The mystery of autism is compounded by the mystery of not knowing how to solve the problem or at least alleviate the symptoms. But portable hyperbaric oxygen chambers have been successful as one kind of therapy for children with autism, earning them an excellent reputation in the medical world.

Autism is a brain development disorder that is getting diagnosed more frequently in young children. It causes behavioral abnormalities, such that a child may not function well socially and may only be able to grow up codependent on others. Though autism does not technically intensify after it develops (usually within a child’s first two years), as a child gets older it may be harder and harder for him to act normally. The child’s life can be very difficult without some kind of effective treatment, which is why autism and hyperbaric oxygen chambers (HBOT) often go together.

HBOT stands for hyperbaric oxygen therapy, the treatment from hyperbaric chambers. The use of these is quite simple; patients usually lie in the chambers for a short period of time—the duration and frequency depends on the patient’s ailment and the patient himself. Oxygen in the chamber is pressurized at a higher level than atmospheric pressure, so more oxygen is entering the bloodstream than usual and there is more oxygen in the body’s tissue. With more and more treatments over time, the symptoms of patients with autism have been significantly alleviated.

You might have been told to breathe very deeply before taking a test or giving a speech, because with more oxygen in the brain, there is less swelling and buildup of fluid. The brain can work more efficiently with more oxygen, so the same idea can be applied to a hyperbaric oxygen chamber. With the help of HBOT, children start to behave more normally in social situations, responding to questions and commands and even communicating with parents. Some also respond with positive results improved physical movement and less aggressive behavior. Children who were in school showed that they were performing better academically and socially with their peers.

Hyperbaric therapy is not just used for children or those with autism. Athletes, diabetics, those who have had a stroke, and some with ADD or ADHD have found them useful, among others. Some have even used them as simply a general health booster, similar to taking advantage of a very concentrated oxygen bar.

Though the hyperbaric oxygen chambers are used to cure or help treat many diseases or disorders, their results for those with autism may be the most profound. For parents of an autistic child, it’s heartbreaking to watch a child suffer statically, not improving or regressing, so HBOT can be a dream come true. Finally, there is a method that will show results and possibly go the farthest in helping heal the afflicted.
