To Whom It May Concern: Hyperbaric
therapy has been my saving grace. I
have been battling endometriosis for many years. Endometriosis is a condition
in which endothelial cells grow outside the uterus. Although this would not seem
to be a problem, it is very painful. The endometrial tissues/cells
swell and try to shed themselves from the area in which they
are attached each month. Because the tissues continue to multiple they will
eventually need to be removed surgically. Other than surgical removal of the
tissues, hormone therapy is used to shrink the cells and stop the process of
swelling, shedding, and spreading. The menopausal hormone therapy used to treat
endometriosis is as bad as or worse than the
condition. After
an unsuccessful round of hormone therapy, I was in more pain than ever. I had
scheduled surgery for the second week of March; however, one week
before surgery I tore the cartilage in my knee. Because of the knee injury, I
would have to wait on the surgery for my endometriosis. My
sister finally convinced me to try hyperbaric therapy. I am so thankful that
I was able to get in the chamber. Not only did it help relieve a lot of the pain
and swelling from my endometriosis, it aided me with my knee surgery.
With three to four sessions per week, I was ready for my second
surgery in just three weeks. The results I encountered with hyperbaric therapy are simply
amazing. The incisions from my knee surgery healed very
quickly with a barely noticeable scar. Even my physical therapist commented on
my scars and progress. The
results I encountered with my second surgery were no less amazing than the
first. I feel that the anesthesia was removed from my system faster.
The swelling was minimal and was gone quickly and the scars again
are barely noticeable. I am so thankful that I had hyperbaric therapy available to
assist me with my surgeries this year. I
am sold on the benefits of hyperbaric therapy for surgical recovery and as
important tool to maintain good health and in the anti-aging battle. Sincerely, Tammie
