Cancer
Cancer is a complex group of diseases characterized by the uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells in the body. It can affect virtually any part of the body and may cause symptoms like fatigue, weight loss, pain, or organ dysfunction depending on the type and stage. While primary treatment typically includes surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, or immunotherapy, patients often experience a range of side effects and complications from both the disease and its treatments.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is not a cure for cancer, but it may play a supportive role in cancer care. By delivering high levels of oxygen to the body’s tissues, HBOT can help promote healing after radiation therapy, reduce tissue damage, manage chronic wounds, and support recovery from surgical interventions. In some cases, it may also improve quality of life by reducing pain, inflammation, and fatigue associated with cancer treatment.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Benefits
Much like bubbles packed into a soda can, the pressurized oxygen in a hyperbaric chamber fills your bloodstream with revitalizing oxygen. This oxygen travels throughout your body to:
Repair, rebuild, and restore injuries
Stimulate cellular energy production (ATP)
Support regrowth of nerves, cartilage, and bone
Control inflammation, swelling, and pain
Fight off infections and pathogens
Rejuvenate skin, collagen, and organs for anti-aging effects
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy at Home
For those living with cancer, HBOT at home offers daily access to therapy without ongoing clinic visits. It’s an affordable and convenient option that helps reduce inflammation, improve tissue oxygenation, and support overall well-being. With regular use, home hyperbaric oxygen chambers can be an empowering addition to long-term care.
