Treat seizures with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Sun, 08/26/2007 - 22:31
I haven't seen anything here about treating seizure disorders with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT). I'm really quite surprised. I've seen amazing successes for my daughter as well as others with seizure disorders since beginning HBOT treatments several years ago. Has anyone had any experience with HBOT?

You mentioned that your daughter has had placental stem cell twice and that it helped. Can you tell me where you had the procedures. I didn't realize that maintenance treatment was also recommended. We are seriously considering it but can't find any information.

Hi, I was a diving instructor and worked in the hyperbaric situations. I have the FULL details on every last piece of the hyperbaric treatments on PTSD and on Epilepsy. If anybody should ever need to know anything or want somebody to double check the information they have been given then please feel free to contact me anytime at all. Email at tonycross@tonycross.karoo.co.uk Please mark your email ABOUT EPILEPSY in capital letters as I do get a world of spam in my mailbox and then can find you all easy and take you through it step by step. IS IT SAFE ? YES WHEN A PROFESSIONAL WORKING THE DIVE CHAMBER ! DOES IT WORK ! YES ! I have it right down to the last detail including tests on animals and soldiers. How it flows through the body the pressure mechanics and I was a teacher in diving and can teach you easily enough how all of the science works. I used to teach kids as young as twelve so NO it is not hard to learn at all. Some of the medical functions can take a little bit more to get your head but not really that hard. So anything want to ask or learn about it then jsut let me know......HEY....WE ALL EVOLVED OUT OF THE OCEAN THE BRAIN THEN DEVELOPED FROM THEIR ! Dolphins and Whales are vastly intelligent caring and feeling animals because they evolved on land before going BACK to the ocean......Just how far down the rabbit hole do you want to ask. Does become all frogs and dolphins to really understand it all but that is where we all evolved from. The pieces of the brain like that of the amygdala where in the creatures coming out of the ocean and the rest of our brain then developed on top of that......Just click your heels three times and say there is no place like home.

One last thing to add to that for you all......don't forget to take a book. Get's very boring inside some hyperbaric chambers and because of the oxygen levels and pressurized environment things like pocket TV's and phones not going to be allowed in there....Could be in there for a while on some treatments, but it is just read and breathe oxygen. Due to the pressurization need to be pressurized slowly and come decompress slowly......Will need to pop your ears inside like being on a plane....but it is like being on a plane with no TV so take a good book.
