Bariatric hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy for pets

Bariatric Chamber Therapy

Advanced hyperbaric oxygen treatment for accelerated healing

Animal Care Clinic Key Largo offers bariatric (hyperbaric oxygen) chamber therapy — a cutting-edge treatment that delivers concentrated oxygen to tissues, promoting faster healing, reducing inflammation, and supporting recovery from a wide range of conditions.

What Is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) places your pet in a pressurized chamber filled with pure oxygen. Under increased atmospheric pressure, oxygen dissolves directly into the bloodstream at much higher concentrations than normal breathing allows. This oxygen-rich environment supercharges the body's natural healing processes.

Increases oxygen delivery to injured or infected tissues

Reduces swelling and inflammation

Stimulates new blood vessel growth

Enhances the body's ability to fight infection

Supports recovery after surgery or trauma

Oxygen-Powered Healing

Under increased pressure, oxygen dissolves into the bloodstream at up to 20× normal concentration — reaching tissues that standard circulation cannot.

Available at Animal Care Clinic Key Largo — one of the few facilities in the Florida Keys offering this advanced therapy.

Conditions We Treat

HBOT is used as a primary or adjunct therapy for many conditions in dogs, cats, and other animals.

Smoke Inhalation

Rapidly clears carbon monoxide from the bloodstream and restores oxygen to affected tissues.

Neurological Conditions

Spinal cord injuries, intervertebral disc disease (IVDD), and brain trauma may benefit from reduced swelling and improved oxygenation.

Infections & Abscesses

High oxygen concentrations are toxic to anaerobic bacteria, making HBOT effective against deep infections.

What to Expect

Consultation

Our veterinarian evaluates your pet and determines whether HBOT is appropriate for their condition and overall health.

Comfortable Session

Your pet rests comfortably inside the clear chamber. Sessions typically last 60–90 minutes. Most animals tolerate the experience well.

Treatment Plan

Depending on the condition, a series of sessions may be recommended. We'll work with you to schedule treatments that fit your routine.
