History

Established in 2005.

Alpine Oxygen provides oxygen concentrator rentals and oxygen therapy for the relief of altitude sickness or acute mountain sickness.

Altitude Sickness or AMS acute mountain sickness is loosely explained by Wikipedia as a pathological effect of high altitude on humans caused by acute exposure to low partial pressure of oxygen at high altitude. It presents as a collection of non specific symptoms, resembling the flu. «Without the sore throat or cough».

It is almost impossible to determine who will be effected, although the elderly, asthma sufferers, smokers, and other individuals with respiratory disorders, such as COPD, Emphysema, etc. are at risk. Anyone of any age regardless of physical condition can be affected by altitude sickness, especially those visiting from sea level. Over half of all vacationers that visit high altitude are at risk. High Altitude Sickness or Acute Mountain Sickness can be mild to severe.
