MD Hyperbaric + ALLO Performance Medicine
A six-month integrated program combining hyperbaric oxygen therapy with full-spectrum functional medicine, designed specifically for veterans and first responders living with TBI and PTSD.
The problem we're solving
Veterans and first responders with TBI and PTSD are routinely underserved by conventional care. Standard psychiatric and neurological protocols were not built for this population’s exposure history, physiological demands, or the complexity of overlapping injuries.
Most programs treat symptoms in isolation. This one doesn't.
More than 400,000 service members have been diagnosed with TBI. PTSD affects up to roughly 30% of recent-era veterans over a lifetime. Effective, integrated care remains out of reach for most.
How the program works
The combination of HBOT and functional medicine addresses not only the cumulative injury and invisible wound, but the systemic dysfunction it creates.
Program at a glance
A defined six-month plan that combines HBOT sessions with functional medicine support and follow-up.
Credentialed MDH facility sessions designed to support neurological recovery in TBI and PTSD.
Provider-led visits establish the plan, monitor progress, and adjust care across the program.
Nutrition support is integrated into the care plan rather than treated as a separate wellness add-on.
Weekly coaching keeps the plan active between visits and helps participants stay on track.
Participants have direct access to the care team during the six-month program window.
Comprehensive blood biomarkers, gut health testing with stool analysis, urinary metabolomics, and a robust toxin screening.
A structured reassessment reviews progress and clarifies the next step after the initial program period.
Evidence
Clinical studies have evaluated HBOT for persistent post-concussion symptoms after mild traumatic brain injury, including cognitive outcomes, perfusion findings, angiogenesis, and neuroplasticity markers.
A randomized controlled study evaluated a 60-session HBOT protocol in veterans with treatment-resistant PTSD and reported symptom and brain-imaging improvements. Follow-up literature should be presented without cure language.
Sleep, hormones, gut health, immune function, and inflammation can shape recovery capacity. ALLO evaluates and manages those domains while HBOT targets the neurological injury environment.
