Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Patients Suffering from Radiation Damage in Marin County: A Proven Path to Healing
At Advanced Hyperbaric Recovery, we work with patients every day who have completed cancer treatment—but are still dealing with the lasting effects of radiation.
If you’re experiencing symptoms like bladder pain, non-healing wounds, or jaw complications after radiation therapy, you’re not alone—and more importantly, you have options.
One of the most effective, evidence-based treatments available today is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT).
Understanding Radiation Damage After Cancer Treatment
Radiation therapy is highly effective at targeting cancer—but it can also affect healthy tissue.
Reduced blood flow
Scar tissue formation (fibrosis)
Chronic low oxygen levels
This condition affects approximately 5–15% of patients (Bennett et al., Cochrane Review).
How Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Helps You Heal
HBOT delivers 100% medical grade oxygen under slight pressure, coaxing the oxygen up to 4 times further into the tissues.
This supports healing by:
Stimulating new blood vessel growth (angiogenesis)
Improving collagen production
Enhancing immune function
Restoring oxygen levels
