many HBOT Treatments Will I Need?
How Many HBOT Treatments Will I Need?
The number of treatments can vary significantly depending on wound type, severity, and the client’s overall health, but typically range from 4-8 weeks. After an evaluation by a board-certified physician, you will receive a personalized plan tailored to your needs.
-
Can HBOT prevent complications such as infection or tissue death?
Can HBOT prevent complications such as infection or tissue death?
Scientific research shows that hyperbaric oxygen therapy can reduce the risk of infection and tissue necrosis in chronic wounds by improving oxygenation, enhancing immune response, and supporting tissue repair mechanisms.
