I'll be honest — when I started Affordable Hyperbaric Solutions back in 2016, I didn't sit down and write a ten-year plan. What I had was a pretty clear problem I wanted to solve: hyperbaric oxygen therapy was priced and positioned as something only hospitals, clinics, and professional athletes could access. That never sat right with me.

Ten years later, I can say we've done something about that. Hundreds of families have had a chamber in their home. Veterans, kids with autism, folks recovering from Lyme disease, post-COVID symptoms, brain injuries — people who otherwise would have driven an hour each way to sit in a clinic chamber three times a week. Instead they had one at home, on their schedule, at a fraction of the cost.

How we got here

I've personally purchased over a thousand soft and hard shell chambers over the past decade — from seven different manufacturers. That gives me a vantage point that most people in this space simply don't have. I'm not an expert because I read about chambers. I'm someone who has dealt with the warranty issues, seen the zipper failures, watched polycarbonate windows cloud and yellow, and sourced replacements when frames cracked. I've traveled the globe looking for better.

That's actually how we landed on the brands we carry today. It wasn't because a manufacturer had the best marketing budget. It's because when I pushed them — literally asked a non-FDA manufacturer to double the thickness of their stainless steel internal frame — they did it. Fast. No extra charge. That kind of partnership is what builds something worth standing behind.

The brands we trust

We carry four brands today, and each one earned its place. Not because of FDA marketing, not because of price point — because they hold up, they perform, and when something goes wrong, the manufacturer stands behind it.

The OxyRevo line in particular stands out. I've watched their polycarbonate windows stay crystal clear while other brands' fogged and scratched within months. Their TPU fabric construction, metal frames, zipper quality — every system I've evaluated on those chambers beats what you'll find on most FDA-cleared soft shells, which are more expensive and, in my experience, more likely to develop warranty issues.

Ten years of milestones

What I've learned

The biggest thing I've learned in ten years is that people are more capable of making good decisions than a lot of the industry gives them credit for. They just need straight information from someone who isn't trying to scare them into a purchase.

I've had veterinarians tell clients they needed a $5,000-more-expensive FDA-cleared chamber to treat their dog's cancer — even though FDA clearance doesn't apply to cancer treatment and doesn't extend to animals. I sold that client a Newtowne 40-inch chamber instead and saved her five thousand dollars. The vet had no choice but to keep seeing that dog. That story still makes me laugh.

That's what ten years of doing this looks like. Not just rentals and sales — but actually helping people cut through the noise and find what works for them, at a price that doesn't put them in a worse spot financially than the condition they're trying to treat.

What's next

We're not slowing down. There's more product education coming — real information, not marketing copy. More transparency on how chambers compare so you can make a decision that actually fits your situation. And the same local Colorado delivery and setup experience we've offered from day one.

If you've got questions — about chambers, about therapy, about whether HBOT is right for you or someone you love — call us. Ask for me personally. I'll tell you what I know, what I don't know, and what I think. That's been the deal since 2016 and it isn't changing.

Thank you to every customer and family who trusted us over the past decade. You're the reason we show up.
