The Oxygen Revolution, Third Edition: Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT): The Definitive Treatment of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) & Other Disorders

Overview

Cutting-edge research on hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) as a gene therapy to treat traumatic brain injuries, degenerative neurological diseases, and other disorders
 
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is based on a simple idea—that oxygen can be used therapeutically for a wide range of conditions where tissues have been damaged by oxygen deprivation.
 
Inspiring and informative, The Oxygen Revolution, Third Edition is the comprehensive, definitive guide to the miracle of hyperbaric oxygen therapy. HBOT directly affects the body at the genetic level, affecting over 8,000 individual genes—those responsible for healing, growth, and anti-inflammation.
 
Dr. Paul G. Harch’s research and clinical practice has shown that this noninvasive and painless treatment can help those suffering from brain injury or such diseases as:
• Stroke
• Autism and other learning disabilities
• Cerebral palsy and other birth injuries
• Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis, and other degenerative neurological diseases
• Emergency situations requiring resuscitation, such as cardiac arrest, carbon monoxide poisoning, or near drowning
 
For those affected by these seemingly “hopeless” diseases, there is finally hope in a proven solution: HBOT.
