From p.150 of Gurps Thauamtology

"In addition, if the ritual works, the patient gets six rolls per day to recover lost HP wile the effects last and these are at HT+1."

Because there is a roll to recover lost HP, the VRH increase does apply to it and I do not consider it rules-lawyerly to apply it as the rules instruct you to do.
