Yes and thanks, ! I missed pointing that out and agree wholeheartedly. I

ma sorry about your experience with IAHP and know of several others that have

had similar problems with them. it seems again that the " once you have a

hammer, everything looks like a nail " affects them too. I think they could do

well by endorsing HBOT

Best wishes and much love, Ken

Ken,

There's another advantage to masking that is often overlooked and may

actually be of much greater, long-term benefit than the " burst of O2. "

Within 10 seconds of the masking all the air is depleted, and the child

then begins breathing their own CO2. The breathing becomes deeper and

stronger as the seconds pass. By the 60th second, the child is taking deep,

deep breaths.

This exercises and strengthens the child's diaphragm (sp?) in a way that

nothing else can. Brain-injured children don't run around in the backyard

like well-children and the masking gives them a way to deepen their

respiration unlike any other method.

When we were in the midst of Jimmy's IAHP program we masked him every five

minutes from the time he woke up until the time he went to bed at night,

about 90 times a day.

We still mask him about 30 times a day.

The result is he can breathe deeper, talk more, sing more, and have a

better quality of respiration than he would have otherwise.

When we did Jimmy's initial round of hyperbaric oxygen, he was masking

right up to the moment the door of the chamber shut because I wanted him to

be able to breathe as deep as possible.

Sadly, it is the masking that pediatric neurologists will often point to as

evidence of the " quackery " of IAHP--because the parents are " putting a

plastic bag over their kid's head. "

Of course, The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential has its

problems too. They wouldn't allow us to stay on their program and also do

HBOT.

Hi my name is Jodie and I have a son that is a near drown victim . I

have read Iahp's book and done hbot. I did not go to IAHP because of

the cost and the bad reviews I heard about them, but I am on a

program by a man named Pennock who was a part of the institute

and left because of differences. Basically he started with them

because he is a father of a brain injured child and he's more

interested in helping our children than making money. His program is

1/8th the cost of IAHP and it is pretty much identical. You will not

be told its your fault the program doesn't work, I was told to do

HBOT in conjunction with the program, and he will help you with in

any way he can. His book is called " rescuing your brain injured

child " . his institute is called Brain-Net. If you have any questions

let me know. Jodie F.
