Thanks for your post about Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy. At this stage, there have been no randomised clinical trials looking at the benefits of this therapy in breast cancer. While there have been good results for Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy in wound healing, we don’t know the results in people with cancer. There are some concerns that it may speed up cancer growth.

You might like to talk to the people offering the Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy and ask for the research on their treatment and breast cancer. You should then take that information to your medical oncologist and have a discussion about whether it is a safe treatment for you.
