How do I schedule a consultation with Doctor Thermos for HBOT?
Consultation with our office can be scheduled by telephoning our office and speaking with our Office Manager and Patient-Care Coordinator Sandra Saavedra. your examination is included in our Consultation fees. We can provide you with a Superbill that you can make application for reimbursement to your Insurance Company – as Life-Source Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is not contracted with any of the Insurance Providers. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is new to me. How long has it been used for Medical Conditions? In the 1950’s, HBOT was used to Oxygenate the brain while the Heart was stopped during open-heart surgery. In the 1960’s, HBOT was noted to have positive effects on problem wound healing. Of Course, Carbon Monoxide poisoning and treatment for the ‘Bends’ have been known and utilized for an extended period of time. The History of HBOT is very interesting (and you’ll note very Political . . .), and many sources can be reviewed on the internet.
