Benefits of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) in Prostate Cancer
In prostate cancer cells:
• Increases the number of stem cells circulating in the body
• Creates an oxygen-rich environment which is unfavorable to the growth and propagation of prostate
cancer cells
• Does not promote the growth of new blood vessels that may feed the tumor
• Inhibits cell division causing accumulation of cells in the resting phase of the cell cycle

In combination with conventional treatments:
• HBO helps with pre-surgical preparation and speeds up post surgical recovery
• HBO potentiates cancer chemotherapy agents that cause damage to DNA: Doxorubicin and Taxol
• Improves the success rate of radiation therapy
• HBO strengthens body immune system and minimizes radio and chemotherapy-related complications

Stops bleeding complications in the prostate and in the urinary bladder after being
treated with radiotherapy – even when all other measures have failed

Stops disease progression of radiation-induced proctitis /cystitis

Improves late morbidity scores 7 years after radiation cystitis/proctitis

The benefit of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in spinal injuries:
• Increases oxygen delivery in injured tissues
• Reduces pain and referred pain
• Improves neurological deficit
• Improves sensory deficit (reduces numbness)
• Relieves functional muscle spasm
• Reduces muscle fatigue and improves exercise capacity
• Suppress inflammation
• Improves joint mobility and increases the range of motion
• Strengthens the immune system

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can be effective, not only in acute but also in chronic stages of tinnitus and hearing loss. Benefits of HBO in treatment of hearing loss are :
1:Restoration of oxygen concentration and blood flow to the inner ear for enhanced healing
2: Improved microcirculation of ear cochlea reducing tinnitus, hearing loss and vertigo
3: Minimizing the need for medications and their side effects
4: Increasing the efficiency of antibiotic and steroid therapy when needed
5: Improved general health

During hyperbaric oxygen therapy, the body absorbs up
to 20 times more oxygen than normal. This activates natural mechanisms of healing, which may be slower due to injury, overexertion, illnesses, and/or disease.

High pressure, coupled with the 100% oxygen environment within a hyperbaric chamber, forces large amounts of oxygen, up to 20 times, deep into tissues: even when circulation is severely compromised.

Immediate super saturation of blood with extra oxygen will rapidly reduce CO in the blood and reverse tissue hypoxia for organ preservation.

Use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy before and after UV exposure decreases the wrinkle appearance. Hyperbaric oxygen sessions are 90 minutes long. Treatment exposure to pure oxygen is done on a daily weekday basis at certain ATA

COVID-19 - hyperbaric oxygen therapy

We may be looking at COVID-19 from the wrong angle.

Dr. Katz, Medical Director at Hyperbaric Medical Solutions explains that COVID-19 is currently being treated as a pneumonia, but should be treated as pure hypoxia, a condition in which the body is deprived of oxygen.

He further said the lungs are not failing and it’s not a ventilation problem, stating specifically that “the problem is the interface of alveoli, the lung sacs, and the blood’s ability to carry oxygen. That's where we need to focus.”

Dr. Katz continues to say, "hyperbaric oxygen increases the amount of oxygen carried in the blood stream and does not depend on hemoglobin. Additionally, it decreases the inflammatory cytokine storm we are seeing in COVID-19 patients. The hope would be that, in using hyperbaric oxygen therapy, we would be able to shut down an inflammatory response and reverse the need for ventilation.”

Dr. Katz would like to see more investigation with hyperbaric oxygen therapy—mainly because it can decrease inflammation and carry increased oxygen into the bloodstream, allowing more oxygen to perfuse deep tissue and organs. HBOT being used to treat disease isn't new. In 1918, HBOT was used to successfully treat the deadly Spanish flu.
