Improve physical vitality and recovery with our space-age CVAC hypobaric chamber technology. Repair your body's cells and boost your ability to perform and recover using cyclic altitude training.
The CVAC Pod has been used to stimulate the body's natural adaptation response. By using low-pressure (vacuum) environments, this pod will vary its density of air rhythmically and dynamically to help you adapt!
Unlike hypobaric chambers that work by increasing the air pressure to saturate the blood with oxygen and stimulate healing, the CVAC is based on the benefits created by constant and rapid pressure changes.
"Thank you for such a great experience! This MedSpa is beautiful and the staff is incredibly knowledgeable. Their expertise and care is greatly appreciated."

CVAC Hypobaric Chamber sessions start off at around $45 per session. We offer several multi-session packages. Contact us today to schedule your first regenerative session!
CVAC is intended for short-term effects and is more about improving overall fitness without the aggressive physical exertion often associated with an exercise regimen. Athletes have reported a gain in recovery, endurance, and power.
The creators of the machine, CVAC Systems, Inc., maintain that CVAC therapy has many of the same benefits as intense exercise. Comparing exercise to a CVAC session, the creators state that while both exercise and CVAC challenge the body to improve fitness, CVAC does so by varying air pressure, causing the body to adapt to the increased demand caused by the changes. As the body naturally adapts to the changes in air pressure, fitness improves and accelerates.
It is thought that spending 20 minutes in the pod just three times a week can improve circulation, boost oxygen-rich blood cells, reduce lactic acid, and potentially stimulate mitochondrial biogenesis and stem-cell production.
A CVAC Hypobaric Chamber session boasts the following benefits:
The therapy is easy. All you need to do is sit and relax in the pod while an external pump adjusts the barometric pressure inside, simulating increases and decreases in altitude.
But that's not where the science ends. As the pump forces the pressure to go down, the amount of breathable air available decreases, too. In this controlled environment, the patient is taken through a range of altitudes – from sea level to 22,500 feet – with intermediate heights along the way.
The standard pod session lasts 20 minutes, but sessions can go as long as an hour, depending on your current level of fitness and your desired results. While negative side effects normally result from ascending and descending altitude, these do not apply to CVAC therapy as the amount of time spent at each altitude is so short.
The only side effect that can occur during a CVAC session is ear discomfort due to the changes in altitude, similar to that experienced during takeoff and landing on a flight. Ear-clearing techniques are discussed before the session to help your ears adjust to the changes.
You can even bring your mobile device to help you pass the time during your session.
The pod-shaped CVAC is a little like the spacecraft from your dreams. You can fly it up to 22,500 feet above sea level and experience conditions similar to climates at higher altitudes in Peru's Andes mountain range!
The following are contraindications for CVAC System. We recommend you consult a medical professional with any medical questions or concerns. You should not use CVAC:
