Allan M. Spiegel M.D. - RSD Therapy

Radiation treatment of the bladder can result in the death of tissue.

Because of the effects of radiation treatment are not immediate, it may be difficult to diagnose which symptoms are caused by recurrence or spreading of the tumor, new malignant growths, or damage caused by the radiation so many years before.

Studies have shown that radiation-induced tissue death can be effectively treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy. The best response occurred with at least 30 treatments, but it didn't matter whether these were given three, seven, or more times weekly.

How does Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy work?

In theory, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can...

 - Reduces bacterial growth
 - Preserves tissue which, untreated, may have an inadequate oxygen supply
 - Inhibits the production of toxins

Experience shows that it does the following:

 - Increases tissue oxygenation
 - stimulates tissue repair
 - and promotes the development of blood vessels into irradiated tissue

This re-vascularization restores irradiated tissue oxygenation to 80 percent of normal. This is significant. Studies indicate this blood vessel repair is permanent.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can resolve symptoms in up to 75 percent of patients.
