Oxy Health Corporation has revolutionized the Hyperbarics Industry with its new take on an old thing. With the aim of making a mild pressure hyperbaric device mass-accessible, company engineers set out to create a chamber that is portable, durable, and more importantly affordable. And the Oxy Health crew succeeded. By redesigning the ingenious Gamow Mountain Bag under strict quality standards, engineers produced a superior portable low pressure hyperbaric chamber that has captured the imagination and interest of the medical community.
Today, the company continues to focus on new research avenues for the application of low pressure hyperbarics. To this end, Oxy Health provides an alternative modality with which physicians may engage in hyperbaric therapy studies--without the usual contra-indication of high cost.

Autism Treatment Center of America - Mr. Kaufman, CEO of the Autism Treatment Center of America™, will provide concrete, bold strategies you can implement now for your child’s immediate gain. As a child, Mr. Kaufman was diagnosed with severe autism and recommended for lifelong institutionalization. Instead, his parents developed The Son-Rise Program, which enabled their son to completely recover from his autism. Now an international speaker and Ivy League graduate with a degree in Biomedical Ethics, Mr. Kaufman bears no traces of his former condition (and is the subject of a book and movie). His lecture focuses on some innovative, outside-the-box techniques you can use today to help your child: move beyond stimming (without you stopping or discouraging your child’s behavior), learn new skills (without you having to push or pressure), and, most especially, to form meaningful, caring relationships with others. |

Wisconsin Integrative Hyperbaric Center Wisconsin Integrative Hyperbaric Center or as many call it " A Place of Grace " was created because of a little girl by the name of " Gracie" whose life was saved by Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. Gracie's life until the age of three consisted of the world's best hospitals and limited time at home with her family. At the age of 3 years old Gracie was blind, failing to thrive, and fed through a feeding tube (she weighed 11 pounds at age 3); she suffered from seizures, infantile spasms, and underwent several surgical procedures. Gracie's family researched Hyperbaric Therapy for over a year and though the research showed nothing for children with Mitochondrial Disorders, Gracie showed many of the same characteristics as a CP and TBI Children. Gracie's real journey began here, after mainstream medicine offered little hope for Grace. Hyperbaric medicine was her last chance for life. HBOT not only saved Gracie's life, but gave her back to her family. |
