Crohn\'s disease or also known as granulomtous colitis and regional enteritis is an inflammatory disease of the digestive system. The disease affects any part of the gastrointestinal tract from mouth to anus. Because of this, the symptoms of Crohn\'s disease can vary considerably among the afflicted individuals. The main gastrointestinal symptoms of Crohn\'s disease are crampy abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite and weight loss. The disease can also cause complications outside the gastrointestinal tract such as having skin rashes, arthritis and inflammation of the eye. As scary and painful it may seem at having Crohn\'s disease, all is not hopeless. Studies have already been released that with the combination of conventional medicines and hyperbaric oxygen chamber treatment(HBOT) the disease and its symptoms can be relieved. HBOT is about patients undergoing treatment by being placed in a hyperbaric chamber where 100% oxygen is circulated. The oxygen in the chamber is pressurized so that air may be 2-3 times greater than normal. This process allows the the skin and lungs to absorb more concentrated oxygen in a short period of time. In Crohn\'s disease, HBOT limits the amount of the inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract, lowers sedimentation values, and also lowers the CRP and WBC values. The pain is alleviated, the afflicted patients weight and appetite improves and bowel movements return to normal. Although further study is to be made in order to understand HBOT\'s mechanism. It should be considered as part of the treatment of the disease especially in cases where conventional treatments have failed. It was also discovered in their trial studies that when HBOT treatment failed it was due to the reasons that HBOT was used at the later stages of the disease and for a long time before the hyperbaric oxygenation the hormonotherapy was used. So if you are interested, hyperbaric chambers are are already much available. Single bag hyperbaric chambers can be rented for one month at a $2,000 and double bag chambers at $2,675. It is also for sale at $12,900 for single bag chambers and $16,900 for double bag hyperbaric chambers. Both hyperbaric chambers measure up to 34 inches in diameter and is 105 inches long. The chamber can easily occupy both child and adult at the same time. Single bag chambers when fully inflated will stretch to 36 inches. The chamber also has extra long zippers to make entry and exit easier especially for those who are disabled. Single bag chamber can also be operated solo by anyone while the double bag hyperbaric chamber requires 2 hands to operate solo. So people who are disabled or injured will need some help to operate the double bag chamber. So start spreading this information of hope and you may even get to help someone by just talking about it.
