What’s Special About Hyperbaric Oxygen?
Among the many alternative treatments available for stroke survivors, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is the most popular. HBOT does not reverse stroke deficits nor does it restore damaged tissue. However, the results may seem as though that is occuring. The articles below describe how pure, pressurized oxygen can benefit the post stroke survivor. Even if your stroke occurred years, or decades, earlier you can still reap the benefits of HBOT.
Other Forms of Air Therapy
Ozone Therapy and Hydrogen Therapy are lesser known gas treatments that are gaining popularity in the alternative treatment realm.
What to Look for in a Clinic
We cannot stress enough to find a reliable clinic that is based on research and safety. Look for providers that have been trained and certified in their specific advertised field; that are transparent in their practices, realistic in their prognosis and can explain the benefits to you without using vague terminology. Anyone promising to heal your stroke deficits is mistaken and you should be wary to place your trust in their care.
The Details of Treatment
HBOT is not cheap but it is so incredibly effective. It builds on itself and benefit comes from 30-40 sessions in a row, taking a six week break and going another round of 30-40 sessions. The owners of these clinics are passionate about the powerful effects of HBOT and often offer financing options and help finding grants to fund your treatment.
