Hyperbaric Community News - Case of Scott, Gerri, Austin and Sydney

The hyperbaric community has come up with yet another breakthrough! And this time it is the Scott and Gerri Williams family. Both their children, Austin and Sydney, had shown signs of regression, and things started to look more and more complicated with time. Gerri had to quit working as a registered full time nurse, just to take care of the children.

It was not till 2007 when Scott and Gerri decided to consult Dr. Zahangir Khaled at his Methodist Medical Group Pediatric Gastroenterology practice, and that was probably the turning point in their lives. But even then things didn’t take the right path – and it was a long wait till Scott and Gerri saw the answer towards the right path.

Time came when Scott had to take a leave from his job as a police officer. By this time the couple was advised about hyperbaric treatment by Dr. Khalid, and they decided to give it a try. Even though the cost was a considerable one, and the insurance company would not cover it, Scott and Gerri decided to go with the hyperbaric treatment for Austin and Sydney – which cost them $5000 a month for the first child, and $2500 for the second. And this was when they saw the first signs of a change in their children.

By the third sitting, the couple saw their children improving beyond their expectations. Not only did they show an increased level of energy – which they lacked completely earlier, but they also showed signs of hunger, sound sleep, and others that could only point towards a recovery! And thanks to the local church, they were able to purchase a soft cloth hyperbaric chamber for their children, which they use these days for three treatments a week.

It is probably time that we considered hyperbaric treatment more seriously, and help children suffering with this disease by being a part of the hyperbaric community. We all can help someone out, just like the church did in case of Scott, Gerri, Austin and Sydney.

Your Makeup Sponge and Your Skin

Most wholesale sponge manufacturers and sponge skin care companies will have a huge variety of makeup sponge available for consumers. However not all of them are friendly for your skin. You may come across serious skin problems at times if you are not sure about the makeup sponge or other sponge skin care products that you use, like the back scrubber.

One way to avoid such skin problems is doing a bit of shopping around for the sponge skin care companies before you actually go forward and buy such a product. If you have not considered this as important, then you are probably not on the right track.

I personally have suffered with skin problems in the past, which is why I am a bit cautious these days about what sort of makeup sponge I buy from the market. While the doctor told me that I had highly sensitive skin, which is why the back scrubber resulted in the rashes, this problem is not something that is very rare.

Only a handful of wholesale sponge manufacturers offer sponge skin care products that are authentic and suitable for every sort of skin. Just as it is not advisable to go for the cheapest products available in the market, it is not a good idea to go for most expensive products either. Just because a product offers to be more expensive does not mean that it is going to be better than the others available in the market.

If you are facing skin problems and think it might be because of the sponge skin care products that you are using, it may prove to be a good idea to discuss the matter with your physician or a dermatologist. On the whole, go for reliable brands of makeup sponge products if you would want to ensure the best for your skin!
