I did a search and nothing came up. Thanks! Shakerz25, I don't know your name, sorry. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is used to treat many ailments. Basically the person is placed in a chamber which uses 100% oxygen and increased atmospheric pressure to dissolve oxygen into the blood and body tissues. The main uses are to promote healing. ( Also it is used when SCUBA divers suffer from the Bends). This stimulates the growth of new blood vessels and improves blood flow to vital organs and all body tissues. It also stimulates the body to produce the body's internally produced antioxidants. It aids in the treatment of infection by enhancing white blood cell action. It is used in many chronic degenerative health problems. Some being Peripheral Vascular Disease, diabetic ulcers, wound healing, Multiple Sclerosis, burns, Sickle Cell Anemia, Fibromyalgia, RSD and many many more. Has this been suggested by your doctor? Hope this has helped, take care, Love Jai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
