CIMA Hyperbaric Center


Cusco is often breathtaking, in more ways than one. Even the most athletic are not immune to high altitude sickness, if they are not accustomed to high up climates. It is a condition that can affect people at starting at 2,400 meters (8,000 feet) over sea level. Cusco is 3,536 meters (11,600 feet). Symptoms like dizziness and fatigue can develop into high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) or high altitude cerebral edema (HACE). The CIMA Hyperbaric Center has a hyperbaric chamber and has become one of the most respected and referred clinics in Cusco for treating high altitude sickness. They also provide any and all needed vaccinations and medical assistance relating to outdoor activities.

Traveler Reviews of CIMA Hyperbaric Center

Great Medical Care

My sister and I got really bad altitude sickness about two weeks ago when we traveled to Cusco. Our hotel, Hotel Libertador, had to call medical care for us and we were taken to the CIMA clinic. We received excellent care, the place was spotless and the staff was great!! We got better treatment then at some US hospitals. Highly, highly recommend!!!!
