Brain Injury
Understanding Traumatic Brain Injury and the Potential of HBOT:
Traumatic Brain Injury occurs when an external force disrupts normal brain function, leading to a range of physical, cognitive, and emotional symptoms. HBOT is a promising avenue for TBI recovery, leveraging the healing properties of oxygen to support damaged brain tissue.
Active Clinic: Elevating Traumatic Brain Injury Recovery with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)
At Active Clinic, we recognise the unique challenges posed by Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and the profound impact it can have on individuals and their families. In our commitment to innovative and evidence-based care, we introduce Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) as a potential therapeutic approach to enhance the recovery journey for those affected by TBI.
Common Causes of Traumatic Brain Injury:
Accidental falls, especially among the elderly, can result in TBIs.
Collisions and accidents involving vehicles can lead to head injuries.
High-impact sports or activities can increase the risk of TBIs.
Physical assaults or violent incidents may cause traumatic brain injuries.
Certain occupations carry a higher risk of head injuries due to accidents.
How Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Works for TBI:
HBOT involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurised chamber, allowing the blood to carry higher levels of oxygen to the brain. This increased oxygenation may enhance cellular repair and support the recovery of brain tissue affected by TBI.

TBI often triggers inflammation in the brain. HBOT has demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties, potentially reducing neuroinflammation and minimising secondary damage.

Research suggests that HBOT may promote neurogenesis (the formation of new neurons) and stimulate repair mechanisms, contributing to functional recovery after TBI.

Recognising Symptoms of Traumatic Brain Injury:
Symptoms of TBI can vary widely and may include:
- Headaches or Migraines
- Memory Loss or Forgetfulness
- Difficulty Concentrating
- Dizziness or Balance Issues
- Changes in Mood or Behaviour
- Sensory Changes (Vision or
- Hearing Problems)
Individuals recovering from Traumatic Brain Injury may consider HBOT as part of their comprehensive care plan at Active Clinic. Our healthcare professionals tailor HBOT sessions to each individual’s unique needs, aiming to enhance recovery and improve overall well-being.
