Cancer and Hyperbarics

HBOT is currently used in conjunction with conventional cancer treatments like radiation and chemotherapy to stimulate tumor regression and reduce the side effects of treatment. Cancer cells are able to grow in low-oxygen environments, whereas normal healthy cells can’t. Therefore, in these environments, cancer cells easily overtake the healthy ones. In high oxygen environments, the tumors are weakened and less aggressive.

Enhance “Conventional” Cancer Therapies & Treatments 

  • Reduces Tumor Hypoxia (low oxygen that they “like”)

  • Better Radiation Therapy Results

  • Improves Chemotherapy Outcome

  • Enhances Brain Treatment

  • Decreases Tumor Drug Resistance 

  • Allows for Optimal Therapy Dosage to be Attained

  • Increases Post-Op Fibroblast Activation

Reduce Side Effects of “ Conventional” Cancer Therapies & Treatments 

  • Reduces Radiation Therapy Side Effects 

  • Decreases Chemotherapy Side Effects

  • Accelerates Post-operative Healing & Prevents Infection

  • Reduces Chemo-Brain Syndrome Symptoms

Enhance IV Cancer treatments 

  • Increased Intravenous Vitamin C Therapy Effect

  • Enhances Chemotherapy Uptake

Reduce Tumor Aggressiveness 

  • Weakens Hypoxic Tumors

  • Targets Metastatic Tumors

Increases Natural Killer Cell Activity and Function 

  • Increases Oxy-Radical Production

  • Amplifies Apoptosis Effect (killing of “bad” or “broken” cells

  • Regresses Tumor Volume

Cancer Prevention 

  • Decreases Inflammatory Markers

  • Normalizes Intracellular Oxygen Levels 

  • Stimulates Cellular Detoxification

  • Reduces Risk of Pathogenic Inflammatory-Related Tumors

  • Supports Cellular Energy Processes for Optimal DNA Repair
