Treatment options

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) 

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) patients benefit from access to advanced technology that restores tissue to accelerate wound healing, and helps to save injured limbs. This safe and effective treatment delivers 100% oxygen at higher-than-normal atmospheric pressure, allowing the body to absorb more oxygen into the bloodstream. The enhanced oxygen supply accelerates the body’s natural healing processes, reduces inflammation, and promotes new blood vessel growth, while helping to fight infection. Adena Health is one of the only health systems in Ohio offering Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. 

Ultrasonic

Ultrasonic provides thorough wound cleansing and debridement with minimal pain sensation and excellent preservation of healthy, soft tissue. Used without aspiration this treatment is applied directly over sensitive structures without damaging them. The treatment accurately debrides unhealthy tissue resulting in a cleaner wound bed to promote healing. 

Ultrasound healing - non-contact therapy

Non-contact therapy delivers a low-energy ultrasound to the wound where a fluid/saline mist is used to deliver the ultrasound to accelerate the healing process. With no contact to the wound, patients experience find the application painless, and a reduction in overall pain upon completion. This therapy helps promote healing in common wounds including venous leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, deep tissue pressure injuries, and surgical wounds.

Ultrasound healing - contact therapy

Contact therapy delivers a high frequency mechanical vibration to facilitate healing at a cellular level. This solution reduces pain, increases circulation and increases mobility of soft tissues. Additionally, the application can be helpful in the reduction of inflammation, reducing pain and helping the healing of injuries and wounds.
