Frequently Asked Questions
WHY DOES IT EVEN NEED?
The slowing down of many metabolic processes, as well as the reduced mitochondrial function that comes with age, is a natural occurrence. However, with IHHT (Intensive Health Therapy), you can promote natural health and slow down the aging process. We are creatures of nature, but we live in an unnatural environment. Simply put, the lack of natural energy on the one hand, and the many environmental toxins in our food, water, air, clothing, cosmetics, etc., on the other, negatively affect our mitochondria, causing them to become diseased and their function to decline unnaturally quickly. IHHT-PLUS is a therapy that restores your natural performance, makes you more resilient overall, and slows down the aging process by renewing the powerhouses in your cells. Ideally, you can make changes to both your environment and your behavior so that your mitochondria no longer "wear out" so quickly. We would be happy to explain how you can do this.
HOW DOES THE TREATMENT WORK?
An IHHT-PLUS treatment always begins with a detailed consultation, which is why the first session lasts approximately 90 minutes. IHHT-PLUS is conducted as a course of treatment, with 10-20 sessions, depending on the goal and health condition, taking place 1-3 times per week. Each treatment session lasts approximately 45 minutes. The course can be repeated annually or continued as a weekly training program. A corresponding subscription can be booked directly online under Packages & Prices, or you can choose the right offer after your first treatment.
WHAT IS THE FUNCTION OF MITOCHONDRIA?
All metabolic processes in our body require energy. Energy is needed to maintain or regain health and for physical and mental vitality. This energy is produced by the powerhouses in our cells, the mitochondria, in almost every single cell in our body. This production is also known as cellular respiration or internal respiration. The mitochondria convert "dietary energy" (energy from ingested carbohydrates and fats) into a form of energy that the cell can use. This conversion occurs through a redox reaction with the help of oxygen. Among other things, this process produces ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the universal and readily available energy carrier in cells and an important regulator of energy-supplying processes.
IS IT SUITABLE FOR EVERYONE?
No. People with an acute upper respiratory infection should (temporarily) refrain from IHHT. People suffering from severe heart failure or cancer should only undergo IHHT-PLUS after their blood levels have stabilized and they have consulted their doctor. IHHT is also not recommended for pregnant women in their first trimester.
How many mitochondria are there per cell?
Mitochondria are found in every human cell, except for red blood cells. A heart muscle cell, for example, can contain an estimated 5,000 to 6,000 mitochondria. The number and condition of mitochondria depend on factors such as lifestyle, diet, and fitness. This means we can directly influence mitochondrial performance and thus our physical and mental health. IHHT-PLUS acts directly on the mitochondria. On the one hand, old or damaged mitochondria are destroyed, and on the other hand, new and more efficient ones are formed.
WILL THE HEALTH INSURANCE COVER THE TREATMENT COSTS?
Although the method is medically recognized, health insurance companies do not yet cover the costs.
People who get too little exercise or have a poor diet generally have fewer active mitochondria in their cells. Consequently, their performance level is reduced; they have less energy available than in a healthy state. Fatigue, lethargy, exhaustion, and concentration problems are the consequences. In the medium to long term, migraines, diabetes, circulatory disorders, or skin diseases can develop. Even mental illnesses and dementia are attributed to mitochondrial dysfunction. These conditions are collectively referred to as "mitochondrial dysfunction" in mitochondrial medicine. Based on scientific findings, it can be assumed that almost all chronic diseases are associated with mitochondrial damage.
Is it also used in long-term COVID cases, and if so, with what results?
IHHT-PLUS can be used for all post-viral symptoms, whether caused by Covid-19, EBV, Lyme disease or herpes, and can have a positive impact on recovery!
