Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT)
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has gone from niche procedure to a fixture of the longevity scene in Zurich within a few years.

Every treatment with provider overview, prices, equipment criteria, “what to look for” checklist, evidence summary and FAQ.
IHHT – intermittent hypoxia-hyperoxia training
IHHT – intermittent hypoxia-hyperoxia training, often marketed as “cell training” or “simulated altitude training” – has spread in Zurich from physiotherapy studios to longevity clinics.
Cryotherapy & cryo chamber
Whole-body cryotherapy is probably the best-known longevity and recovery treatment in Zurich: two to five minutes at −85 to −110 °C in the cryo chamber, followed by the famous endorphin rush.
Red light therapy (photobiomodulation)
Red light therapy – technically photobiomodulation – has quickly become a studio segment of its own in Zurich: from the self-service studio open 365 days a year from 6 am, via mindfulness studios in Seefeld with full-body beds, to the dermatology practice with a light cabin.
IV therapy (vitamin drips, NAD+)
Intravenous infusions – from vitamin C and Myers’ cocktail to NAD+ – are the fastest-growing longevity segment in Zurich: drip spas on Bahnhofstrasse, dermatology and aesthetic practices, longevity clinics and mobile services that bring the drip to your home or hotel.
Body composition: DEXA, InBody, 3D scan & VO2max
Measure instead of guess: body composition and fitness biomarkers are the foundation of every longevity strategy.
Hormone therapy (bioidentical hormones, HRT)
Hormone optimisation has arrived in longevity medicine: bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) in the menopause, testosterone therapy for proven deficiency in men, thyroid and adrenal diagnostics.
Longevity check-up & biomarker diagnostics
The longevity check-up is the pinnacle of preventive medicine in Zurich: instead of the classic check-up with a dozen lab values, longevity clinics measure 70 to several hundred biomarkers, supplemented by epigenetic age, body composition, VO2max, microbiome, genetic and cardiovascular diagnostics – and translate all that into a personal plan for nutrition, training, sleep and treatments.
Infrared cabin & sauna
Infrared cabins are part of the standard repertoire of many longevity centres in Zurich – usually as a single cabin with 30 to 45 minutes of deep heat, often positioned as a “detox” application and frequently combined with the cryo chamber or red light.
Compression therapy & lymphatic drainage (recovery boots)
Device-based compression therapy – known as recovery boots (Normatec, Art of Cryo Flow and others) – is the recovery classic from professional sport: pneumatic cuffs rhythmically pump legs, hips or arms from the bottom up, promote lymphatic and venous return and reduce swelling and muscle soreness.
Hydrogen inhalation (H₂ therapy)
Molecular hydrogen (H₂) is the newcomer in Zurich’s longevity offering: via a nasal cannula you inhale a hydrogen-oxygen mixture for 30 to 60 minutes, or alternatively drink hydrogen-enriched water.
Ozone & plasma therapy
Ozone and plasma therapies form a small but growing niche in Zurich between complementary medicine and high-tech regeneration.
Shockwave therapy (ESWT)
Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) bridges sports medicine and longevity: focused or radial pressure waves stimulate tendons, fascia and muscles, dissolve calcifications and promote tissue regeneration – for heel spurs, tennis elbow, Achilles tendon or shoulder problems that become more frequent with age and curb the joy of movement.
