HBOT free in Florida!

Hyperbaric Center for Children in Florida has established the goal of

opening the nation's first HBOT Center for Children with all children

receiving free HBOT. The concept for the Center is to have 12

hospital-grade chambers along with diagnostic services and equipment.

This website is a clearing house for information about our efforts to

create a center to treat and care for children suffering from many

ailments that can benefit from the use of hyperbaric oxygen (HBOT). We

have many testimonials and scientific evidence that shows children

with Cerebral Palsy, Autism, Shaken Baby Syndrome and other special

needs can benefit from these treatments.

The CP Endowment has pioneered a new direction with HBOT for children.

We use portable hyperbaric oxygen chambers to treat children with

Cerebral Palsy, Autism and other neurological disorders. Treatments

with the HBOT have been so successful that the first portable chamber

was purchased in 2000. For the next five years, this chamber was

delivered to the home where the children resided and remained there

for at least three weeks, with parents operating the chamber. At the

end of the period, the chamber would be moved to the next child on the

list and after several months the chamber would be returned to the

first child's home and the schedule would repeat itself. While this

program greatly improved these children's lives and that of the

care-givers, its weakness was that only one child per day could be

treated.

In 2006, fund-raisers were held to purchase a second chamber, planned

to be operated at a location whereby several children a day could be

scheduled for its use. The HBOT program was so successful that by the

end of the year, a total of five portable chambers were in operation;

two in St. sburg, one each in Pinellas Park and Tampa, and on the

east coast of the state. This allowed up to 25 children per day to

receive these treatments.
