Controversy
Steenblock has been subject to regulatory action by the Osteopathic Medical Board of California, something publicized in detail on Quackwatch by Stephen Barrett.
In addition, many critics and skeptics have taken exception to Steenblock's use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) for chronic stroke, something he began using in conjunction with specific IV and other therapies in 1988. Quackwatch's Stephen Barrett has criticized this practice.
