About Us
A traumatic brain injury happens when a sudden injury to the head disrupts normal brain function. This can be due to a closed head injury (something hits your head hard but doesn’t break the skull) or a penetrating head injury (an object enters your brain).
TBI may cause temporary issues, or it can lead to long-term challenges such as brain swelling, damage to the brain tissue, or even brain death in the most severe cases.
Common head injury causes include:
According to the Brain Trauma Foundation, millions of people with traumatic brain injury each year require medical attention and rehabilitation.

The impact of a TBI depends on injury severity and the area of the brain affected. Doctors typically classify brain injuries into three categories:
Often called concussion or mild traumatic brain injuries.
Symptoms may include headache, dizziness, mild TBI symptoms like memory lapses, or confusion.
Most patients recover, but even a mild TBI can require structured therapy to prevent complications.
Moderate or severe TBI often leads to significant challenges in mobility, speech, or thinking.
Patients with severe TBI may face long-term brain damage, brain swelling, or loss of independence.
Severe traumatic brain injury can cause bleeding, swelling of the brain, or pressure on the brain that needs urgent medical attention.
The initial injury (primary injury) occurs at the moment of trauma.
Secondary injuries may develop following brain injury, such as bleeding in the brain, low brain tissue oxygen, or complications that increase the risk of disability.
At Rehabana, diagnosis begins with compassion and clarity. Families often feel anxious, so our doctors take time to explain every step.
We start with a neurological exam to test reflexes, balance, and speech. Families also share details of the injury causes and patient’s medical history.
CT scans or MRIs reveal damage to the brain tissue, swelling of the brain, or a closed head injury. In some cases, doctors detect a diffuse injury or penetrating head injury.
Using the Glasgow Coma Scale, doctors classify cases as mild TBI, moderate TBI, or severe traumatic brain injury.
Memory, problem-solving, and emotional health are evaluated to guide therapy.
At Rehabana, diagnosis is always followed by a management of traumatic brain injury plan, so families leave with hope and direction — not just a medical report.
The brain is delicate, and even a mild traumatic brain injury can cause temporary disruptions. Severe injuries may cause damage to the brain cells, brain parenchyma, or disrupt blood flow within the brain.
Some common effects include:
Physical impact: Trouble walking, moving, or performing daily activities.
Cognitive impact: Memory loss, reduced attention span, slower problem-solving.
Emotional impact: Depression, anxiety, anger, or mood swings.
Long-term risks: Traumatic brain injury may increase the risk of neurological conditions later in life.
When part of the brain is injured, functions controlled by that brain area are affected. For example:
Injury to the frontal lobe may cause personality or behavioral changes.
Injury to the temporal lobe may affect speech or memory.
Injury to the occipital lobe may cause vision problems.
That’s why treatment for TBI is never “one-size-fits-all.” Each patient needs a personalized plan that targets the specific area of the brain affected.
Medical care saves lives immediately after the initial injury. But after that, many patients are left wondering: “What next?”
Without structured rehabilitation, a patient may face lifelong dependence.
With therapy and proper management of traumatic brain injury, the brain can re-learn skills, and patients can return to daily life.
At Rehabana, we often meet families who say: “We didn’t know how to handle this at home.” That’s where we come in — offering step-by-step, doctor-guided treatment for TBI that’s both practical and hopeful.
Every patient begins with a consultation with our MD specialists in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation. Together with families, we set clear goals and adjust them every 2 weeks.
We use robotics, gait trainers, and modern therapy machines that improve outcomes faster than traditional physiotherapy.
We treat patients like family. Recovery is not just physical it’s emotional and mental. Our approach addresses the whole person, not just the injury.
Unlike large hospitals where rehab is costly and inpatient-focused, Rehabana offers specialized, cost-effective, and transparent care.
Our care team includes physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, psychologists, and rehab nurses — all working together for holistic outcomes.
Rehabilitation is the heart of recovery. After the initial injury is treated in a hospital, patients come to Rehabana for structured rehab.
Helps restore strength, mobility, and coordination for traumatic brain injury patients.
Trains patients to manage everyday tasks – eating, dressing, writing – to regain independence.
Restores communication, swallowing, and cognitive-linguistic skills for people with TBI.
Improves attention, memory, and problem-solving for people with traumatic brain injury.
Uses machines to support walking and limb movement, especially useful in severe injury cases.
Supports mental wellbeing for patients and families. Family about the injury is also counseled so they can manage challenges together.
For patients with severe TBI, care goes beyond therapy:
Prevent secondary injury with careful monitoring of blood pressure, oxygen, and brain tissue health.
Manage pressure on the brain due to swelling.
Treatment involves controlling seizures, managing spasticity, and preventing infections.
Support blood flow to the brain and reduce risk of brain death.
Our team follows global protocols, including recommendations from the Brain Trauma Foundation, while keeping care simple and transparent for families.
Recovery following traumatic brain injury depends on many factors: the initial injury, patient age, health, and injury severity.
Mild TBI → Most recover within weeks, but some may need therapy to address effects of TBI like dizziness or memory issues.
Moderate to severe traumatic brain injury → Requires long-term rehab to restore brain function and independence.
Severe head injury patients → Even if they cannot return fully to normal, structured rehab helps them avoid complications and live more productive lives.
At Rehabana, we’ve seen significant brain recovery even in patients who had lost hope. Structured rehab ensures that treatment of mild, moderate and severe injuries is tailored to each patient.
It depends on the injury severity. Mild traumatic brain injuries may improve in weeks, but moderate and severe TBI often need months of therapy.
Rest is important, but treatment other than rest is necessary. Without structured rehab, TBI symptoms may worsen.
Yes. Many people with traumatic brain injury return to work after rehab, though some adjustments may be required.
No. Therapies may be challenging but are designed to be safe and supportive.
Absolutely. We guide the family about the injury, provide emotional counseling, and involve them in goal-setting.
