Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy as a Treatment for Children With Cerebral Palsy and Other Forms of Brain Damage.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not approve Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) as a treatment for brain damage as yet. Therefore Hyperbarics of Hilton Head is simply providing information on the topic. Many parents who are trying HBOT for their children with brain damage are experiencing remarkable results. There are reports from parents all over the world that their children are experiencing improvement in the areas of speech, reduced spasticity, vision and hearing improvements, behavior improvements, Autistic behaviors reduced, and the reduction or stopping of seizures. Children of all ages, even adults are showing the same improvements. It is not working for all children and we have heard of a few cases in which the children showed no improvements. The children with the milder impairments seem to be showing the most improvements. There are studies in Canada and the United States going on right now to establish whether or not HBOT improves children with brain damage. The preliminary results are very encouraging!
