Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Dogs in El Paso: Supporting Recovery After Trauma and Severe Wounds

When dogs experience severe wounds or traumatic injuries, damaged tissues may struggle to receive enough oxygen for proper healing. At El Paso Animal Emergency Center, we offer hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) to help support recovery in appropriate cases. By delivering oxygen in a pressurized chamber, HBOT increases oxygen availability in injured tissues, which may reduce swelling and support the body's natural healing process.

HBOT may be beneficial for dogs experiencing:

• Severe wounds or injuries with damaged tissue
• Crush injuries and significant swelling
• Burns, infections, or wounds that are slow to heal

While HBOT can complement traditional veterinary treatments, it does not replace emergency care, surgery, or wound management when needed. Our veterinary team evaluates each dog's condition to determine whether this therapy is appropriate. Results vary, and evidence in veterinary patients is still developing. Our team will discuss potential benefits and risks before recommending treatment.

If your dog has suffered a traumatic injury or is struggling with a severe wound, contact El Paso Animal Emergency Center to learn whether hyperbaric oxygen therapy could support their recovery. Visit us in El Paso, TX, or call (915) 209-7016 to speak with our team today.
