BRAIN SPECT SCAN STUDY
Figure A. Figure B.
In figure A., the brain belonging to an autistic child was scanned. The areas of dark blue and purple indicate low blood flow and low brain activity. After receiving hyperbaric therapy for 10 sessions, the same child was scanned again. Figure B., the areas of yellow, red and white indicate higher blood flow and greater brain activity.

The increased pressure allows the blood plasma and other liquids of the body to absorb additional oxygen thus greatly increasing oxygen uptake by the cells, tissues, glands, organs, brain, and fluids of the body. The resulting uptake of oxygen allows for increased oxygen to reach those areas where there is swelling or inflammation. At the same time, the increased oxygen may decrease swelling and inflammation. Oxygen is then utilized by the body for vital cell functions, healthier cells equals healthier tissues, and organs. The human body is capable of healing itself when it has what it needs. There is NOTHING the human body needs more than OXYGEN.
