The right hyperbaric chamber depends on three choices: the pressure you need, soft or hard shell, and where it will live. This guide explains each one, with the models we carry as examples.
What a hyperbaric chamber is
A hyperbaric chamber is a sealed enclosure that raises the air pressure around you while you breathe oxygen. Pressure is measured in ATA (atmospheres absolute). 1.0 ATA is normal pressure at sea level, so a 1.5 ATA chamber holds pressure about 50% above that.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a medical treatment, and regulators such as the FDA decide which conditions it is cleared to treat. We do not make treatment claims here. Ask your doctor whether it is right for you.
Pressure: 1.3, 1.5 and 2.0 ATA
Our chambers run from 1.3 ATA up to 3.0 ATA. Pressure and shell type are related, but not the same choice: many hard-shell models also come in a 1.5 ATA version.
| Pressure | Shell types | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| 1.3 to 1.5 ATA | Mostly soft shell, plus some hard shell | Oxyair RT01, RZT01, RD02 and RW01 (soft); Macy Pan HP1501 (hard, 1.5 ATA) |
| 1.7 to 2.0 ATA | Hard shell | Oxyair YTD (2.0 ATA); Oxyair YZM02 (adjusts from 1.3 to 2.0 ATA); Macy Pan HP2202 (2.0 ATA) |
| 3.0 ATA | Hard shell, clinical | HBOT4LIFE Alexander |
Higher pressure needs a stronger shell, more oxygen supply and more setup. Ask your doctor what pressure suits your situation. We cannot recommend one.
Soft shell or hard shell
Soft-shell chambers have a flexible body. They are lighter, easier to move and store, and in our range run at 1.3 to 1.5 ATA. Hard-shell chambers have a rigid aluminum, composite or steel body and are larger and heavier. They come in 1.5 ATA and 2.0 ATA versions, and some clinical models go higher. The Oxyair YTD hard shell is built for home, spa or clinic use.
Lying down, seated or both
Pick the position you can hold comfortably for a full session.
- Lying down: Oxyair RT01 (1.5 ATA, soft shell).
- Lying down or seated: Oxyair RZT01 (1.5 ATA, soft shell). A folding chair is included.
- Two adults: Oxyair RD02 (1.5 ATA, soft shell, seats two).
- Wheelchair users: Oxyair RW01 (1.3 ATA, soft shell), designed so a wheelchair user can enter.
Our Seated and Macy-Pan collections list more models by those styles.
Space, power and setup
Check three things before you order:
- Room and doorways. Measure the floor space and every doorway the chamber has to pass through. Each product page lists the chamber's dimensions.
- Power. Note the outlet nearest to where the chamber will sit. The oxygen concentrator and air unit need power.
- What is included. Contents vary by model. The RZT01, for example, comes with a 10L oxygen concentrator and a folding chair.

Prescriptions and medical supervision
We sell hyperbaric chambers to medical professionals and to customers with a prescription, and verification is required before orders can be fulfilled.
Our return and refund policy treats prescription-required items as non-returnable. Talk with your doctor and confirm your choice with us before you order. Call 1-800-827-8283 to ask how the policy applies to the chamber you are considering.
What chambers cost
Soft-shell chambers cost about $6,000 to $16,000. Hard-shell chambers start around $18,000 and clinical models go past $100,000. Pressure options and what is included change the price within each group.
| Type | Price range | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Soft shell, one person | $5,959 to $15,900 | Oxyair RT01, OxyRevo Elite, Macy Pan ST2200 |
| Hard shell, one person | $18,429 to $54,000 | Oxyair YTD, Macy Pan HP2202 |
| Hard shell, two to five people | $52,999 to $82,900 | Oxyair YZM02, Macy Pan HE5000 |
| Clinical, 3.0 ATA | $102,000 to $107,000 | HBOT4LIFE Alexander |
Prices are shown as ranges. Contents vary by model, so check each product page for what is included.
Shipping and returns
Shipping is calculated at checkout. Many chambers ship as freight, so inspect the delivery before you sign and note any damage on the delivery ticket. Report damage or missing items within 48 hours.
Returns are generally accepted within 14 days with a Return Authorization number, which you get by emailing healthrevival@rehabmart.com. The standard restocking fee is 30%, and some manufacturers charge more. Prescription-required and custom-built items are non-returnable. Read the full return and refund policy before you order.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a prescription? Hyperbaric Chambers can only be sold to medical professionals or customers with a prescription, with verification required before orders can be fulfilled.
Which pressure should I choose? Ask your doctor. We cannot recommend a pressure.
Can two people use one chamber? The Oxyair RD02 seats two adults. Larger hard-shell models, such as the Macy Pan HE5000 and the Oxyair YZM02, seat two to five.
Do you have a wheelchair accessible chamber? Yes. The Oxyair RW01 and the OxyRevo Heal are designed for wheelchair access.
