hyperbaric medicine ?

[m***@gmail.com]

Hello ,

Im not actually a climber but thought perhaps some here might know
something about getting hold of some affordable ( for me means round 0
- £1500 ) equipment I could use to try and help heal some injuries I
have ala Rooneys Oxygen Tent.

I see there are bags like gamow bags I can use but I am really looking
for a mask I can use instead If any one has any suggestions Id really
appreciate it.

thanks

I had some hyperbaric treatment following an RTA a few years ago
c/o a charity for MS sufferers that run a diving secompression
chamber in Dundee. You might look around for something similar.

There is only one and its too far away for me to get treated on a
regular basis which is why I was looking for a personal unit instead.
