What is IHT?
IHT is a non-invasive therapy that mimics the effects of high-altitude training. It involves breathing in air with reduced oxygen levels for short periods, followed by breathing normal oxygen. This “hypoxia” (low oxygen) and “normoxia” (normal oxygen) cycle encourages your body to adapt, triggering several health benefits.
IHT benefits.
- Boosts Your Energy. IHT increases the production of energy in your cells by improving the function of mitochondria, the “powerhouses” of your cells. This boost in energy helps fight fatigue and leaves you feeling more energised throughout the day.
- Improves Your Immune System. By exposing your body to short bursts of low oxygen, IHT stimulates your immune system, making it stronger and more capable of fighting off infections. It’s beneficial for people looking to improve their overall health or recover from long-term conditions like long COVID.
- Supports Better Oxygen Use. IHT helps your body use oxygen more efficiently. This is great for athletes or anyone wanting to improve endurance and physical performance. It trains your body to perform better with less oxygen, leading to better stamina and quicker recovery.
- Helps with Stress Management. IHT positively influences the autonomic nervous system, which regulates the body’s stress responses. By enhancing this balance, IHT promotes relaxation and improves your ability to manage stress effectively.
- Enhances Recovery IHT is known for speeding up recovery from injuries or illnesses. It helps improve blood circulation and even supports liver and digestive function, helping your body process waste and toxins more effectively.
- Better for Heart Health IHT improves your cardiovascular system by enhancing blood flow and even encouraging the growth of new blood vessels in the heart. This can lower your risk of heart disease and improve overall heart function.
Who Can Benefit from IHT?
IHT is a versatile therapy that can benefit a wide range of people, from those recovering from illness to athletes looking to enhance their performance. It’s also useful for people dealing with fatigue, stress, or immune-related issues. Even if you don’t have any underlying health issues, you can use IHT for rejuvenation and to slow down aging.
How Often Should You Use IHT?
For best results, most people start with 10 to 20 sessions. The benefits of IHT build over time, so regular sessions are recommended for lasting improvements in energy, immunity, and overall well-being.
