Dearest Readers,

I want to share something I knew was good and important but I didn’t realize how effective it really was until recently.

Please consider Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy to help make us stronger and healthier again.

Certain parts of our bodies can be deprived from oxygen causing illness and fatigue.

HBO may be your solution for any healing challenges you may have, as well as general well being.

Some of you may know Kipp, he’s an interesting Canadian gent that does healing work and promotes the benefits of hyperbaric oxygen here.

If you would like a session in the HBO chamber, he is offering that, as well as now making the chambers available for purchase.

Kipp will be holding an educational & raising awareness meeting for anybody interested. Write HBO@puravidaconnections.com for more information or with questionsl

HBO is one of the most powerful healing modalities available to us.

Here is the link to his website and click here for the video story and website.
