In-Depth Insights into Intermittent Hypoxia Training (IHHT/IHT)

This online module offers an in-depth exploration of the foundations and background of Intermittent Hypoxia-Hyperoxia Therapy (IHHT) and Intermittent Hypoxia Training (IHT). Additional topics are covered to provide a broader understanding of the method. The module consists of 16 learning units.

Participants will gain insights into:

  • the diverse physiological effects of hypoxic stimuli on the human body

  • different measurement and observation approaches discussed in research and application contexts

  • examples of typical curve patterns and their interpretation as a theoretical exercise

The focus is on general knowledge transfer and subject-specific orientation. This offering is intended for individuals who wish to expand their understanding of IHHT/IHT, without providing therapeutic instruction or qualification for practical application.

Note: This online offering is for informal educational purposes only. It does not provide therapeutic qualification, systematic application training, or any state-recognized certification.


Entry requirements:
There are no requirements.
