CO2 Therapy. At Home. No Appointment.

Your body already knows how to recover. It just needs more oxygen where it hurts.

Your joints ache the day after the workout. The ice bath is not enough. The massage gun is not enough. Here is what actually moves oxygen into tired tissue: CO2. Applied to your skin. Twenty minutes. At home.

Start where it fits. The paste is $99. The Flex Kit is the full system.

30-day guarantee. Don't love it? Send it back.

The Mechanism

Your blood is already full of oxygen. CO2 tells your cells to take it.

Most recovery tools try to push more oxygen into your body. CO2 therapy works differently. It helps the oxygen you already have reach the tissue that needs it.

Here is how it works. CO2 touches your skin. Your blood vessels open. Hemoglobin — the protein that carries oxygen in your blood — lets that oxygen go. Your muscles, joints, and skin get what they need. This is called the Bohr Effect. Christian Bohr described it in 1904. Every med school still teaches it. CO2 therapy is how we signal the same mechanism on purpose.

Two Ways In

Two products. One mechanism.

One fits in a drawer. One fills your living room. Both use the Bohr Effect.

The Research

Not a new idea. A well-studied one.

11 peer-reviewed studies on transcutaneous CO2. The Bohr Effect dates back to 1904. Japanese and European clinics have used CO2 therapy for decades. Pro athletes in hockey, football, and Ironman use AEIR in their weekly rotation.

A word from our founder

PLACEHOLDER_ROSS_PORTRAIT

"Your blood is already full of oxygen. The question is whether it's getting to your cells."

Ross Schilling is a chiropractor with a biology degree. He spent years watching patients recover faster when oxygen reached the tissue that needed it. He couldn't see every patient. So he built a product that does the teaching for him. This is what he says when a new athlete walks into his clinic.

Common questions.

CO2 — carbon dioxide — is absorbed through the skin from either a suit-based session or a topical paste. Once absorbed, it raises local tissue CO2. That triggers the Bohr Effect — hemoglobin releases the oxygen it's carrying into the surrounding tissue. More oxygen reaches muscle, joint, and skin cells. That's the mechanism.
Yes. CO2 therapy has been used in Japanese and European clinics for decades. 11 peer-reviewed studies back the mechanism and the safety data. AEIR products are made for at-home use. No prescription. Safe for kids. Safe during pregnancy.
Hyperbaric pressurizes oxygen into already-saturated blood. AEIR improves how that oxygen gets delivered to tissue. Different mechanism, more accessible cost, and for most recovery use cases, a better fit. Full breakdown at vs-hyperbaric.
Most people start with the paste. It's $99 for five tubes, no equipment, and it uses the same Bohr Effect as the suit. If you want full-body sessions every day, the Flex Kit is the commitment tier.
Paste: 3 times a week on the area you want to treat. Suit: 20 to 30 minutes per session, up to every day. The more often you use it, the more your body learns the signal.
Yes. In-person sessions at our Long Lake, Minnesota facility are $74.99 each, and session costs credit back toward a product purchase within 60 days.

Recovery doesn't have to cost you a day.
