A hyperbaric chamber is a small vessel which can be used as a diving chamber, or can be used on land to increase air pressure. It can be used to medically treat divers who were surfaced too quickly by re-pressurizing them to force the nitrogen in their blood to return to solution. Following this, they are decompressed slowly, which keeps the nitrogen in the blood in solution.
Hyperbaric chambers can also be used in a medical technique known as Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT). This therapy has been shown to positively affect cerebral palsey, athough the mechanism is still as of yet undetermined.
Some early experiments with Multiple Sclerosis patients showed that HBOT may help improve bowel and bladder control. However, a review by the Cochrane Collaboration discovered, after ten trials and 21 analyses, that there was "no consistent evidence to confirm a beneficial effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for the treatment of multiple sclerosis and [they] do not believe routine use is justified"
my brother has multiple sclerosis :P
Unfortunately, Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a permanent disease.
See multiple sclerosis. there's lots of help in the web
The Oxygen tank rumor was a hoaw orchestrated by Michael Jackson himself, with the help of his publicist at the time, Michael Levine. It was a publicity move, designed to get free press coverage. In 1986 a tabloid newspaper reported that Michael was using a Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber to sleep in; as it was claimed that sleeping in a hyperbaric chamber would slow the ageing process. However MJ never owned a Hyperbaric Chamber, much less slept in one.
Unrelated to any evaluation of the heart, the Valsalva maneuver also is taught to patients with multiple sclerosis who are unable to fully empty the bladder (flaccid bladder).
Hyperbaric treatment involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber. This increased pressure can help increase the amount of oxygen in the bloodstream, which can promote healing in conditions like decompression sickness, non-healing wounds, and carbon monoxide poisoning.
LDN can help multiple sclerosis. It can also treat numerous other disorders. It was first used on people with AIDS. A recent study showed improvement in people's health when using LDN.
Reflexology has been used both with and without essential oils to areas with pain and the symptoms of multiple sclerosis.
It can certainly help out a bit if you have underlying conditions that are treatable by proper nutrition.
No. It actually increases memory, cures cluster headaches, and it has shown to decrease tremors in those with Multiple Sclerosis. Psilocybin has also been know to have positive effects on depression, and current studies have gotten grants to do research on these medicinal values.
In dry welding for underwater welding, a hyperbaric chamber is used to create a dry, pressurized environment for the welder to work in. The chamber is sealed to prevent water from entering and is pressurized to balance the external water pressure. The welder enters the chamber through an airlock system and performs welding tasks with the help of specialized equipment and gas supply systems.
A hyperbaric chamber is a special chamber that they put divers into to help them cure something they can get from diving called "The Bends". When you put the diver in the chamber it increases the pressure surrounding the diver's body. The high pressure forces forces the gas bubbles to re-dissolve back into the blood and tissues. By very slowly decreasing the pressure back to normal, the gas in the persons body slowly escapes.
