February 2025 Impact Report
Hyperbaric Healing for the Fargo Community
Reflecting on Healing: February’s Impact at Healing with Hyperbarics
We’re proud to continue to share the powerful strides made at Healing with Hyperbarics in Fargo, ND. From treating concussions to supporting our veterans and contributing to the local community, every session reflects our commitment to healing and innovation through hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy.
Changing the Standard of Concussion Care
We are changing the standard of care for concussions from “management” to treatment. Concussion patients are told to “manage symptoms with rest” but are not given real treatment to allow them to truly heal the brain.
Our approach to treating concussions with hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy offers a new path to recovery—shifting the standard of care from passive symptom monitoring to active healing.
“Great experience, helped my son get rid of concussion symptoms after just 3 treatments!”

February 2025 Concussion Highlights
Acute Concussions
Acute concussions are defined as injuries treated within 2 weeks of occurrence. Our protocol aims for rapid improvement, with many patients experiencing full symptom recovery in just a few days.
10 acute concussions treated in February
1 to 5 treatments per patient until full symptom resolution
4 treatments needed for full recovery, on average
Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS)
For concussions that linger beyond 2 weeks, we tailor treatment to each individual’s needs, aiming for the quickest recovery possible.
1 post-concussion syndrome (PCS) patient treated in January
This is exciting, because it means we are seeing far more acute concussions! Patients are coming in sooner with symptoms, require fewer treatments and experience faster healing.
On average, PCS patients required 10 treatments for full symptom resolution
Far From Fargo Impact
Healing with Hyperbarics is a premier concussion clinic, drawing patients from across the Midwest (and beyond!). In February alone, concussion patients traveled a combined 171 miles to receive care at our Fargo location.
In 2025, we’re committed to continue offering FREE monthly treatment days for veterans, showing the power of HBO therapy for conditions like PTSD, post-concussion syndrome, traumatic brain injuries and more.
Supporting Veterans Through Healing
Since opening in 2018, Healing with Hyperbarics has prioritized veteran care through pilot studies with Veterans Affairs, grant programs, and community partnerships. We are continuing this initiative in 2025 with monthly FREE treatment days for Veterans.
“Started these treatments this month at Healing with Hyperbarics in Fargo as a veteran with the veteran program, and it has been an amazing experience. The staff is AMAZING! … If you’re a veteran and suffer from PTSD and pain, please look into this!”
– Jon K., local veteran

Community Impact: Dr. Denham Celebrates a Big Milestone!
Dr. Daphne Denham, founder and medical director of Healing with Hyperbarics, has not only returned to Fargo full-time, but she is celebrating a big milestone—10 years of treating concussions with hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy!
She began treating concussions with hyperbaric oxygen therapy in 2015 in her Northbrook, IL office. Since then, she has opened another clinic (hello Fargo, ND!) and has treated more than 1,000 concussions.
