Visit to a Addiction Psychiatrist Center


My elder sister works in a psychiatrist treatment center; it was last time when I got a chance to visit the center for Clinical psychiatrist Costa Mesa.  The ambience, environment was so good that you will be able to get well as soon as you enter the place. However there are many who needs a proper treatment and hence are asked to come here. Seeing some, I really started wondering “why are they over here”?

Some of the reasons are here described as – 
-      A need for detoxification of the over dosage of the drugs.

-      Sensible to severe mood swings …or disorder you may say!

-      Eating and anxiety disorders.

-      The one who wants to end up the utmost trust on the medications and wan to recover with the meditation, yoga and similar other therapies.

-      Some are also going through the treatment just to learn about the stress management skills.
The Addiction psychiatrist - Irvine where I visit provides a treatment with the help of 8 sittings. This is the minimum…however you can always increase it on the basis of your needs and the requirements.

There are some of the advantages that I found interesting of this treatment are –
-      The time schedule is quite flexible, so that it can easily get adjusted with the people who are working and the one who are not employed.

-      Immense breaks in between the prolonged session that helps to relax.
There may be many of the other diagnosis center of Clinical psychiatrist Costa Mesa, Irvine, Santa Ana, but the center where I visited last time was really worth mentioning.

My Birth Day with Autistic Kids

The day was April 2, 2011 – My Birthday! This year was the first time my Dad didn’t buy me any gift, rather he promised me of a surprise!

I didn’t know that I took birth on “The Autism Awareness Day” until dad told me so on the day.

My father being the in – charge of an Autism center, took me over there the Saturday morning.

I had a thought that the autistic kids could not communicate well, they prefer remaining in a separate world of their own, but these kids proved all my thoughts wrong, and all credits go to HBOT treatments.

With the help of the HBOT therapy, they now can do many things like the other normal kids.

They entertained us on the day by various performances.
  • Sensing an object without seeing, then describing it.
  • Singing beautiful songs and playing musical instruments.
  • Reciting small phrases.
  • Playing simple games.
  • Dancing with the beat of the music.
Beside the HBOT therapy, they were also given the musical treatment that too helped them a lot. It was not just the singing and playing the musical instrument. It is a thorough planned action. They were asked to sing with the music that helps them to increase their communication power. Flute was a very important instrument each were given to play during their learning period, this helped them to develop their communication power.

However it was really good to see that these kids are heading towards a normal life. We all are waiting for the day, when all the tears of their mother’s eye will turn into the smile of their lips.

I am really thankful to my dad who gave me such a wonderful opportunity to know the autistic kids so closely. The day will remain written in golden words in my heart forever! This was the wonderful birthday gift I ever had.

Thanks Dad!

A Memorable Day Of My Life

Again it is April - the autism awareness month. With lots of articles and posts, suddenly I got a chance to visit a training center for the autistic kids providing the autism treatment. It was my first time and their dramas, plays, shows, games, musical arrangement, competitions made me go speechless.
It was a session of a week organized by an autism school. Everything was so perfect. It was not even appearing that they were the children of special needs.
Their dancing, playing musical instrument, singing songs, and playing games like describing objects seeing it were very entertaining.
After the session I personally asked for their method of the autism treatment. It was just “love and care”…
I fail to notice any of the leading autism symptoms among the kids.
- They could communicate with others.
- They were quite social.
- They smile, laugh, and know to enjoy life like the other kids.
They were all given the treatment of HBOT - Autism can be treated so well with the help of the therapy was beyond my idea. Beside the HBOT, Autism children were also given a strong music therapy over there. It was not simply the singing or playing instrument. It was a total planned therapy that helps them to communicate, increase their confidence and live them a bold life, with the help of the music they could communicate with others and this helped their vocabulary too. Many were against their way of treatment, but we saw the result by their awesome performance on April 2 - on The Autism Awareness Day.
Thanks for such a motherly help!

Tips You need To Know Before Buying Portable Hyperbaric Chamber

Hyperbaric chambers are used all over to fight against many diseases. It provide the oxygen therapy with the proven result that includes autism treatment, give heal to the wounds, infection of the tissues and the help to cure from the burns.
Here the question comes do you really need to own a home hyperbaric chamber?
There are some instructions that you need to know before going for the portable hyperbaric chambers.

  1. Hyperbaric chambers are meant for the specific uses only. It is not that you can use it anytime. Before using also, you must be very careful to know the level of the pressure that is to be applied and get to know the purpose for which you are using the chamber.
  2. Get to know the maximum pressure of the chamber. It is generally measured in terms of “ata” or “psi”. You can choose the mild chambers as they do not apply the same pressure as that of the professional one. So, the risk involvement is low.
  3. Get to know about the length, inflated diameter, and also the width of the chamber. Know the total operation of the system along with the inflation and deflation methodology.
  4. Check the weight of the home hyperbaric chamber, so that you can carry it safely to your home.
  5. Before you purchase the one of your choice, go through the guidelines very carefully and get a test if possible. At least be sure that you feel comfortable inside the chamber and are not suffering from claustrophobia.
  6. Ask for the verification and the safety records of the portable hyperbaric chambers that they are selling.
Lastly you can always have the option of leasing one for your own use. Hire it and use it for some days or months. If you find its solving your problem, you can always buy a new one.

A Recent Study on Autism

According to Lisa Croen, Ph.D – a research scientist of California Autism treatment can be treated as the disease having a number of options but just a little available data.

The recent studies are of the opinion that 25% of the people have the digestion problem, 25% are suffering from the seizure disorders again some are having the sleeping problems. So, a number of symptoms are giving birth to a number of autism types.

Autism - genetic component:
Many researchers of Autism treatment Wisconsin are of the opinion that the disease has been found among those individuals mainly, whose family records shows the presence of the autism. The Science Program Director of “Cure Autism Now” - Sophia Colamarino put the comment stating that the gene issues has been forwarded to understand and to know the biological origin of autism.

Autism and the brain structure are related (?)- a note on the brain activity:
In Wi autism treatment center commented on – Daydream – it is very common, many goes against it stating it’s something totally not done! But are you aware of the fact that your Day dreaming separates you with the one having the autism? The autistic people fail to use their brain in the way we use! Modern researchers say that some areas of their brain are much bigger than the normal. But it is not known whether autism is the reason behind that, or it is because of the autism that it happens?

Autism and the brain chemicals:
Here by the word chemical we mean the signal that is sent by the brain, which helps us to function normally.
Sophia Colamarino and many other of Autism treatment Wisconsin commented that if the brain chemical transmission fails then it will easily lead to the abnormal body functioning.

Interaction between the genes and other environmental factors:
It is most likely to be said that the environmental issues and the genes combines together to give birth to the autism. Though till now no such evidence has been found, yet this can be said!

Lastly it should be said that there is no single factor that cause autism…vaccines, environment toxins, foods, genes - there are a lot of factors that acts together. If we really want to know the proper cause behind autism, the studies and the research works must be broadened up. We can set up similar case studies in one group and try to spot out the common problem of each group. The next step should be taken answering the question – “the reason of the overlap of the group” and “the common factor of each group”. Let us hope the Wi autism treatment and treatment centers finds out the answer and put forward another step in researching.

HBOT and Autism – And a Little Girl


This is all about Anushka – my little sister who is just 15. When she was just 18 months old, we came across some problem in her. She arched back when taken in lap, cries with body contacts. When she starts growing the symptoms started becoming more noticeable.
As the number of girls getting affected by autism is almost negligible we didn’t even give a thought. But then one day we had to take her. To our utmost surprised, we came to know that she is AUTISTIC. Our entire world went dark. We were totally perplexed, we tried many treatments but nothing worked out well. Then finally we thought of taking him to hyperbaric organization. We lost all our hope, but the result we got was simply surprising.
Slowly she starts making eye contacts with us. We started taking him to the social gatherings. Even though we were told that he will also start studying, but we didn’t believe until she really did. With the help of the computer, she started learning small words and describing them.
Many years have passed. She is now a young lady of 15. She can sing, dance and take part in small plays and drama. We are very thankful to the International hyperbaric association. It’s just because of their strong dedications and love for the autistic kids like Anushka we are smiling today.
If you too know someone suffering from autism, give the advice of taking the child in the hyperbaric organization. I would not tell that he/she will get completely cured, but I can assure that the symptoms will definitely get minimized and the tears of their parents’ eyes will turn into smile in their lips.
Thanks International hyperbaric association!!

HBOT Helped My Sister A Lot

Last time I came across very interesting news. It was about Dr. Harch. The study reports that as people have started using the HBOT therapy a lot, many are making the wrong use of it. As, the name is quite famous, hyperbaric centers are found giving the false assurance of that their diagnosis is following the Dr. Harch methodology.

But here I must mention that my sister’s son got benefited from the HBOT therapy. In California mild Hbot therapy is the option, she found suitable for our Robert – her son! Though it was not the case that he was seriously affected but, we noticed some of the problem when he was just 20 months old.

- Arching back, when someone take him up
- Giving firm look without any expression
- Not recognizing anyone – not even his mother
- Lack of communication. He never even tried to babble out
- Mainly – lack of proper development

As he started growing, he started avoiding social gatherings, making his own world, not communicating and interacting with anyone. We were then in California mild Hbot was what we were suggested. At that time we were not much concerned of the leading doctors and all… but, thank god! The result we got was simply too good! As, he was quite small at that time, so we preferred California mild Hbot therapy!

Within a few therapies, we were overjoyed to notices his actions. All the symptoms were getting minimized
- His strong motor action – repeated actions were all gone
- Losing the desire to speak and to communicate was no longer noticeable. He started to communicate with short sentences
- Learning small words, with the help of the diagrams
- Tending to learn with the help of the computers

It was a time, when it was becoming very hard for us to console my sister. Every time she used to mutter the same question “why me”? Rising up her spirits was started becoming next to impossible. Being her sister, I know what help did California mild Hbot therapy brought to us!

Thanks HBOT…

Career - Psychiatrist or Psychologist?

I come across many people who tend to get confused between two terms – psychiatrist and psychologist. Many think that they are of the same profession. But, in reality it is not so.
The physician dealing with the mental problems are the psychologist.

Qualification -
  • They have a PhD or Psy.D degree.
  • A 6 years graduation degree in the treatment of the mental, emotional, behavioral, psychological problem.
  • The one going through the clinical internship have to go through a number of training accompanied by the techniques and theories of the psychotherapy. They can only report the administration about the tests on the patients.
The main difference between the two is – of their qualification and their practice field.
Psychiatrists are the doctors. We found different divisions in this field. Clinical psychiatrist - Costa Mesa, Santa Ana, Irvine, Addiction psychiatrist Irvine, Orange County, CA worth mentioning.

Qualification -
  • They hold the degree – (M.D.s).
  • They need to take an extra 4 years of the medical training.
  • They have the capacity to understand the needs and the requirements of the patients.
  • They possess a strong knowledge of the medication.
  • They only have the right to prescribe the drug for the patient, evaluating the condition of the patients.
Many a time you will also come across the term Psychotherapist! They are the one associated with the psychotherapy. In this case no specific education is a need. However, they need to hold a degree in the mental health studies. They generally start their career in the medical schools only, after which they take residence training and get absorbed in the field.

Now if you are thinking for opting these, there are some suggestions that I can provide you with. First of all, if you are thinking of the Addiction psychiatrist, Irvine will be the ideal place for your practice. The Psychotherapist after completing their training gets the license and practices the psychiatry. But the psychologists need to go for a 5-7 year graduation study to get the rank similar to the doctor.. They at that time can get the Psy.D or the PhD degree. Now, if you are interested in the Clinical psychiatrist, Costa Mesa can be a good option for you. But you need to take the Psy.D degree. The fact of the licensing differs from one country to the other.

So, now hopefully you got the difference between the two?

As psychiatrists are the medical doctors, they can prescribe drugs and do many things, that psychologist can never do.

Now it is up to you which one will you choose for your career? The choice is yours!

Hyperbaric Chambers Can Really Help

HBOT therapy: it is the ideal treatment that helps in the diagnosis of various diseases. Our CEO hired Personal hyperbaric chamber. All of my colleagues thought it was of no use. But however sir set up a group of 4 who were asked to take a small training from a hyperbaric training center.
hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapies
I was not aware of the fact unless last time, we faced a serious crisis in our office. Alex – the manager of our team was going through some serious family problem. We all knew the fact. But, suddenly last Friday after our weekend party he had a severe cardiac attack. It was quite late at night, so we were left with no other option than to put him in the personal hyperbaric chamber. I can still remember the day when we all crossed our finger and started praying with the hope, that we will soon see his forever smile. But, it was not god who helped us. The 99% credit should be given to the bliss of science and technology - the personal hyperbaric chambers and 1% to our fellow mates, who helped Alex to come up.
That day I realized how the HBOT can help.
Few days after this incident I came across a friend, whose husband was going through the short term memory loss and he totally forgot that he is married and having 3 kids. Every time he moves out of home, he lost his way. Sitting back in a chair and staring at the window started becoming his regular schedule. All it happened due to a brain injury. Doctors opined that as we have 1 brain, once it hurt, nothing can be done. Samantha – my friend lost all her hopes until she opted for HBOT therapy. After a few scheduled treatments as her husband was recovering, she got the personal one, and now with the help of the personal hyperbaric chambers, her husband started getting back his memory.
I know only 2- Alex and Samantha who got the positive result, but I am quite sure that the number is much more.
Thanks HBOT!!

A Study on the Autistic Children of Hawaii

HBOT is now getting used in more than 7000 centers worldwide. Be it infection, wounds, cardiac arrest or autism…HBOT is the best.
A Link has been found between the chronic inflammation of the gut and the brain with the anti- inflammatory effects of HBOT.
A study on HAWAII
As the study goes (in 1992), 1 out of every 74 children is in special needs. All are coming within the autism spectrum. Since 1992, the number is increasing, the recent records shows 2700%. Can this be related to the genetic pre-disposition on the one residing in the Pacific Islands and Asia? Also, in California, hbot is a need. But that is never to the extent that just 65% students are getting admission to the normal school, 1.24 times of which needs special care (US Dept of Education – 2004). Yes… they show minor signs of autism. They also need some of the treatment.
In California Hyperbarics treatment is to all the autistic kids. As it does not involve any medications or drugs, so no question of the negative side effects arise here.
But, the resources and the medical help found in these regions are scarce and are quite limited. Can you believe that there are just 2 DANS (registered?).
The hyperbaric treatment facility over here commonly provides therapy to autistic children; it has been documented constantly optimistic reports of development in autistic children following HBOT. To offer a more object for HBOT use to treat these kids, however, a study with the use of less subjective reporting method was needed.
According to this study, 20 children (male – 16, female 4) were subjected under the HBOT treatment were found 100% positive…needless to mention all were from Hawaii! The main areas of their problem are –
- Problem in communicating.
- Social interaction problem.
- Monotonous behavior.
- Showing repeated action (problem in the motor nerve). Etc.
In California, hbot is used as the proper treatment of autism, which is accompanied by the other treatment therapy – music therapy is worth mentioning.

However, sitting in US, it is though not possible to help the ill fated of Hawaii, but I would definitely pray so that they can come up quickly from their crisis.

Avoid Medication…Choose HBOT for Better Results

I am a bit addicted towards the drugs. I think without the proper medication, none of the disease can get cured. But, my thought got totally changed after my friend got a positive result from the treatment by the HBO Therapy. This really works. When her father was going through the phase f the cardiac arrest, admission in the Hbot chambers helped him a lot. Many we know, going to the stage of COMA after heart attack. But, no such things happened in this case and he is living a normal and usual life.
hbot chamber
It was around 2006, Hannah’s 12 weeks old child was showing some strange actions. While sleeping, she arch her back, points her nose straight upward. Even, when we take her in our arms, she arches back. When she consulted the doctor, she was told that the infant is going through the early stage of the autism.
However there is some other signs of autism too, with the help of which you can find out whether your child is having autism or not?
- Not smiling within six months of age.
- Not communicating with more than 2 words within 24 months.
- Regression in the proper development.
- Showing the lack of interaction.
- Not babbling within 12 months.
Avoiding the medications and the drugs, she gave the preference to the Hbot chambers. Her child is now showing some of the positive response. May be a bit slow than the normal kids, but she can now slowly read small words, can talk, and unlike before don’t run off to her own room when we go to Hannah’s place.
Now, I too think that if possible, rather than opting for the medications, choose HBO Therapy. I can assure, you will get the helpful effect.

Psychotic Depression? Consult Psychiatrists

It was really hard for me to find out my younger brother- Cleve is slowly stepping into the life of the addiction like many of his friends.
- He was seeing and hearing things that we could not see or hear. These were termed as the hallucination by the Addiction psychiatrist Newport Beach.
- Irrational thoughts were also showing its colors. These were nothing but the delusions according to many.
- He started thinking that we - his family can harm him. These are termed as the paranoia which had no real base.
- Mood swing started becoming more and more prominent. He was a total calm and shy child, whose anger was becoming irresistible for us.
At this point of time, we had no other option than to give a thought to the treatment for psychotic disorders -Newport Beach was our first option.
Addiction psychiatrist Newport Beach treats the ones going through a severe phase of the depression. My brother got benefitted from the treatment. Many forms of medications are there that generates a positive result.
The treatment for psychotic disorders -Newport Beach put its main effort to stabilize the person’s mood. Sometimes, medications are also used to treat delusions and hallucination. However, as Cleve was not in any extreme stage, he didn’t require much. Just a little dose of the antipsychotic medications, special neuroleptic medication and antidepressants was enough for him.
Apart from the medication, Cleve also had to sit for the one-on-one counseling, group discussions etc.
Lastly I should mention that my parents were always there, and there are 5 things that the family members should focus on –
- Try to find the proper and the suitable help.
- Empathize - as no one plans to get addicted. It just happens.
- Talk to them and learn to advise them – but that must not be in front of his friends.
- There is always strength in the number, get united to talk to him and make him understand the problem.
- The interventionists are extremely motivating. If nothing works out, they can be really helpful.
However, I found them very helpful, as Cleve is now living a normal life and my brother have now again become my best friend like before.

Giving A Voice To The Communication Problem

A new gene has been identified that has been found predispose the autism and the epilepsy. The researchers from CHUM Research Centre (CRCHUM) have pointed out this fact.
Dr. Patrick Cossette - a neurologist pointed out the fact and described it as the mutation of the synapsin gene (SYN1). The study also includes a report that states that every 1% of the 3.5% suffering from the disease are showing the symptoms of both autism and the epilepsy.
The people suffering from the autism, epilepsy, aphasia have the communication problem. To give the aid for autism, mobile companies are now found launching the iphones that give a complete support to the autism affected person.
This is an outcome of the prolonged research work that is now on its way to generate a positive and direct impact on the people facing the challenges all over the world.
In this service, the user can simply communicate with tapping the words and some related pictures too that comes in the display. These phones generally act as the autism aid.
- It provides the confidence.
- The independence to communicate.
- The participation via phone.
Thus it can be rightly stated, even after going through the treatment if you think your child is having the problem of speaking or the communication, you can give a try to these devices. This really acts as the proper autism aid.
But, however you can give a try for the hyperbaric treatment. My colleague’s son is showing positive response after the hyperbaric treatment.
I think the autistic child faces many problems to live their life. So, stretching a helping hand can bring the lost smile in their face.

Rumors Spread Relating HBOT Centers



From a recent study I came to know that as people are having more trust on the hyperbaric treatment, others are making the wrong use of the same. I came to know this from a recent study only. It says that, when the regularity of the hyperbaric facilities is increasing, the medical staffs, doctors, and physician are claiming their services that are related to Dr. Harch, assuring to provide the consulting service of Dr. Harch etc.
hyperbaric-medecine-wisconsin
They are claiming all these are nothing but fake… they are also asking to launch report if the searchers come across this situation and if the site is not listed in the HBOT.COM. Some are of the opinion that there are now clinics here and there though assure safety and protection but are all fakes. Some are even doing the practice without any license even. Neither the proper hyperbaric training nor the knowledge, yet they are into the business. Are these true? Are they really playing with the life of the innocent patients? I don’t know…
However, I am not concerned about the ones who are doing this, but I must say, hyperbaric medicine – Wisconsin, Santa Ana etc are really effective and helpful too. It is true that Dr. Harch treatment is one of the best treatments, but there are hyperbaric center – Wisconsin, Irvine, etc. providing the positive and the effective treatment.
Even Sarah’s son is the patient of autism. He never speaks to anyone; always love loneliness. Even he never speaks to his mom also. Sarah was very upset. Then one day she took him to a Hyperbaric Center – Wisconsin. Though it was not Dr. Harch’s group, yet Sarah got unbelievable result. With the help of the hyperbaric treatment, his son can now speak, sing small notes and can read small sentence too.

So, I think rather than dying for the Dr. Harch’s treatment, if you choose a proper hyperbaric medicine Wisconsin, following Sarah’s experience I can assure, you will get your desired result.
