I recently attended a 3 day international conference on the subject of hyperbaric oxygen in Moscow, which was mostly made up of east european and Russian delegates, as well as one American and one western European (myself).  Thanks to my excellent translator I was able to follow proceedings and abstracts on selected topics are in the oprocess of being translated and will eventually be posted on the HBOTT website. 

The Russians now have considerable experience over many years of using HBO for a variety of indications that are not accepted in the west, and I consider that it is remiss of authorities to neglect important and effective treatment.  In particular I was able to discuss the use of HBO in detox for alcohol and drug cases - with six practitioners who have had considerable experience in this area, and we will be following up on this in the weeks to come.
