Has anyone heard of using Hyperbaric Chambers to treat MS?
I was reading one of those weird magazines where they cater to the uber wealthy. One article was about purchasing and using a Hyperbaric Chamber on a daily basis. MS was the first of a list of uses for the chamber.
I remember my dad was in one alot when he had gangrene from diabetes before he passed away.
The air under pressure helped the healing. It really worked for that. I just have never heard of anyone using it for MS but I am always the last to know so maybe this has been discussed already?
I searched and didn't find it.
They advertised filtered air under pressure, not pure O2 as I thought hyperbarics are.
But that is as much as I know about the subject, I just have never seen it in all the reading I have done for years.
No price listed of course. In this magazine, if you have to ask, you don't need it.
Oh, cool. They had this $14,000.00 excercise machine that would give you a complete cardio and everything work out in 4 minutes!!
So that you wouldn't have to spend 30 minutes or 45 minutes working out!
Hilarious. Made right there in LA.
Maybe you LA guys know about them. Weird looking contraptions.
Anyway, just wondering. Thanks! Rose ;)

I used to go to an alternative treatment ms centre in cambridgeshire uk, and they had one of the tanks.
It is a non profitable organization, and us patients only had to pay the running cost of the place.
i never went in the tank, i was either pregnant or skint when we lived there. but alot of the other ms'ers sworn by it. they went in a couple of times a week.
even if it wasn't expencive there, it all ads up for a group of patients with disabilities and reduced incomes.
i'm not sure if it is a cure, but i think it makes you feel better.
