Mother helps her son’s Autism by scuba diving!

 

In a little town in northern Illinois near the Wisconsin border is Loves Park, Illinois. Population 23,413. Jaxon’s mom works at Loves Park Scuba, a small dive shop with a pool. Jaxon’s mother, Marcela Castillo was reading about hyperbaric chambers healing kids at 1.3 ATM    with 24-90% oxygen, when questioning her boss, Dan Johnson he said our pool is 1.3 ATM we can try it with Nitrox. The results were wonderful in 6 months, Jaxon is a new child. For more information about Jaxon check out her facebook post.

Below our photos from our autistic program showing the growth children can experience from scuba diving.
