Is hyperbaric oxygen therapy right for you?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in Albuquerque NM or Rio Rancho NM may be appropriate if you're dealing with:
- Chronic pain or inflammation
- Slow or stalled tissue healing
- Nerve-related symptoms or neuropathy
- Post-surgical recovery
- Sports injuries or overuse injuries
- Fatigue or poor recovery capacity
HBOT is a support tool — not a replacement for movement, stability, or rehab.
Why HBOT Alone often falls short
Many people try HBOT and feel better — but results don't always last.
That's because:
- Oxygen improves healing potential, not movement patterns
- Poor mechanics continue to stress tissue
- Stability deficits remain
- The body returns to old habits
Without restoring function and load tolerance, oxygen alone can't create lasting change.
How We use spinal decompression differently
At Gonstead Physical Medicine, HBOT is used strategically, not randomly.
We integrate it into care plans to:
- Enhance tissue repair and regeneration
- Improve nerve recovery
- Reduce inflammation and swelling
- Support faster adaptation to rehab and movement
Then we reinforce healing with stability training, movement correction, and progressive loading.
Oxygen supports healing — function determines durability.
Where HBOT Fits in Your Care Plan
Discovery
We determine whether poor tissue oxygenation or delayed healing is limiting progress.
Revive
HBOT is introduced to calm inflammation and accelerate tissue repair.
Restore
As rehab and movement progress, HBOT supports recovery between sessions.
Build
We use HBOT to help your body tolerate higher demands as strength and resilience increase.
What to expect during HBOT
- Comfortable, relaxing sessions
- You rest or relax while breathing oxygen
- Sessions typically last 60–90 minutes
- No pain or invasive procedures
Care plans vary based on:
- Your condition and goals
- Tissue and nerve involvement
- Recovery demands
What HBOT Can — and Can’t Do
It CAN:
- Improve tissue healing and recovery
- Support nerve health
- Reduce inflammation
- Enhance recovery between treatments
It CANNOT:
- Fix faulty movement patterns
- Replace rehab or strength training
- Override poor habits or overload
That's why our approach focuses on healing plus function — not passive recovery alone.
