MITOVIT®-therapy
Oxygen training to improve cell regulation
What is the MITOVIT®-therapy?
MITOVIT®-therapy is a comprehensive training program at cellular level. Breathing in varying concentrations of oxygen promotes an increase in cell strength (mitochondrial activity).
Mitochondria are the "power plants" of our cells and are responsible for energy production. In such an IHHT method (interval hypoxia-hyperoxia training), oxygen-poor (hypoxic) and oxygen-rich (hyperoxic) air is inhaled alternately through a mask.
This leads to the activation of mitochondria in the cell, the disposal of old ones and the formation of new mitochondria. In endurance/performance sport, altitude training (hypoxia training) has long been known as a method for improving performance.

Advantages for oncology patients
- Improvement of cell regeneration
- Increase in performance/energy
- Strengthening the immune system
- Balancing the vegetative nervous system (tension, stress, sleep disorders, digestive problems, ...)
- Increase in fat metabolism/weight reduction
- Support for the cardiovascular system
In the case of known lung and heart diseases or acute events, therapy must be clarified in detail.

How does the treatment work?
The treatment takes place in a relaxed lying or sitting position. A breathing mask is used to alternately supply low-oxygen and oxygen-rich air. The treatment usually lasts around 40 minutes in a weekly rhythm of 10-14 sessions.
