Insomnia is about the difficulty in initiating and maintaining sleep. A term that is often used to indicate any and all stages of sleep loss. To be correct about it, insomnia is not a disorder it is a symptom.

There are different kinds of insomnia. There is Sleep Onset Insomnia which is defined as a disorder in which the major sleep episode is delayed in relation to one’s desired clock time that results in symptoms of difficulty in awakening at the desired time.

There is also Idiopathic Insomnia. Idiopathic Insomnia is a lifelong inability to achieve adequate sleep that is presumably caused by an abnormality of the neurological control of the sleep-wake system. This type of insomnia is long standing and commonly beginning in early childhood sometimes even since birth.

But whatever the insomnia may be there is now an alternative medication in treating insomnia and it is called hyperbaric oxygen treatment. Hyperbaric oxygen treatment involves a treatment where the insomniac is put inside a sealed hyperbaric chamber and breathing in 100% pure oxygen. The oxygen is 1.5 to 3 times normal atmospheric pressure thus making the intake of oxygen faster. The treatment has already been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to treat insomnia.

What is also good about it is that hyperbaric chambers can be bought or rent thus having the chance where you can get the treatment right at home. There are single and double bag hyperbaric chambers that are available so you can choose what size is convenient for you.

So if you got insomnia or know someone who has, try talking to them about hyperbaric oxygen treatment. Spread the good news.

It is currently affecting an estimated 500,000 people in the United States. It is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that causes inflammation and swelling of the digestive tract. It can affect any part of the GI tract. It is a lifelong condition. It is called Crohn’s disease and it is also one of the disease that hyperbaric oxygen treatment has been able to help cure.

What is hyperbaric oxygen treatment and how can it help cure crohn’s disease? Hyperbaric oxygen treatment is a safe, non-evasive and non-toxic treatment that uses 100% oxygen inside a hyperbaric chamber. The oxygen inside the hyperbaric chamber is pressurized 2-3 times greater than the normal atmosphere thus allowing the skin and lungs to absorb more oxygen in less than an hour.

By absorbing pressurized oxygen a patient with Crohn’s disease will experience a lesser amount of inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract, lower sedimentation values and lower CRP and WBC values. The pain is also alleviated, weight and appetite also improves.

And because there are already hyperbaric chambers for sale and for rent. The treatment has also become very much available and accessible.

Hyperbaric oxygen treatment really has a lot of advantages for the Crohn’s disease patients. There is no more need to go to the hospital to get the treatment. There is also no surgery involved. The rise of hyperbaric oxygen treatment as one of the top alternative medicines is really good news to people who have been suffering long enough to Crohn’s disease. It really gives these people hope and a reason to smile.
