ASK DR. DAVID: I have done research on the effects of HBOT with autistic children. Why do you think elevated pressure treatment is equally effective?

As you know from your research, hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) has been used to treat autism for several years.  Medical researchers have discovered that autistic brains exhibit inflammation in those sectors that control mood, speech, academic performance, social function, and even OCD-like behaviors.

Brain tissue is susceptible to malfunction when inflammation occurs. Since hyperbaric treatment and elevated-pressure treatment, like you find in The Rejuvenator, are known to reduce inflammation, it stands to reason that when inflammation of the brain is treated by pressure treatment, more normal brain functions return.

ASK DR. DAVID: Do other medical professionals believe in the use of pressure therapy as a means to reduce inflammation?

Over the past 10 years, the medical profession has gradually acknowledged the therapeutic effects of pressure therapy. I, personally, know other individuals involved in the field of medicine who recognize pressure therapy for a variety of medical conditions.

ASK DR. DAVID: I understand that you did a non-placebo medical study with some of your patients. What was the outcome?

My wife, a nurse practitioner, and I did a clinical study in 2004 and 2005 that included 92 of our patients who suffered primarily from rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and fibromyalgia. The subjects did two daily pressure-therapy treatments for fourteen days.  The results were significant. By the fourteenth day (the end of the study), 82% of the patients reported significant to total pain relief and increased quality of life because of this relief. Some of the participants purchased Rejuvenators, and are still using them with continued success.

ASK DR. DAVID: When did you begin working with baro-therapy? Why did you become involved?

In 2003, a friend who suffered from an acute case of rheumatoid arthritis introduced me to baro-therapy.  He was under a rheumatologist’s care and taking several different prescription drugs. He noticed that when he traveled from low- to high-pressure weather conditions he was in less pain.  He told me that after just three days of treatment in The Rejuvenator, his pain was gone and he had stopped taking all of his arthritis medication. At his urging, my wife and I agreed to participate in a demonstration of this elevated-pressure chamber.

At the same time, my wife, a nurse practitioner, was experiencing a lot of pain from a chronic lower-back arthritic condition for which she regularly took a prescription medication.  She agreed to a 45-minute treatment as part of the demonstration.  When she completed the treatment, her pain was gone; it did not return for four days. Our friend sent us a Rejuvenator; my wife uses it daily, and no longer has to take any pain medication.

I decided to conduct some clinical research on a group of my arthritis-suffering patients because of my wife’s dramatic decrease in pain. The participants experienced similar, astounding results.
