Dr. Neubauer’s pioneering work in the field of the
treatment of brain injury and the experience of the Ocean Hyperbaric
Neurologic Center (OHNC) are internationally renowned. We treat
patients from all over the world, many of whom were given little or
no hope of recovery from traditional medical “experts”.
The Ocean Hyperbaric Neurologic
Center (OHNC) was the first and original facility to specialize in
the neurologic applications of hyperbaric oxygenation and the
potentially recoverable brain, treating stroke, coma, traumatic
brain injury, cerebral palsy, anoxic encephalopathy and multiple
sclerosis patients. This was also the first center in the world to
successfully treat mitochondrial disease(s) with hyperbaric oxygen.

Dr. Neubauer’s latest edition of his “best selling” book: Hyperbaric
Oxygen for Cerebral Palsy and the Brain Injured Child, 2nd
edition, available from Best Publishing).
Cumulative research from around
the world confirms the results achieved at the Ocean Hyperbaric
Neurologic Center and makes it is obvious that the future of
hyperbaric oxygenation therapy will be in the field of neurology,
neuroscience and neurorehabilitation. In many countries, the
medical profession is manipulated and controlled by the financial
stronghold and political power of the pharmaceutical industry. If
the drug companies were ever able to create a pill or a drug with
the ability to cross the blood brain barrier and saturate the
cerebrospinal fluid with oxygen, even in the absence of appropriate
blood flow, reactivate dormant, idling neurons (brain cells) and
create new capillary (tiny blood vessels) growth, thus healing the
brain, it would be considered one of the greatest advancements that
medicine has ever seen. Such a discovery would be worth billions of
dollars a year to the manufacturer.
However, such a discovery
already exists in the form of hyperbaric oxygen that would instead
save billions of dollars, as well as to afford a
quality of life to many patients for whom all hope was relinquished
by the standard medical/pharmaceutical protocols. Hyperbaric oxygen
is simply a more efficient delivery system for oxygen, the most
crucial element to life on earth and every cell of the human brain
and body. Thus, the cost effectiveness of this approach to brain
injury in both the adult and the child is phenomenal.
"Hyperbaric oxygen adhering to all the gas laws of physics delivers free
molecular oxygen to the cells for immediate metabolic use without
energy exchange, even with compromised circulation" -- Edward Teller
PhD (Father of the Hydrogen Bomb)
The
late Dr. Edward Teller (1908-2004), one of the great geniuses of our
century, served as Director Emeritus of the Board of Advisors of the
Ocean
Hyperbaric
Neurologic
Center.

The
Ocean Hyperbaric Neurologic Center currently operates 12 monoplace
chambers. These are a combination of the Vickers clamshell built
by Rolls Royce and the Seachrist horizontal chambers. The reason
monoplace chambers are used is that the dose (that is, the depth of
pressure)
may
be individualized and titrated for the optimal treatment protocol for each
patient. This is not feasible in a
multiplace chamber, which holds
multiple patients, because the chamber must be pressurized to a single
depth and thus, all patients receive the same dose of oxygen.
Our
completely refurbished clamshell chambers are ideal to easily and
comfortably accommodate an adult accompanying a young child during
treatment. Each chamber has it’s
own television set, VCR and CD player with speakers into the chamber, so
that the patient can relax, watch cable TV and movies or listen to music.
