What is IHHT Therapy?
IHHT (Intermittent Hypoxic-Hyperoxic Training) is a cuttingedge therapy designed to improve cellular function by alternately exposing the body to low oxygen (hypoxia) and high oxygen (hyperoxia) phases. Originating from space technology, this therapy has been successfully applied to numerous medical conditions and is known for its ability to rejuvenate cells and improve physical performance. During IHHT, old, damaged mitochondria are broken down, and new, healthy mitochondria are formed, boosting energy and enhancing overall health.
Benefits from IHHT
-
Improve physical performance and stamina.
-
Enhance recovery from fatigue or stress.
-
Boost metabolic function and overall wellness.
-
Support anti-aging efforts by promoting cellular regeneration.
What to Expect During the Procedure
Dr. med V. Camenzind personally oversees the IHHT (Intermittent Hypoxic-Hyperoxic Training) procedure at Dermedesthetic. The treatment begins with a brief assessment to customize the oxygen levels to your individual needs. You’ll then be comfortably seated or reclined, wearing a mask connected to the IHHT machine.
The session alternates between low-oxygen (hypoxia) and high-oxygen (hyperoxia) phases, which lasts 40-50 minutes. Throughout the process, your heart rate, oxygen saturation, and respiratory patterns are closely monitored by sophisticated software to ensure optimal performance. This cellular training stimulates the breakdown of old, damaged mitochondria and promotes the growth of new, healthy ones, resulting in improved energy and overall well-being.
Patients typically feel relaxed, with no discomfort during the treatment. While some may feel mild fatigue after the first few sessions, this usually gives way to increased energy and vitality as treatments progress. No recovery period is necessary, and you can resume your day immediately after the session.
