HBOT for Brain Injuries and Neurological Disorders in Tribeca, NYC
Medical-Grade HBOT Services at MD Hyperbaric Tribeca
Living with persistent symptoms after a concussion or brain injury can feel overwhelming. Brain fog, chronic fatigue, and impaired motor function disrupt daily life and leave you searching for answers. At MD Hyperbaric, we specialize in concussion treatment in Tribeca, Manhattan using medical-grade Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) to help reduce inflammation, enhance recovery, and restore neurological function.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Brain Health
HBOT delivers 100% medical-grade oxygen in a pressurized chamber to increase oxygen levels in your bloodstream. This enhanced oxygen delivery reaches deep into brain tissue, promoting cellular repair and reducing inflammation at the source. Our FDA-cleared Fortius420 chambers provide a safe and comfortable environment for your healing journey.
HBOT for Concussions and TBI
Concussions and traumatic brain injuries can affect thousands of New York City residents each year. Symptoms like persistent headaches, dizziness, memory problems, and difficulty concentrating can linger for months after the initial injury. At MD Hyperbaric, our concussion and TBI treatment protocols use HBOT to target the underlying cellular damage causing your symptoms. The therapy increases oxygen delivery to injured brain tissue, reducing inflammation and facilitating the repair of damaged neurons.
HBOT for Neurological Disorders
Neurological conditions such as stroke, PTSD, Parkinson’s disease, and dementia present complex challenges that require comprehensive treatment approaches. At our Tribeca location in New York City, we provide HBOT for neurological disorders to support patients managing these chronic conditions. The therapy enhances oxygen delivery to the brain and nervous system, promoting healing at the cellular level.
The HBOT Process at MD Hyperbaric NYC
Getting started with MD Hyperbaric is a straightforward process. First, you’ll schedule a free discovery call with our team to discuss your symptoms and treatment goals. Once you’re ready to begin, our Medical Director will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific condition. Most patients receive 10 to 40 sessions, with treatments scheduled daily or several times per week.
During each 60 to 90-minute session, you’ll relax in our spacious hardshell chamber while breathing pure oxygen through a mask. The increased pressure allows oxygen to dissolve into your plasma, lymph, and cerebrospinal fluid, reaching areas with restricted blood flow. HBOT reduces neuroinflammation, enhances neuroplasticity, improves cerebral blood flow, and supports mitochondrial function essential for cognitive performance.

What to Know Before Your Treatment
What is Medical-Grade HBOT?
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is a proven treatment that enhances healing by flooding the body with oxygen. Used for over 100 years, it supports brain health, anti-aging, athletic recovery, and medical conditions by boosting oxygen in blood, tissues, and organs. Patients breathe 100% oxygen in a pressurized chamber, accelerating recovery and promoting cellular repair.
What conditions can be treated with HBOT?
HBOT is FDA-approved for 14 conditions like burns, carbon monoxide poisoning, and non-healing wounds. Emerging research also supports its use for post-surgical recovery, brain injury, fatigue, inflammation, athletic recovery, and anti-aging. Our medical team will assess if HBOT is right for you.
Is hyperbaric oxygen therapy safe?
Yes, HBOT is safe when properly supervised. At MD Hyperbaric, treatments are protocol-driven, medically overseen, and administered by certified staff. Our Medical Director and onsite Safety Director ensure every session is carefully monitored, and we continuously update our protocols based on the latest research to prioritize patient safety.
How long is each session?
Typically, most treatment sessions are approximately 60 minutes (some conditions may require up to 90 or 120 minutes). In addition to the actual treatment time, there is time required for the pressurization and depressurization of the chamber, which may add 20 minutes to the overall appointment. The exact duration will depend on your specific treatment plan and the pressure levels used, but you should plan for about 90 minutes for your visit.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions depends on the condition being treated. Some patients may benefit from a few sessions, while others may require a more extended treatment plan. A typical protocol will involve 10-40 daily sessions to build up oxygen in the cells. Our Medical Director will recommend a specific treatment plan to address your goals and needs.
How should I prepare prior to a session?
Prior to treatment, please try to avoid alcohol or carbonated drinks. It’s best to avoid smoking and any other tobacco products during your treatment period, as they may interfere with the body’s ability to transport oxygen. This can directly affect the time it takes you to heal, and under no circumstance can you smoke 2 hours before or after a session. Otherwise, there are no restrictions for food or activity before or after your treatment. We encourage you to have healthy meals and stay hydrated.
What should I wear or bring to my session?
Most patients find HBOT sessions relaxing. You’ll rest comfortably in a 7½-foot-long steel chamber, breathing 100% pure oxygen through a mask. The oxygen has no smell or taste. During pressurization and depressurization, you may feel pressure changes, similar to airplane travel. A trained technician will monitor you throughout the session. You can sit or lie down inside the chamber, and afterward, you can resume normal activities, stay hydrated, and rest.
Why is a HBOT treatment session called a “dive”?
The term “dive” is used because the process simulates the experience of a deep-sea dive in a pressurized environment. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy has deep roots in diving as it is an important therapy in treating divers that are experiencing “the bends”. In the context of hyperbaric, pressure is increased to levels greater than atmospheric pressure, similar to what divers experience underwater.
What type of hyperbaric chamber do you use?
At MD Hyperbaric, we use the FDA-cleared OxyHealth Fortius420—a spacious, hard-shell chamber delivering 100% medical-grade oxygen via mask. Operating up to 3.0 ATA, it allows tailored pressures (typically 2.0–2.4 ATA) and supports air breaks for added benefits. With three windows and a 7½-foot length, it ensures comfort and meets the highest safety standards.
What is the difference between hard-shell and soft-shell hyperbaric chambers?
At MD Hyperbaric, we use hard-shell chambers that deliver 100% medical-grade oxygen at higher pressures for superior therapeutic benefits. In contrast, soft-shell chambers operate at lower pressures without medical-grade oxygen, making them less effective for medical treatment.
How do I know if I’m eligible for HBOT?
Our team will assess your medical history and specific circumstances through an intake process and initial evaluation with our certified staff and Medical Director will determine your eligibility for HBOT.
Do I need a referral from a doctor to receive HBOT?
No referral is needed. Our Medical Director will review your intake forms and prescribe HBOT if appropriate. If you have a prescription from a provider, we’ll coordinate with them. For serious health conditions, we may recommend getting clearance from your physician.
Do you accept insurance?
HBOT is generally not covered by insurance, though most FSA/HSA plans allow reimbursement (check with your provider). MD Hyperbaric is an out-of-network provider, so patients pay out-of-pocket. If you have one of the 14 insurance-approved conditions, reimbursement may be possible. We can provide a superbill and receipt to help you submit a claim to your insurer.
How much does it cost?
This is an out-of-pocket treatment and we offer a variety of pricing options designed to suit the different medical and financial needs and preferences of our patients. For flexibility, patients can opt for the pay-as-you-go plan at a per session rate. We also have several package options that offer sessions at a reduced rate when purchased upfront. Please contact us to discuss pricing and options. We accept cash, credit or check.
