Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) provides insights into body composition using electrical currents. The different conductivity of tissues and body fluids can be used to determine muscle mass, fat content and water balance. This is particularly important in old age in order to monitor the loss of muscle mass (sarcopenia), which can lead to loss of mobility and an increased risk of falling. BIA also helps to recognise visceral fat, which accumulates around the internal organs and increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes and high blood pressure. The water balance in the body can also be monitored, as dehydration is common in older people and can lead to health problems. Regular measurement helps to recognise imbalances in the body at an early stage and derive measures.

A BOA compression massage is a special lymphatic drainage that stimulates the connective tissue using vacuum massage technology. A healthy lymphatic system is particularly important in old age as it helps to cleanse the tissue and protect the body from disease. The massage relieves congestion in the lymphatic vessels, stimulates lymph flow and supports blood circulation in the muscles. It reduces swelling, supports detoxification and strengthens the immune system. It also contributes to general relaxation and an increase in wellbeing.

Interval hypoxia-hyperoxia training (IHHT) is an innovative method in which oxygen-reduced and oxygen-enriched air is inhaled alternately. Mitochondria, our cellular power plants, are stimulated by the alternating air stimuli, which stimulates cell metabolism. IHHT can be particularly beneficial in old age, as it can help to slow down cell ageing, increase mental and physical performance and promote general wellbeing. IHHT also supports the immune system and helps to increase the body's ability to regenerate. Depending on your state of health, it is recommended to use it 2-3 times a week.

In this application, microscopic salt particles are introduced into the air and inhaled while red and near infrared light penetrates deep into the skin. The salt can promote respiratory health by helping to relieve symptoms of asthma, bronchitis, allergies and other respiratory conditions. The red light stimulates collagen production, which can lead to a reduction in wrinkles and an improvement in skin texture. It has anti-inflammatory properties, relieves muscle and joint pain and can accelerate wound healing. It also supports regeneration after training and promotes the healing of muscle injuries. Overall, this application can promote general wellbeing and vitality in old age.
