Petition | Get Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) on the NHS for Fibromyalgia sufferers. - FibroFlutters Patient Advocacy Organisation

Do you suffer with fibromyalgia and find it difficult to find a treatment to help ease your everyday chronic pain?

Maybe Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy could help you…

… only problem with that is that is doesn’t come cheaply and there aren’t too many places which offer this service.

If the Government recognised that it is a treatment, which can help Fibromyalgia, and then let it be prescribed by our GP’s, and, provided by the NHS, then we’d have easier access to such a treatment that we currently must seek out from private service providers.

Opening statement from HBOT website

Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment (HBOT) involves breathing pure oxygen at higher than atmospheric pressures in an enclosed chamber.
