Transcript

My name is Pat Hess. I've been coming to New Leaf Hyperbarics Eugene since October of last year. I've experienced significant results here through the hyperbaric treatment. In 1995 I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia about two years after I sustained an injury and then later on I was diagnosed with ME myalgic encephalomyelitis. As you might know these issues are multi systemic and so I've had. Results in a number of areas with the hyperbaric oxygen treatment. So starting with the feet, I've had pain in my feet for the last few years. My doctor says that's a circulation problem. And to me, it feels what I suspect neuropathy feels like, particularly with the change of whether it's been difficult to manage the feet. And I've in the last year or two resorted to taking pain pills during that period. And so I'm no longer having to do that or I can take much less. And Speaking of pain pills, I have been able to drop from Percocet to Norco and also with sleep medicines, I've been able to drop down to much less sleep medicines than I have been taking before. Sleep is particularly difficult to treat in fibromyalgia and ME. And so I've had a variety of results from taking only oxygen. Concentrator at night or and no pills at all to just taking less pills. Umm. In myalgic encephalomyelitis, we have what is called post exertional malaise or the new term is post exertional neuroimmune exhaustion, P/E, NE and the hyperbaric oxygen has helped significantly with that. So after exertion I'm getting a quicker recovery and as you know that's very difficult to treat in ME. In December of this year I was able to start a hobby. It's now July. I have sustained that hobby now, and the past 10 years I have tried to start a hobby with no success there, and this is a significant improvement in my quality of life. And very significantly talking about the musculoskeletal system and the injury that I sustained, which was to the left back where there has been pain there, particularly in laying down for the last 20 plus years, resulting in lack of good rest and even worse sleep and the need to take something for pain at night for that. And so even when I first started the hyperbaric oxygen treatment within the first few sessions. I immediately noticed some loosening of the chronically tightened and painful areas. And from time to time I would feel that over and over again until about a few months ago where there started to be a there was a shift at the left chest and the left upper back. There was a big movement there. And then a couple weeks later there was a big movement at the left pelvis. So I said to myself I should check in with the massage therapist in the office, in the hyperbaric office. And so I checked in with Christina and she listened to me very carefully and chose trigger point release, release from her skill set. And within three days after that treatment and in combination with the realignment exercises that I've been doing for a number of years, that spot in my left upper back changed, moved. I've had less pain there. Now we're still working that out, but there was a very significant change. And then I saw her a couple weeks later and there was another big change at the right pelvis. And so I feel those moves were particularly dramatic. So I'm very grateful for the treatment. I've been getting it hyperbaric, new leaf hyperbarics, and it's affordable treatment.

Here is a simple tool to help manage your daily medication intake. As Haley (@thesleepy_ot) says — IH brain fog and forgetfulness is very common. The amount of times I have found myself thinking so hard about whether I took my meds already is honestly too many times to count. Using a pill organizer gives me a physical reminder, per day, if I did in fact take them or not! It can be especially beneficial so you 1. Don’t skip a dose unintentionally and 2. So you don’t accidentally double a dose in a short timeframe (which can potentially even be dangerous) Taking a few minutes to re-supply your pill organizer each week ALSO serves as a reminder when you’re starting to get low on your prescription, reminding you to call your doctor for a refill and avoiding missed doses when you’re all out. Thanks for the helpful tip, Haley! #ThisIsIH #forthesleepyones #hypersomniaawareness #idiopathichypersomnia #sleepdisorder #FakeAwake

Red Light Therapy: A Game Changer for Inflammation Relief A lot of people turn to medications like Advil for inflammation, but I’ve found a better alternative that doesn’t involve adding another pill to my routine. For me, red light therapy has been a real game changer. I use it 3-4 days a week in 40-minute sessions, and it’s made all the difference in my training recovery. If you’ve got specific areas like your hip or knee that need extra attention, you can focus the therapy on that spot. Just remember—when it comes to red light therapy, proximity matters. 🔴 #RedLightTherapy #InflammationRelief #NaturalRecovery #WellnessRoutine Disclaimer: Individual results may vary.

You’ve heard the buzz around Ozempic and Wegovy. These drugs are sweeping the nation, becoming known as weight loss medications. But did you know they come with side effects? The number one side effect of these medications is stomach problems. Mild nausea, constipation, and diarrhea are all things to look out for if you are on or considering these medications. Unsolved stomach issues can cause problems for your gallbladder. It is important to work with a medical professional who knows the proper dosing and monitoring practices for these medications to prevent further issues from occurring. #americasweightlossdoctor #sideeffects #weightloss
