ONCOLOGICAL CONDITIONS WITH WHICH WE CAN HELP YOU

|
Benefits of breathing 100% oxygen
|
Heal radiation injury from cancer treatment
Improves the function of the immune system. Increases the release of stem cells from the bone marrow Speeds healing after cancer surgery Increases Chemosensitization of solid tumors Increases radiation sensitization of solid tumors No pro-growth effect on cancer cells Prevents and heals tissue compromised by radiation Mitigates the effects of "chemo brain" |
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for cancer patients helps enhance other treatments and healing damage caused by radiation therapy.
During therapy, a patient breathes pure oxygen in a specially designed pressurized chamber, a process designed to promote healing. |
HOW CAN HYPERBARIC THERAPY HELP TOGETHER WITH MY CONVENTIONAL TREATMENT?
Hyperbaric oxygen can increase the amount of oxygen in cancer cells, which can make it easier to kill them with radiation therapy and chemotherapy.
It is a type of radiosensitizing agent and also a type of chemosensitizing agent.
It is a type of radiosensitizing agent and also a type of chemosensitizing agent.
HOW DOES IT HELP TO PREVENT IN RADIOTHERAPY?
With radiation therapy, both cancer cells and healthy cells are attacked, damaging healthy tissue. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has been shown to help deliver oxygen and nutrients to these damaged tissues, helping these areas to grow new blood vessels (which may have been damaged during radiation) and tissues to heal. Multiple studies and both the FDA in the US as COFEPRIS endorse its use by Radionecrosis
When should i start me sessions?
We recommend starting your hyperbaric treatment as soon as you start your cancer treatment. It can be taken during radiation to mitigate its damaging effects on good cells. With chemo therapies, it is recommended to take sessions before and after the application of the treatment to mitigate side effects of conventional therapy.

¿Como ayuda el oxigeno Hiperbarica para pacientes con Cancer?El tratamiento con oxígeno presurizado se ha utilizado durante siglos. A medida que los investigadores adquieren una mayor comprensión de los cánceres, como el mesotelioma, se han debatido la utilidad y los riesgos del oxígeno hiperbárico. Debido a que el oxígeno es necesario para el crecimiento celular, los expertos originalmente pensaron que el oxígeno adicional promovería el crecimiento tumoral. Si bien la investigación sobre el oxígeno hiperbárico y los pacientes con cáncer es limitada, parece ser segura y se ha visto que no promueve el crecimiento tumoral. Existe evidencia que sugiere que la terapia con oxígeno presurizado podría inhibir el crecimiento del cáncer. Por ejemplo, algunos estudios muestran que la combinación de la oxigenoterapia con la quimioterapia puede retrasar el cáncer. Cuando no hay suficiente oxígeno, existe cierta resistencia tumoral a los medicamentos de quimioterapia. El oxígeno suplementario puede disminuir esta resistencia, haciendo que la quimioterapia sea más efectiva. Los resultados de las investigaciónes han sido mixtos; sin embargo, también hay evidencia de que el oxígeno hiperbárico también puede hacer que la radioterapia sea más eficaz. En estas situaciones, el oxígeno hiperbárico se considera un agente radiosensibilizante o quimiosensibilizador. La terapia fotodinámica, un tratamiento emergente para el mesotelioma y otros cánceres, también es muy prometedora. El procedimiento a menudo se realiza en condiciones de oxígeno hiperbárico porque el fármaco fotodinámico depende del oxígeno para atacar las células cancerosas. A veces, los pacientes con cáncer resultan lesionados por el tratamiento convencional. La radioterapia, por ejemplo, puede provocar lesiones graves. Se sabe que la terapia con oxígeno hiperbárico ayuda a curar estas lesiones. La cirugía también puede causar heridas que pueden provocar una infección o que pueden ser difíciles de curar. El tratamiento con oxígeno puede mejorar ambos problemas. |
