Hyperbaric chamber in East Anglia « Oxygen Therapy Norfolk

My name Nick Noble and I came off my motorbike on 15^th September 2014 and broke my tibula, fibula and also had a spinal fracture.

I was fitted with an external fixator on my leg to align the bones and then I was told it was just a matter of time.

The Chedgrave MS Therapy Centre provides hyperbaric oxygen therapy to people with multiple sclerosis and cancer, and to help heal wounds and bones; oxygen therapy also helps treat a wide range of other conditions including many sports injuries. We receive referrals from local hospitals and have treated people with many illnesses.

All patients are assessed according to our procedures. Depending upon their condition, multiple sclerosis patients usually start a four week course of treatment; this is for us to be able to gauge the depth that they are more responsive to and which they will find more beneficial to their ongoing treatment. Other patients’ treatment regime varies.

We do not charge patients for their dive, but we find that most MS patients make a modest donation of £10 if they can.

Chedgrave Therapy Centre is a member of the MS National Therapy Centres and operates in accordance with their guidelines.

My name Nick Noble and I came off my motorbike on 15^th September 2014 and broke my tibula, fibula and also had a spinal fracture.

I was fitted with an external fixator on my leg to align the bones and then I was told it was just a matter of time.

Being what I am, I needed to speed up my recovery! I did some research on the internet for some sort of alternative treatment/aid and discovered Chedgrave MS Therapy who have a chamber where you can breathe oxygen under pressure which can help heal broken bones.

Although my consultant wasn’t exactly enthusiastic about oxygen therapy he gave me his blessing and I started treatment in the middle of November last year. I have mostly attended the chamber two days a week and after two more appointments with my consultant had the fixator removed on 7^th January 2015 which is fantastic!

I am able to bear weight completely on my leg and feel the treatment was well worth it for speeding up my recovery time.

I suffer with a spinal injury. I broke my neck in 1988, while playing with my children in the garden. Doctors told me any recovery would be very slow and time consuming. I investigated other avenues of therapy to aid my work out program, decompression therapy (hyperbaric oxygen therapy) was suggested and after researching the benefits.

I thought I would try it for my self.

I was amazed at the way it aided my work program. It boosted my energy levels, enabling me to work out longer and breathing. In 2007 I went to South America for a pioneering stem cell operation, since that time my recovery is recorded on Walk In The Right Direction and I can honestly say that if it was not for decompression therapy I would never have been fit or healthy enough to make such a journey for such treatment.

The treatment centre itself is run by a very close and dedicated team, most of whom are volunteers. After treatment they give positive input and support to all who attend, over cup of tea and piece of home made cake.
