Paul's Experience | Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBO) at St. Luke's

After successfully fighting prostate cancer with 35 rounds of radiation, Paul's cancer was in remission, but his colon and bladder had suffered burns from the treatment. To address this side effect, he turned to St. Luke's for Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBO).

For those with chronic non-healing wounds, including injuries or conditions following cancer radiation treatment, HBO can help. This medical treatment enhances the body’s natural healing process by providing patients 100% oxygen for breathing in a transparent body chamber. Pressure in the hyperbaric chamber is increased and controlled to help improve oxygen delivery to all tissues in the body. This also helps to reduce swelling, fight infection, build new blood vessels and, ultimately, produce healthy tissue.
