Soft vs Hard Shell HBOT
Soft Shell Chamber
Not FDA-Approved for Human Occupancy
Softshell (or mild) HBOT chambers are inflatable units that typically operate at 1.3 ATA (atmospheres of pressure) and deliver oxygen via a mask or concentrator. While they offer convenience and affordability, they have notable limitations:
Pros
Portable and compact
Lower cost
May offer light wellness benefits
Cons
Limited pressure (less effective oxygen absorption)
Does not deliver 100% oxygen — usually ambient air or low-concentration oxygen
Minimal impact for more serious or athletic recovery needs
Hard Shell Chamber
FDA-Approved for Human Occupancy
Hardshell chambers are fully pressurized, rigid units that deliver oxygen at 2.0 ATA or higher. This setup allows your body to absorb far more oxygen — unlocking the full healing and recovery potential of HBOT.
Benefits of Hardshell HBOT
100% Medical-Grade Oxygen
Stronger Anti-Inflammatory and Healing Effects
Ideal for Athletes, Chronic Conditions, Post-Surgery Recovery and Performance
