A member asked:
Would hyperbaric treatment help someone with cerebral palsy?
7 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
No: The injury that leads to CP has occurred & distroyed nerve pathways long before the symptoms become evident. Extra oxygen pushed by a hyperbaric chamber will not alter the process.

Research: You can read positive testimonials advertised by various hyperbaric facilities that offer hbo for treatment of cerebral palsy. "hyperbaric oxygen for children with cerebral palsy: a randomised multicentre trial." hbo-cp research group stated "these results strongly suggest that hyperbaric oxygen is an ineffective way to improve motor function in most children with cp." i trust research over>>.
