On this episode of Into The Light with Cray Cait, I welcome a force to be reckoned with, a literal superwoman behind all things hyperbaric oxygen, and an amazing advocate for Edna and I and our clinic.

It's Shannon freakin' Kenitz, Executive Director of the International Hyperbaric Association (IHA). 

We are her first stop on a nationwide tour of Hyperbaric Oxygen Clinics to raise awareness for this incredible therapy and to help people take control of their own health. 

The IHA is a non-profit that promotes the use of hyperbaric oxygen for off label indications, focusing on conditions such as autism, cerebral palsy, stroke, and Parkinson's disease. The IHA supports many different types practitioners and clinics in order to help make Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) more accessible to everyone. They also fund research and treatments for families that can't afford HBOT.  

Shannon's HBOT journey started when her daughter, Grace, was diagnosed with a very rare mitochondrial disease, and her doctors told Shannon to let her daughter go.

But Shannon didn't give up. She knew that she had to do everything she possibly could before she would let Grace go. So she traveled from Wisconsin to Florida to start her daughter on HBOT. 

Although Grace was not expected to live past the age of 2, she just turned 22 this March. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy saved Grace's life, it gave Shannon her family back, and ultimately led her to taking over the IHA. 

There are so many more stories just like Grace's and the experience had led Shannon on a mission of educating the world on the benefits of HBOT and helping people understand that they can, and need to be, advocates for their own health. 

HBOT can help with a wide variety of neurological conditions, mental health conditions, addiction, GI issues, anti-aging, sports injuries, and so much more. Shannon has heard from too many families who have been inspired by her story, that have lost members of their own family, who just wish they had known about HBOT. 

It's time people knew!
