POTS, dizziness, and a racing heart all have something important in common: the brain needs a consistent supply of blood and oxygen to function normally. There are many potential causes for these symptoms, including cardiovascular and structural problems that need to be appropriately evaluated. But in concussion, Long COVID, and other forms of dysautonomia, the..

One of the most frustrating experiences for patients after a concussion is being told: “Your MRI is normal.” We want to see something on a test that validates how we feel, but following concussion, that validation doesn’t always come from traditional imaging. It comes from examining how the brain is actually functioning—through eye movements, balance,..

Some of the most common symptoms we hear from our patients after concussion are brain fog and overwhelming fatigue. Before the injury, they could work all day, exercise, drive, read, spend time on their phone, or go out with friends without thinking twice about it. After a concussion, those same activities can leave them exhausted,..

Our brain is incredibly complex, consisting of approximately 100 billion brain cells called neurons and more than 100 trillion connections between them called synapses. These synaptic connections allow information to travel throughout the brain, coordinating and facilitating virtually every neurological and bodily function. Without these connections, the brain simply cannot function. Generally speaking, a healthy..

Your body wants to heal. Healing requires energy. That energy comes from oxygen.  We don’t heal the body. We create the environment in which the body can heal itself. HBOT is foundational biology rather than a single targeted intervention. Give your body enough oxygen, energy, and the environment it needs to do what it was..

Most of us never think about our autonomic nervous system—and that’s a good thing. Every second of every day it quietly controls your heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, digestion, body temperature, circulation, and countless other functions without requiring conscious thought. But when this system begins to malfunction, everyday activities can suddenly feel exhausting. Standing up..

For many people, COVID-19 lasts only a week or two. But for others, recovery doesn’t end when the infection is gone. Weeks or even months later, they continue to experience fatigue, brain fog, dizziness, headaches, shortness of breath, exercise intolerance, sleep disturbances, and difficulty concentrating. This condition, commonly referred to as Long COVID, can be..

For many people, Lyme disease is more than a rash or achy joints. Even after treatment, symptoms such as brain fog, dizziness, headaches, fatigue, nerve pain, poor exercise tolerance, and cognitive slowing can persist for months or even years. Whether these symptoms are due to ongoing infection, immune dysregulation, inflammation, or tissue injury remains an..

Most people think a concussion is simply a “bruise” to the brain. In reality, it sets off a cascade of events that temporarily disrupts how brain cells communicate, produce energy, and heal. When the head experiences a sudden impact, the brain rapidly accelerates and decelerates inside the skull. This mechanical force stretches delicate brain cells—especially..

We are born with billions of brain cells that communicate through an extraordinary network of connections. Throughout our lives, we learn, adapt, and recover by strengthening and creating new connections between these neurons. The healthier and more connected our brain is, the faster and more accurately it can communicate with the rest of the body…
