FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions.
Everything about our chambers, clinical heritage, and installation, in one place.
What is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)?
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy involves breathing in oxygen from a microcirculation while breathing oxygen-rich air. The main oxygen levels inside the body reach 10–15 times the normal amounts at sea level, helping to boost healing, reduce inflammation, and improve recovery.
How is Coral different from traditional hyperbaric chambers?
Coral chambers go far from clinical-grade engineering to designed for wellness, comfort. You get medical-grade safety with a spa-level aesthetic, ergonomic seating, advanced climate control, minimal noise, and intelligent automation.
What does a session feel like?
Similar to an airplane. Most users report a gentle pressure in their ears during the initial descent into therapeutic pressure. Once at target pressure, you simply relax. Many people read, meditate, or sleep.
How long does a session take?
Typically 60–90 minutes, depending on the pressure protocol. For wellness purposes, many centers follow a plan of around 10–20 sessions over several weeks.
What are the wellness benefits of HBOT?
Benefits can include reduced inflammation, accelerated wound and tissue healing, enhanced recovery after intense exercise, support for neurological health, improved skin quality and collagen production, and general anti-aging effects.
Who can use Coral chambers?
Most healthy adults can benefit from HBOT. However, individuals with certain conditions should consult a healthcare provider before starting HBOT.
Are Coral chambers designed for claustrophobic users?
Yes. Coral chambers feature generous interior dimensions, ambient lighting, and transparent viewing panels designed to create a calm, open feeling during sessions.
What pressures do Coral chambers operate at?
Coral products can be calibrated for pressures from 0.5 to 2.0 BAR (depending on the model and configuration). Medical configurations can go up to 3.0 ATA.
Do Coral chambers require staff to operate?
Coral chambers are designed to be operated by trained staff. Our Software Automation System enables monitoring and operation through the built-in interface.
What certifications do Coral products have?
Coral chambers are certified under PED 2014/68/EU, ASME PVHO-1, ISO 13485, CE marking, and other relevant international standards for pressure vessels and medical devices.
What maintenance do Coral chambers require?
Routine maintenance includes periodic inspection of seals, valves, and pressure systems. Coral provides maintenance manuals and remote support for all installations.
How does the BIBS (Built-in Breathing System) work?
The BIBS delivers oxygen while continuously monitoring CO₂ levels. It supports independent breathing for each user inside the chamber.
Can Coral chambers be installed in small spaces?
Yes. Coral One and Coral Pod are designed with different footprints, allowing placement in wellness rooms, studios, spas, or clinical suites.
Who is behind Coral?
Coral was established by HBO Group, 30 years of expertise in high-pressure manufacturing through Hipertech, and over two decades of hyperbaric engineering experience. A strong collaboration between established expertise and innovative approach.
