How do I choose the right pressure level (1.3, 1.4, or 1.5 ATA)?
Choosing the right pressure depends on your goals, health background, and comfort level with pressurization. Airvida softshell chambers offer 1.3 to 1.5 ATA, which falls within the category of mild hyperbaric oxygen therapy (mHBOT). These levels are safe for regular, non-clinical use at home or in wellness settings.
🔹 1.3 ATA – Gentle Wellness & Adaptation
-
Easiest on the ears and body
-
Ideal for beginners, elderly users, or daily light wellness
-
Can be used more frequently with minimal adaptation period
Best for: New users, children, light fatigue, general wellness
🔸 1.4 ATA – Balanced Recovery & Performance
-
Increases oxygen absorption compared to 1.3 ATA
-
Helps reduce inflammation and supports brain function
-
Popular with athletes, professionals, and busy adults
Best for: Brain fog, active recovery, mild neurological support
🔺 1.5 ATA – Deep Oxygenation & Cellular Repair
-
Highest pressure in most portable softshell chambers
-
Delivers more oxygen to deeper tissue layers
-
Used for more advanced wellness protocols
Best for: Long-term recovery, more intensive health goals, frequent users
🔬 What about pressures above 1.5 ATA?
Pressures above 1.5 ATA (typically 2.0 to 2.5 ATA) are used in clinical or hospital-grade hyperbaric chambers. These are intended for medical conditions like non-healing wounds, carbon monoxide poisoning, or radiation injury.
-
Require 100% medical oxygen
-
Must be administered under supervision
-
Not available in portable or home-use units
Airvida chambers focus on safe, effective wellness support — not hospital-grade interventions.
💡 Tip: Many users see excellent results with consistent use at 1.3–1.5 ATA, even without 100% oxygen. Remember: frequency + comfort > raw pressure.
