I know several doctors in CA at Stanford, Scripps and USC if you need names. I had a terribly difficult time finding practitioners. But I have heard of resolution with HBO but I think it was with 40 session at UCSD.

@gently Thanks! I’m in Fort Worth TX area and fortunately the hospital for which my daughter works has chambers and clinicians. The current question will be what to do if 30 sessions have helped but aren’t enough. The specialist who administers the treatments says he has seen as many as 50 and a friend who had success with treatment for a leg wound says he’s heard of 60. Time will tell.
