For many travelers, altitude sickness is one of the biggest concerns when visiting Cusco. At 3,400 meters above sea level, the body can be hit hard—especially if you’ve come from sea level or taken an overnight flight or long bus journey.
What makes it more unpredictable is that altitude sickness doesn’t discriminate. Age, fitness level, race, or body type provide no reliable clues as to who will suffer and who won’t. We’ve seen marathon runners experience symptoms while others who never exercise adjust with ease.
Unfortunately, this unpredictability means that many people’s bucket list adventures—treks, day trips, or even Machu Picchu itself—are compromised. From debilitating headaches and insomnia to exhaustion and nausea, altitude can quickly turn a dream vacation into a struggle.
The Real Cost of Not Preparing for Altitude
For some, symptoms are mild and pass within a day or two. But for others, it can result in:
Missed treks or tours
Emergency visits to clinics or hospitals
Expensive medical bills
Wasted time and energy recovering indoors instead of exploring
At ReEnergize Cusco, we’ve heard this story again and again over the past seven years. Hundreds of travelers have shared their disappointment with us, describing how their treks were ruined by headaches, lack of sleep, shortness of breath, and sheer fatigue.
So We Built a Solution: The Altitude Combo
That’s why we made altitude adaptation one of the core pillars of our business. We knew there had to be a better way—a natural, holistic solution that didn’t involve IVs or hospital visits.
After years of research and experience, we developed the Altitude Combo: a thoughtfully designed wellness package that targets the symptoms of altitude sickness and helps your body recover quickly in a calm, supportive environment.
What’s Included in the Altitude Combo?
✅ 60-minute Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Session
Gently pressurized with enhanced oxygen absorption to speed up altitude adaptation, reduce inflammation, and improve energy.
✅ 60-minute Therapeutic Massage
Targeted bodywork to relieve tension, improve circulation, and ease altitude-related discomfort like headaches and neck/shoulder tightness.
This combination helps reset both body and mind—without medication, in a setting that’s warm, welcoming, and built for travelers like you.
Why Our Clients Love It
Most clients report feeling:
More energetic and clear-headed after one session
Less short of breath during daily activities or hikes
Better sleep and reduced headaches
Recharged and ready to explore Cusco instead of resting in a hotel room
Don’t Let Altitude Steal Your Experience
If you’re visiting Cusco—or have just arrived and are feeling the effects of the elevation—don’t wait for symptoms to get worse.
Try our Altitude Combo and give your body the oxygen, care, and attention it needs to make the most of your time in Peru.
