Concussion & Traumatic Brain Injury

Concussions are traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) that damage the brain. They are often caused by some type of external force, including wounds that penetrate the skull and closed-head injuries.

Concussions can have varying degrees of severity, but all are considered serious injuries that should be evaluated by a medical professional. Professional and adolescent athletes, particularly those involved in contact sports, tend to be more at risk. TBIs are also the signature wound of veterans returning home from Iraq and Afghanistan. However, anyone could suffer a concussion. Sports injuries, car and motorcycle accidents, falls—all could result in brain trauma.

Did You Know?

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Reduces Tissue Hypoxia. By increasing tissue oxygenation, cells could function more optimally. More oxygen creates more energy for accelerated repair and enhanced tissue growth. Hypoxic tissue, or low oxygen levels, can lead to cell death and is a primary cause of most major health conditions, including stroke, heart attack, cancer, diabetes complications and many more.
