I have been wanting to try HBOT for at least 3 yrs now but the cost here is much higher than where you are. It's a minimum of $110.00 per session and the doc that runs the place said that I would have to go for a minimum of 40 sessions but feels that it may take 80 or more sessions. They would do 2 sessions each day. Plus I would have to travel about 6 hours to get there and hotel costs would make my total bill near $10,000.00 more or less.

I don't know how far you would have to travel but I say give it a try for £10 per session.

I too have heard mixed outcomes with HBOT and RSD. But with it being non-invasive, non-chemical... if I could afford it I would definitely give it a try.


Best of luck to you Ali and Andrea!!
My fingers are crossed and you are in my prayers!!!

Abbie

on PN has had 30 treatments in Mexico. You could PM her and ask.

I personally think it is worth the try. Just my opinion. If I had RSD I would try it.

here is the thread:

I have some links on there too.

Good luck. I hope it works for you.

Ohh but that is so wonderful Andrea

It must be a huge relief to you knowing someone with a fresh outlook is going to examine and treat Ali, and a fresh impartial outlook to examine her balance problems is huge as well.
I have heard good things about HBOT I had looked into it first to treat my own son who has CP years ago.. and lately for myself since RSD, I think you may find this site below a good one of clinical trial results of RSD and HBO treatments:

I would be very interested to see their treatment schedule that they have set up for RSD with depths, durations etc.. as a matter of fact I remember other members asking for just those details depths etc in another posting that may or may not be linked to the bottom of this page..

I am not sure if you are aware of this Andrea but at the bottom of each thread there is a listing of other threads that relate to the subject matter.. HBOT in this case, and in this way you can research other posts within all of Neurotalk's forums that are relavent to what you are reading at the time .
I didn't notice at first myself so I thought I'd bring it up in case you hadnt either lol.

Again I am so happy for you guys to be getting this opportunity now, give Ali a big hug for me that way you both get one
