Why does HBO therapy show promise in helping cerebral palsy patients? First, let’s confirm some previously mentioned facts. Cerebral palsy is the result of damage to motor areas in the brain. This in turn disrupts the brain’s ability to properly control the movement of the body’s muscles. The problem of CP lies in the brain, not the muscles. What causes this damage? A National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) study found that in most cases of CP, no direct cause for the damage could be found. In other words, cerebral palsy is a result of the brain not properly communicating with the muscles because the brain has been damaged for one reason or another.
Documentation now exists that clearly shows that HBO therapy can dramatically improve some CP symptoms. For example, a study in Brazil1 revealed a 50 percent reduction in spasticity of 94 percent (218 patients) of the patients involved in the study. Improvements have also been seen with vision, hearing, and speech. However, one should understand that improvement, if any, will vary from patient to patient. (Also see the CP section of our Patient’s Feedback page for one parent’s view of how HBO therapy at the Chico Hyperbaric Center positively affected her child.)
