In every moment of life, to think and to move, the body needs a constant supply of energy. Moreover, there are fatigue situations, such as sports performance at various levels, age-related weariness, stress, etc., that may require extra energy. OX2 MASTER® is a device designed to improve and optimise energy flow. Based on a personalised supply of hypoxic and hyperoxic air at intervals, this tool produces a measurable performance improvement in all athletes, whether professional or amateur, and enhances wellness in general, at any age.

The core of the device is oxygen, hence its trade name. It is well known that the experience of breathing high in the mountains is different. Why? What we call “air” is actually a mixture of gases with the same percentage of oxygen (21%) as at sea level. What changes with altitude is the partial atmospheric pressure which, as altitude increases, decreases the amount of oxygen per unit of volume.  When we breathe, two gases – oxygen and carbon dioxide – are exchanged between blood and tissues. The higher the altitude, the less oxygen reaches the lungs while we breathe; therefore the reduction in atmospheric pressure places the body in a condition we call hypoxia. When hypoxia is moderate and intermittent, the body activates mechanisms that produce very positive effects: after various studies, this phenomenon has given rise to a treatment called “intermittent hypoxia”, which is based on the intermittence between hypoxia and hyperoxia. In the past, many devices have simulated altitude conditions, but none has offered the personalisation, the quantities, and the hypoxic and hyperoxic intervals of OX2 MASTER®. Trials involving participants of both sexes, multiple age groups, and various physical conditions, measuring different types and levels of activity performed, have all recorded a significant increase in the body’s functional and regenerative performance from the first month of treatment. 

HOW IT WORKS

When the oxygen concentration in the body drops below a critical level (hypoxia) or exceeds a certain threshold (hyperoxia), normal physiological processes are altered, causing different types of stress in the body. There is, however, a limit to the oxygen to be taken. The most recent studies conducted by the Universities of Padua and Brussels have highlighted the need for alternating intervals of hypoxia and hyperoxia to increase performance and improve physical well-being. By repeating these changes in cellular homeostasis, like what happens when training, it is possible to produce compensatory and regenerative reactions. Not only does this approach increase the benefits obtained through physical activity, it also enables those who cannot access a sufficient level of activity for any reason (rehabilitation, injuries, age, post-traumatic recovery, etc.), to mimic – at a cellular level – an “effort” greater than the one actually made and to recover from fatigue.

AN INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY FOR EVERYONE

While sitting comfortably or practising moderate sports activity, the user wears a disposable silicone mask, and OX2 MASTER® adapts to the breathing mode, delivering a constant flow of air at hypoxic and hyperoxic intervals.

In the case of athletes, amateur or professional, the treatment can be customised to maximise its effectiveness and provide a significant improvement in athletic performance. The device adapts to the user’s breathing mode, thanks to the delivery of a constant flow of air, an extraordinary innovation in the field of respiratory treatment devices. Furthermore, the device is suitable for individual / private use: it can be enjoyed by users of a gym or sports centre, due to the provision of disposable accessories, or comfortably at home.

OX2 MASTER® allows for the flow of oxygen to be adjusted individually, thanks to the integrated oximeter, and is equipped with a system for storing the exercise or treatment session data so the user can evaluate and record progress.

WELLNESS FOR EVERY AGE AND PASSION

The benefits of OX2 MASTER® are not reserved for athletes. The device can make a difference in any situation that requires an increase in energy: after convalescing from illness, in case of fatigue, stress, etc. It can help in weight management, in improving metabolism and as a form of prevention before events where the body needs an extraordinary supply of energy. OX2 MASTER® not only supports healthy physical training in athletes, it also reproduces the beneficial effects of training in sedentary or elderly people. It does this by engaging the respiratory muscles and modulating the body’s responses to oxidative stress involved in the activation of cellular and tissue degeneration mechanisms underlying ageing.
