Evidence-based protocols for post-concussion syndrome and mild traumatic brain injury. At TrufaMED, every concussion HBOT protocol is designed and supervised in-person by a UHMS-licensed physician — with measurable gains documented in cognition, headache, mood, and sleep. Call (305) 537-6396 or book below.
Concussion is not a bruise — it is a metabolic crisis. Injured brain regions experience reduced blood flow, mitochondrial failure, and chronic hypoxia that persists long after imaging returns to “normal.” Hyperbaric oxygen therapy saturates blood plasma with 100% pure oxygen under pressure, penetrating deep brain structures where red cell circulation has been compromised. At TrufaMED, every concussion protocol is cleared through a full physical exam and on-site chest X-ray, and overseen by a UHMS-licensed physician in person for every session.
Post-concussion symptoms — headache, brain fog, memory problems, mood swings, light and noise sensitivity, sleep disruption — are driven by specific neurological mechanisms that HBOT is uniquely positioned to address.
HBOT is a refined, non-invasive experience that envelops your body in 100% pure concentrated oxygen. By relaxing within a private, pressurized environment, your system absorbs oxygen at a cellular level — far beyond what normal breathing allows. Patients seeking hyperbaric oxygen therapy in Miami choose our Surfside location for physician-led care in a private, medically supervised environment.
Care at TrufaMED is delivered by physicians certified through the Undersea & Hyperbaric Medical Society (UHMS), following UHMS-aligned protocols and clinical oversight standards for patient safety and treatment integrity. Our facility holds Joint Commission accreditation — the gold standard in healthcare quality.
TrufaMED operates a hard-sided clinical hyperbaric chamber at medically validated pressures of 1.5–2.5 ATA — unlike soft portable chambers used at wellness spas. This is the same standard used in peer-reviewed published clinical research and endorsed by the UHMS Indications Committee. Looking for HBOT near me? TrufaMED is minutes from Miami Beach, Bal Harbour, Bay Harbor Islands, Sunny Isles Beach, and Aventura.
Most importantly: a UHMS-licensed physician is physically present — in the room, not on-call — for every single session. That is the UHMS standard. It is the standard found in hospital hyperbaric units. It is the only way HBOT should be delivered.
Under hyperbaric pressure, oxygen dissolves directly into the blood plasma, lymphatic fluid, and cerebrospinal fluid — reaching tissues that red blood cells cannot.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has exploded in popularity — and with it, a wave of wellness spas and medspas offering sessions with no medical clearance, no physician present, and soft portable chambers that cannot reach therapeutic pressure. TrufaMED does not operate that way.
Our HBOT is delivered in a hard-sided clinical chamber at medically validated pressures of 1.5 to 2.5 ATA, with 100% pure oxygen. Sessions run 60 to 90 minutes. Every patient is screened before their first session with a full physical exam, medical history review, and an on-site chest X-ray to rule out contraindications like pneumothorax or bullae.
From clearance to chamber to recovery — here is exactly what to expect from your first visit through your follow-up sessions at TrufaMED.
Hyperbaric chambers are now found in spas, gyms, and wellness centers across Miami — most operating without physician oversight, medical clearance, or the safety protocols the UHMS and FDA require. At TrufaMED, HBOT is a medical procedure, not a spa treatment. Here is how we run it.
Each benefit is grounded in peer-reviewed science. Results are measurable through real clinical markers. This is not wellness theater — it is cellular medicine with documented, reproducible outcomes.
Before booking HBOT anywhere in Miami, ask these seven questions. Here is how TrufaMED compares to the typical wellness spa offering.

| Operating Pressure | ✓1.5–2.5 ATA (medically validated) | —1.3 ATA or less |
| Physician Oversight | ✓UHMS-certified physician supervision | —No medical oversight |
| Physician Present In-Person | ✓MD on-site for every session | —Technician only, if any |
| Pre-Treatment Clearance | ✓Full physical + on-site chest X-ray | —Typically none |

HBOT supports recovery for a wide range of medical and wellness indications. Explore our dedicated condition pages or ask your physician if HBOT is right for you.

Most patients at TrufaMED begin with the Wellness Package — intake evaluation plus 10 sessions — and extend from there based on goals and response. Here is a typical progression.
Responses vary by individual. Your physician designs and adjusts your protocol based on your clinical picture and treatment goals.
Your first visit at TrufaMED is your Initial Experience — a comprehensive physical exam, on-site chest X-ray, and your first HBOT session. Here is exactly what to plan for.
HBOT at TrufaMED is a direct-pay medical service. Most commercial insurance plans do not cover hyperbaric oxygen therapy outside of a narrow list of UHMS-approved indications (primarily diabetic wounds, radiation injury, and select post-surgical cases). For the vast majority of our patients, HBOT is self-pay — and we keep pricing transparent, all-inclusive, and predictable.
Published research and clinical observation show measurable shifts across four outcome categories during a typical HBOT protocol. Individual results vary — your physician establishes baseline markers and tracks your response at each session.
These visualizations represent typical directional changes documented in peer-reviewed HBOT research. Individual responses vary. TrufaMED does not claim specific outcomes; your physician will discuss realistic expectations for your case during your initial evaluation.
HBOT is safe for the vast majority of adults, but not everyone. Part of being UHMS-aligned is being honest about contraindications. Every patient is screened through a full physical exam and on-site chest X-ray before the first session — not after a deposit is charged.
If any of these apply to you, please disclose during your initial consultation. In some cases HBOT can still proceed with additional medical clearance or condition management. In others, we will decline to start therapy until the underlying issue is addressed or, if needed, permanently.

Cognitive rehabilitation is a critical component of concussion recovery, particularly for patients experiencing persistent symptoms such as difficulty concentrating, memory problems, word-finding difficulties, and slowed processing speed. While traditional cognitive rehabilitation relies on exercises and strategies to retrain brain function, HBOT provides the metabolic foundation that makes those exercises more effective. By restoring optimal oxygen delivery to damaged brain regions, HBOT creates the neurological conditions under which the brain can most effectively rewire itself.
At TrufaMED, we encourage patients to combine their HBOT protocol with any cognitive rehabilitation program recommended by their neurologist or neuropsychologist. The enhanced neuroplasticity induced by HBOT means that the brain is primed to form new connections and strengthen existing pathways during and after each treatment session. Many patients report that the mental clarity they experience after HBOT sessions makes their cognitive rehabilitation exercises feel more productive and less exhausting.
The brain's recovery from concussion is metabolically demanding. Neurons require specific nutrients to repair damaged membranes, rebuild synaptic connections, and restore normal neurotransmitter function. TrufaMED's integrated approach allows concussion patients to complement HBOT with targeted IV therapy formulations designed to support brain health.
NAD+ infusions are particularly relevant for concussion recovery. NAD+ is a coenzyme essential for mitochondrial energy production, DNA repair, and sirtuin activation, all processes that are critical for neuronal recovery after traumatic injury. By delivering NAD+ directly into the bloodstream via intravenous infusion, patients bypass the limitations of oral supplementation and achieve therapeutic levels that support brain repair at the cellular level.
Additionally, our Immune Boost and Myers' Cocktail IV drips provide high-dose B-vitamins, magnesium, and antioxidants that support nervous system function and reduce the oxidative stress that perpetuates post-concussion inflammation. Your TrufaMED physician will evaluate your individual needs and recommend the optimal combination of HBOT and IV therapy to support your concussion recovery journey.
