A female patient with the diagnosis of disc herniation treated with hyperbaric oxygenation for 6 months was presented. 2.3 absolute atmospheres were applied with a time of isopressure of 50 min. She received 15 sessions of treatment, which were repeated at 3 and 6 months. The evolution of the patient was satisfactory, since the paravertebral pain and the neurological symptomatology were reduced.
