Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) as an alternative therapy and treatment for the following conditions:
* Cerebral Palsy for preemies and children
* Brain Injuries for adults and children
* Stroke Recovery, Rehabilitation
* Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
* Multiple Sclerosis
* ADD/ADHD and Autism
The late Dr. Neubauer was one of the pioneers who began working with hyperbaric oxygen therapy for stroke rehabilitation, Cerebral Palsy and other neurological conditions. He performed SPECT scans and found that his patients had areas of the brain that were severely damaged however the immediately surrounding areas showed low levels of activity. These same areas, “The Recoverable Brain” showed increased levels of activity following a series of Hyperbaric sessions.
Our clients sit in a large hyperbaric chamber as we slowly increase the surrounding pressure, the sensation is similar to what you experience in an aircraft while it is descending. You may feel a slight pressure building in your ears which is generally easily cleared by swallowing, yawning etc. There should be no pain or discomfort! Children or adults can take a drink into the chamber to help encourage them to swallow and this is usually enough to clear their ears.
Once the final pressure is reached a clear vinyl hood (Plastic Bubble) is placed over their head and they are given 100% Oxygen to breathe. By increasing the ambient pressure Oxygen molecules are squeezed closer together thus allowing higher concentrations to be transferred into the blood stream and carried throughout the body, to the central nervous system, muscles, bones etc. Even the plasma, the fluid that carries the red blood cells can also absorb and carry Oxygen into very fine vessels or partially blocked vessels that the large red blood cells may not be able to pass.
