The Science Behind the Ultra Human Protocol: A Revolution in Health & Recovery

The Ultra Human Protocol is not just another wellness trend – it’s a science-backed, evidence-based approach to optimising recovery, reducing inflammation, and enhancing overall performance. By combining PowerPlate Whole-Body Vibration, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), and NovoTHOR Red Light Therapy, we have created a system that amplifies cellular health, speeds healing, and promotes longevity.


But why does this combination work so well? Let’s break down the science behind each therapy and how they work together for maximum results.

Step 1: PowerPlate – Whole-Body Vibration Therapy

Whole-Body Vibration (WBV) stimulates the muscles and circulation in ways that traditional movement cannot. Research shows that this therapy can significantly enhance blood flow, oxygen delivery, and reduce inflammation.

Here’s how:

  • Improves Circulation & Oxygenation – WBV increases nitric oxide production, which dilates blood vessels and enhances oxygen delivery to the muscles and tissues (Lohman et al., 2007).
  • Reduces Inflammation – Studies show a reduction in key inflammatory markers like IL-6 and TNF-α, which are linked to chronic inflammation and pain (Lau et al., 2011).
  • Supports Muscle Recovery – WBV enhances neuromuscular activation, reducing muscle soreness and increasing flexibility post-exercise (Cardinale & Wakeling, 2005).
  • Boosts Lymphatic Drainage – Vibrations stimulate the lymphatic system, helping the body flush out toxins and reduce swelling (Bosco et al., 1999).

Why It Matters

By using PowerPlate as the first step, we prime the body by increasing circulation and detoxification, setting the stage for better oxygen absorption in the HBOT chamber.

Step 2: Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) – The Power of Oxygen

Imagine flooding your cells with pure oxygen, accelerating their ability to heal and regenerate. That’s exactly what happens in Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT).

  • Lowers Systemic Inflammation – HBOT has been clinically shown to reduce C-reactive protein (CRP), TNF-α, and IL-6, which are all key markers of chronic inflammation (Thom, 2009).
  • Stimulates Tissue Healing & Regeneration – HBOT triggers the release of stem cells and boosts collagen production, essential for recovery from injury or surgery (Balestra et al., 2006).
  • Enhances Cognitive Function – Studies show that HBOT increases brain oxygenation, leading to improved memory, mental clarity, and neuroprotection (Hadanny & Efrati, 2020).
  • Speeds Up Recovery & Reduces Fatigue – HBOT flushes out lactic acid, a byproduct of intense exercise, helping the muscles recover faster (Borromeo et al., 2017).

Why It Matters

Once the body has been prepped with PowerPlate, HBOT maximises oxygen uptake, ensuring that every cell gets the oxygen it needs to function at its peak. This step is essential for reducing inflammation and accelerating repair.

Step 3: NovoTHOR Red Light Therapy – The Energy Boost

Light is more powerful than we realise. Red and near-infrared light therapy (PBM – Photobiomodulation) has been shown to enhance mitochondrial function, which is the key to cellular energy and repair.

  • Boosts ATP Production – PBM stimulates cytochrome c oxidase, which supercharges mitochondrial energy production, increasing ATP (the body’s energy currency) (Hamblin, 2016).
  • Reduces Pain & Inflammation – Studies show red light therapy significantly lowers oxidative stress and suppresses pro-inflammatory cytokines (Gifford et al., 2018).
  • Accelerates Muscle Recovery & Healing – Red light stimulates collagen production, speeding up wound healing and reducing muscle soreness after exercise (Leal-Junior et al., 2009).
  • Enhances Skin & Anti-Aging Effects – PBM has been shown to boost collagen synthesis, reducing wrinkles and improving overall skin health (Avci et al., 2013).

Why It Matters

After PowerPlate has increased circulation and HBOT has delivered oxygen, NovoTHOR ensures the oxygen is efficiently converted into cellular energy. This final step locks in the benefits, making sure the body has everything it needs for recovery and regeneration.

Why This Combination is a Game-Changer

Each of these therapies is powerful on its own, but together, they create a synergistic effect that enhances each other’s benefits.

  1. PowerPlate primes the body – It increases blood flow, improves detoxification, and prepares cells for oxygen absorption.
  2. HBOT floods tissues with oxygen – It reduces inflammation and enhances cellular repair.
  3. Red Light Therapy amplifies energy production – It optimises mitochondrial function and accelerates recovery.

By stacking these therapies in this specific order, we provide maximum efficiency for health, recovery, and longevity.

How Many Sessions Do You Need?

  • 6-Week Protocol (3 Sessions Per Week, 18 Total) – This is the recommended program for optimal inflammation reduction, performance enhancement, and recovery.
  • Maintenance Sessions (1-2x per Week) – Ideal for ongoing wellness and preventing chronic conditions.

Most clients notice benefits after just a few sessions, but long-term cellular improvements occur over 6–12 weeks.

Final Thoughts: Elevate Your Health with Science

The Ultra Human Protocol is more than a wellness routine – it’s a scientifically-backed system for longevity, recovery, and peak performance. Whether you’re an athlete looking to recover faster, a professional seeking more energy, or someone who wants to age gracefully, this protocol gives your body the tools it needs to thrive.
