FAQ Friday 💬 | Do I need to do treatments everyday?

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy works best when sessions are done back-to-back. Daily treatments keep oxygen levels high in your body, fueling healing, fighting infection, and supporting new blood vessel growth.

When sessions are missed, that healing momentum slows down, almost like hitting pause on your recovery.

✨ Consistency matters: consecutive HBOT sessions = stronger results and faster healing.

Can oxygen make cancer treatment work better?

In this short video, we explore how tumor hypoxia (low oxygen levels inside tumors) can reduce the effectiveness of certain cancer treatments, including immunotherapy.

You’ll learn:
✅ What immunotherapy is and how it works
✅ Why low oxygen in tumors (hypoxia) matters
✅ How hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) raises oxygen levels in tissues
✅ Why researchers are studying HBOT as a way to potentially improve treatment outcomes

While HBOT is FDA-approved for conditions like radiation injury, non-healing wounds, and skin graft complications, its use alongside immunotherapy is still in the research stage and not yet an approved treatment.

📍 About Restorative Oxygen Care

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) delivers 100% oxygen at increased pressure, allowing oxygen to dissolve directly into plasma, not just red blood cells. This creates a powerful boost in oxygen delivery to tissues with limited blood flow, supporting faster healing, reducing inflammation, and fighting infection.

In this video, you’ll get an idea how pressurized oxygen moves into plasma, improving tissue repair and recovery.

Did you know many solid tumors have low oxygen levels (called hypoxia)?

Hypoxia can make cancer cells more aggressive and harder to treat, and it can reduce the effectiveness of immunotherapy.

Researchers are investigating whether oxygenation through HBOT can improve treatment response.

This could be a game-changer.

What Is Cancer Immunotherapy?🧬 Immunotherapy: A New Era in Cancer Treatment

Unlike chemotherapy or radiation, immunotherapy helps your body fight cancer using its own immune system.

It works by training immune cells, especially T-cells to recognize and destroy cancer cells more effectively.

There are different types of immunotherapy, including:
✅ Checkpoint inhibitors (like PD-1 or PD-L1 blockers)
✅ CAR T-cell therapy
✅ Cancer vaccines
✅ Cytokine treatments

These therapies are helping more patients live longer and with fewer side effects.

At Restorative Oxygen Care, we’re watching emerging research on how oxygen may improve the effectiveness of immunotherapy, especially in tumors with low oxygen levels (called hypoxia).

FAQ Friday
💡 What exactly does Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) do?

HBOT helps your body heal by delivering 100% oxygen in a pressurized environment, allowing oxygen to saturate your blood plasma and reach areas that are injured, inflamed, or oxygen-starved. It stimulates healing, reduces swelling, fights infection, and helps grow new blood vessels.

At Restorative Oxygen Care, patients receive hospital-grade HBOT in a comfortable outpatient setting, guided by experienced staff who are with you every step of the way.

👉 Curious if HBOT could help you or someone you love? We’re happy to answer your questions.
