I work at small hyperbaric oxygen facility, and we work with Blue Cross, Blue Shield and the doctors. Most of our client-patients use write-offs for their medical expenses, including the costs of commuting. HBOT does not usually 'work' after just one or two sessions and should really be evaluated over the course of 80-120 sessions (hours). There's no quick fix when it comes to most conditions that HBOT (hyperbaric oxygen therapy) is used for. You can learn more (or call or email me) at *edit*, just outside of Boston. HBOT is very effective and a wonderful and safe complement to almost any drug and health regimen. We're hoping that autism and cerebral paslsy and others, like RSD, are going to be covered in the future. I encourage anyone with any illness to check to see if that condition can be treated with HBOT (symptoms like depression, fatique, skin diseases, neuropathy, etc. are treatable with HBOT). Mike,*edit*
