Simulated Altitude Climate in Your Hotel Room
Targeted altitude stimuli for recovery and physical adaptability — conveniently during your stay
At a glance
Recovery as in the mountains
As altitude increases, the availability of oxygen changes. Our body responds to this with various adaptation processes — a principle that has long been used in altitude and endurance training.
At Buff Medical Resort, such an altitude climate can be simulated under controlled conditions. For this, the oxygen concentration of the room air is adjusted individually, so that conditions are created that resemble a stay at higher altitude.
What is special: the application can take place directly in your room and during your rest or sleep phases.
Altitude conditions — controlled and individually set
In simulated altitude climate, it is not the air pressure that is changed, but the oxygen content of the room air that is reduced in a controlled manner. This creates conditions of the kind the body knows from higher altitudes.
At Buff Medical Resort, the altitude climate can be tailored individually to your personal prerequisites following a medical consultation.
In this way, a controlled hypoxic stimulus can be integrated into your stay — without an actual stay in the high mountains being necessary.
What is the aim of the altitude climate?
Adaptability
The reduced oxygen content sets a controlled stimulus to which the organism responds with various adaptation processes.
Recovery
The altitude climate can be used as a complementary element of an individually tailored recovery programme.
Performance
It is known from altitude and endurance training that oxygen stimuli are used specifically for adaptation to physical exertion.
Metabolism
Since oxygen plays a central role in energy production, at BUFF the altitude climate is also considered in the context of metabolism and physical resilience.
Recovery while you sleep
Medical consultation
Before the application, it is reviewed whether simulated altitude climate is suitable for you and which intensity matches your individual prerequisites.
Individual settings
The oxygen concentration in your room is adjusted according to the desired altitude.
Altitude stimulus during the rest phase
You spend your rest and sleep phases in your room entirely as normal, while the altitude climate that has been set generates a controlled oxygen stimulus.
A special element for recovery and performance
Simulated altitude climate may be of interest, for example:
- for physically active people
- if physical performance is to be developed specifically
- as part of a recovery programme
- after phases of high physical or professional demands
- as a complement to IHHT and exercise testing
- if metabolism and energy production are considered specifically
- within an individually tailored prevention or longevity programme
Whether and at what intensity simulated altitude climate is used is determined individually and following a medical consultation.
Altitude climate directly in your room
At Buff Medical Resort, simulated altitude climate is integrated directly into the experience of your stay.
Following a medical consultation, the oxygen concentration can be set individually. You therefore experience the controlled altitude stimulus in your familiar resting environment — without an additional training session and without having to leave your room.
Depending on the individual setting, conditions can be simulated that correspond to a stay at several thousand metres of altitude.

Promoting recovery consciously
Recovery is an active part of our health. Sleep, stress regulation and the autonomic nervous system all help determine how well the body returns to a balanced state after exertion.
