The wonders of Oxygen Therapy - toddler's brain damage has been reversed over a year after near drowning
Physicians used a series of oxygen treatments, like hyperbaric oxygen therapy, to significantly reverse the 2-year-old's brain damage after she was in the water for 15 minutes.
To "wake up" her brain, doctors gave Carlson oxygen at a pressure higher than the general atmospheric pressure — increasing the amount of oxygen in her blood and repairing her damaged tissue in a sealed, pressurized hyperbaric chamber.
In just 10 sessions, the toddler's mother said she was back to "near normal." Carlson was able to walk and speak even better than before the accident happened. She was markedly improved in all of her neurological, motor function and cognition tests.
Near normal after just 10 treatments?
Why in the hell aren't these devices in every hospital and clinic across the nation. Just think what else these hyperbaric chambers could cure in the human body. This technology isn't new either it's been around a 100+ years.
So why haven't more hospitals adopted oxygen therapy as a way to promote healing?
Well, I'll tell you why they don't use it and that's because modern medicine revolves around the idea that the human body needs help to heal itself, which is true but big pharma promotes itself as the only way to heal the body. Modern medicine focus on teaching that to the doctors instead of promoting the idea that the human body has all the tools it needs to heal itself but sometimes it lacks the building material to do so like Oxygen, vitamins or minerals.
There's also not a lot of profit for the medical industry in curing this little girl. She would of made them thousands and thousands of dollars over the coarse of her life staying brain damaged unable to walk or talk.
I'm glad she's back to normal and maybe more children can be saved if we all speak up and share this story.

That's an incredible story and I'm glad the girl is doing better. But I wonder how much of the repairing can be attributed to the fact that she is a young girl, so there is still some hormones and other stuff floating around in her body to help repair it faster? They say babies bounce back faster...this may be one of those cases. Either way, it would be great to see more of this kind of therapy in major hospitals, like you've said.
Hard to say for sure if her age played a major part.
These chambers have been used for many years to treat burn victims of all ages and their skin heals much faster in these. All I know is the bodies self-healing mechanism is present in everyone and is capable of much more than modern medicine is willing admit.
I agree...I think there are many aspects of modern medicine where Western civilization has missed the mark. But if we can keep an open mind, maybe we will find effective methods of true healing.
I heard some medical podcast once- not sure where- maybe Patrick Timpone- the guest mentioned there used to be a whole hospital building somewhere in the Rustbelt area- that not only was devoted to Oxygen Therapy & had Hyperbaric Chambers- whole Floors & whole Wards- were sort of Hyperbolic Chamber with Extra Bariatric Pressure & Oxygen Pumped in.
Needless to say the PLACE was torn down.
