HBOT Safety at Revive
Designed for Comfort, Built with Care
If you’re new to hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), it’s natural to have questions — especially when you see headlines or online discussions that don’t always explain the full picture.
At Revive, we believe the best way to build confidence is through clear, calm information. So here’s a simple explanation of how the hyperbaric systems we use are designed, and why they have such a strong safety record.
Not all HBOT systems are the same
HBOT exists across a spectrum.
Some systems are used in hospitals for acute medical conditions and operate at high pressures in oxygen-rich environments. Others — including the systems used at Revive — are designed for everyday recovery, wellbeing, and performance support.
The hyperbaric chambers we use fall into the second category: mild / smart HBOT.
This distinction matters, because the design, operating pressure, and safety profile are very different.
How our HBOT systems are designed for safety
Normal air, not an oxygen-filled chamber
The chambers at Revive:
Operate using normal ambient air
Do not fill the chamber with pure oxygen
Do not rely on stored oxygen tanks or canisters
If oxygen is used at all, it is delivered locally via a mask, rather than changing the air inside the chamber. This helps keep the internal environment stable and controlled.
Lower pressure, gentler conditions
Mild HBOT works at lower pressures than hospital-based systems.
This creates a more comfortable experience for clients and places less stress on materials and components — one of the reasons it’s so well suited to regular wellness use.
Fire-resistant materials and thoughtful engineering
Modern mild HBOT chambers are built specifically for this environment, using:
Fire-resistant, medical-grade materials
Carefully controlled airflow and pressure systems
Non-sparking internal components
These aren’t optional extras — they’re part of how the chambers are designed from the ground up.
Approved for everyday use (including electronics)
One of the clearest signs of this design approach is that OneHype chambers include a built-in TV inside the chamber.
Manufacturers simply wouldn’t integrate powered electronics unless the chamber environment had been assessed and approved for that use.
In line with manufacturer guidance, low-power personal devices such as laptops or tablets can also be used, provided safety guidelines are followed. Items that generate heat or pose unnecessary risk are, of course, excluded.
Safety is also about how we operate
Even the best equipment relies on good practice.
At Revive, we:
Follow manufacturer safety and operating guidelines closely
Carry out checks before each session
Control what items are brought into the chamber
Ensure staff are trained in hyperbaric safety and client care
Maintain equipment to a high standard
This combination of good design and good practice is what underpins the excellent safety record of mild HBOT.
We’ll take care of you
