Common questions
What is the difference between a hard and soft hyperbaric chamber?
Hard chambers (monoplace or multiplace) reach 1.5–3.0 ATA and are used in clinical HBOT settings for wound healing, decompression sickness, and certain approved indications. Soft chambers reach 1.1–1.5 ATA and are used for wellness and recovery. Soft chambers are more widely available; hard chambers require a clinician on-site.
How long is a session and what pressure is used?
Typical sessions run 60–90 minutes. Clinical hard-chamber protocols are usually 1.5–2.0 ATA; wellness soft chambers typically run 1.3 ATA. More pressure is not always better — the appropriate level depends on your goal. Ask the venue what pressure their chamber reaches before booking.
Will I be screened before my session?
Any reputable HBOT venue should screen for contraindications including ear or sinus congestion, recent surgery, certain lung conditions, and claustrophobia before your first session. Clinical facilities will also review medications and medical history. Do not use a venue that skips this step.
Safety note
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has contraindications including certain lung conditions, recent ear surgery, and some medications. Clinical HBOT at high pressures should only be used under medical supervision.
