They say life is a series of silent explosions. We go about our daily lives until something happens that shakes our world. For some people, this event is a traumatic brain injury (TBI).
TBI can happen in any number of ways. An autumn. Car crash. Sports injury. Head injury. Whatever the cause, the results are often the same: cognitive problems, mood swings, irritability, insomnia, and more. These symptoms can be debilitating, making it difficult to work, socialize, or even engage in basic daily activities.
For many people with TBI, the road to recovery is long and full of setbacks. But recovery is possible, as the documentary Quiet Explosions shows.
Quiet bursts: brain healing is a documentary film that follows the stories of three TBI survivors: NFL player Mark Rypien, NHL player Chris Davis and MMA fighter Chris Dollar. Each of them had their lives turned upside down by their injuries, but each was able to find help and eventually rebuild their lives. Released on November 10, 2020 on Amazon.
For example, Rypien struggled with depression and mood swings after his injury. He found relief with hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), a treatment that helps improve brain function by delivering oxygen to cells.
Meanwhile, Davis was helped by neurofeedback, a type of therapy that uses electrical stimulation to retrain the brain. After years of treatment, he was finally able to return to the ice and resume his professional career.
Dealing with both TBI and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), Dollar has found relief with a combination of therapies, including EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing), a powerful therapy for coping with emotional trauma.

By targeting these areas of the brain, TMS therapy can help people with PTSD process and store memories in a more healthy way. Helped rehabilitate people with PTSD and traumatic brain injuries.
