The opportunity to stimulate damaged brain tissues as a result of using oxygen under high pressure

The opportunity to stimulate damaged brain tissues as a result of using oxygen under high  pressure makes hyperbaric oxygen therapy an opportunity for people suffering from autism, Asperger’s syndrome or ADHD. No other treatment is able to stimulate the function of nervous system to such an extent as  HBOT, during which oxygen:

  • Reaches anoxic parts of the brain,
  • Stimulates dormant cells,
  • Restores the orderly functioning of the cells.

The centre of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in Sao Paulo

The centre of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in Sao Paulo, headed by  Machado, MD,  has been dealing with treatment of neurological patients since 1979.  During the first four years, during the work with patients suffering from neurological disorders caused by ischemia, the doctor together with his colleagues, noticed that the most noticeable and the most universal effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is reduction of spasticity. These results, among patients with pareses, have been confirmed by both test results and observations, and their consequence was a significant improval of motor skills.

Leonardo Da Vinci

Leonardo Da Vinci, fascinated with the opportunity to discover the underwater world, drew various diving appliances in around  1500, taking into account the difference in high pressure between the depths and the land. Unfortunately, his projects have never been used.
