Brain Injury & Concussion Support

Adjunctive Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Neurological Recovery

Brain injuries and concussions can disrupt oxygen delivery, cerebral blood flow, and normal neurological function. Even after initial medical treatment, some individuals experience persistent symptoms that affect cognition, mood, energy, and quality of life.

At OxygenWell, we offer adjunctive Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) as supportive care for individuals recovering from brain injury or concussion, when clinically appropriate. This approach is designed to support neurological recovery physiology and does not replace medical or neurological care.

Understanding Brain Injury & Concussion

Brain injuries range in severity and may include:

Concussion (mild traumatic brain injury)
Repetitive head trauma
Post-concussion symptoms
Traumatic brain injury (TBI)

These injuries may result from:

Falls
Motor vehicle accidents
Sports injuries
Accidental impacts
Occupational trauma

Even mild injuries can lead to prolonged symptoms when oxygen delivery and cerebral metabolism are impaired.

Common Post-Injury Symptoms

Individuals recovering from brain injury or concussion may experience:

Headaches

Brain fog or slowed thinking

Memory or concentration difficulties

Fatigue

Sensory sensitivity

Sleep disturbances

Why Oxygen Matters in Brain Recovery

The brain has one of the highest metabolic demands in the body and is highly sensitive to changes in oxygen availability. Following injury, the brain may experience:

Reduced cerebral blood flow
Inflammation and swelling
Impaired mitochondrial energy production
Impaired Disrupted neural signaling

These factors can slow recovery even after the initial injury has stabilized.

How Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy May Support Neurological Recovery

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy delivers 100% oxygen under increased atmospheric pressure, increasing the amount of oxygen dissolved in the blood plasma and available to tissues. As adjunctive support for brain injury and concussion recovery, HBOT may help by:

Enhancing oxygen delivery to brain tissue

Supporting cerebral metabolism and energy production

Reducing neuroinflammation

Supporting neuroplasticity and cellular repair

Improving overall tissue oxygenation

HBOT is used in addition to medical care, rehabilitation, and neurological oversight — not as a replacement.
