You may be thinking of the hyperbaric chamber, for hyperbaric oxygen treatment.

It could be a hyperbaric chamber... inside, the environment is extremely high in oxygen, the burns/wounds heal when exposed to such an environment. the microorganisms that cause infection in these types of wounds die, thus assisting in the healing process as well!

Hyperbaric chamber. Hasn't really been proven to help with tissue healing.
