It's obviously true that room treatments don't add bass. But by reducing frequency response peaks, resonances, and reverb, the subjective impression is that the weaker parts of the frequency response are comparatively stronger.
Also, a perceived lack of bass can be a setup issue, due to placement of either the speakers or listening position in a null. Room treatment of the right type and placement can help reduce the severity of nulls or even shift their frequency a little bit, particularly in the upper bass.
