About Hypoxico: The Best High Altitude Training
Our Legacy in Simulated Altitude Training
Since 1996, Hypoxico has been at the forefront of high altitude training innovation. As the original patent holder of normobaric hypoxic systems, we revolutionized how athletes, researchers, and explorers condition their bodies to perform at their peak. Our patented technologies allow users to simulate high-altitude environments without ever leaving sea level, transforming training efficiency, recovery time, and overall performance.
Our altitude systems are widely used in:
Elite athletic training centers
University performance labs
Military and tactical preparation facilities
Clinical and wellness environments
From Olympic athletes to professional mountaineers, Hypoxico remains the trusted name in simulated altitude.
What Sets Hypoxico Apart?
We Invented the Technology. Unlike companies that followed, Hypoxico was the first to patent and commercialize simulated altitude training. We are the original creators of:
Hypoxic room systems
Hypoxic tents
Passive and active training devices
Our patents include US No. 5799652, 5850833, 5887439, 5924419, 5964222, and international patents in Europe and Canada. These patents represent decades of research, development, and user-focused design.

Hypoxico FAQs
Is altitude training safe for everyone?
Yes, when used properly.
Hypoxico systems include safety features and user guides. Consult your physician if you have pre-existing health conditions.
What altitude levels can Hypoxico simulate?
Our systems can simulate altitudes from sea level to over 21,000 feet (0m to 6,400m) with controlled aviation solutions capable of achieving 30,000 feet (9,000m).
Can I use Hypoxico systems at home?
Absolutely. We offer solutions for homes, gyms, and clinics.
How does simulated altitude compare to natural altitude?
Simulated altitude offers the same physiological benefits without the travel, cost, or weather challenges.
How long should I train at altitude?
It depends on your goals. Many athletes sleep in altitude tents for 4–6 weeks before competition. Others train for 30–60 minutes daily.
Do I need to be an athlete to benefit?
