Post traumatic encephalopathy or disorder of the brain, due to continuous trauma of the head, became a hot topic recently, after the NFL paid for many lawsuits to NFL players who developed a debilitated condition due to multiple head traumas. Many professional athletes have chosen hyperbaric medicine to prevent irreversible damage to the brain. Although still in the experimental phase, athletes like Jets legend Joe Namath have endorsed the therapy after experiencing first-hand the benefits of the procedure.
All you need to do is schedule an appointment to determine if you’re a good candidate. After you’re approved, therapy can last anywhere from 60 to 120 minutes per session. You’ll want to prepare for the time investment in advance because daily sessions may be required. Although hyperbaric therapy requires a commitment from the patient, the benefits and health indications are well worth the wait.
Also, make sure you arrive prepared. We don’t allow you to enter the chamber with books, tablets, or synthetic clothing, and ask that you don’t apply cream, lotion, hair gel, or spray before your session. For more info on how to prepare, check out our FAQs.
