A curative power of this treatment is obtained by saturating spring water with carbonic anhydride. The gas contained in the water, which deposits on the skin in a form of bubbles, has many effects, among which the most important is the dilatation of arterial and venous capillaries. It displaces blood from central parts of the body to peripheries, which makes the heart beat more economical, improves coronary blood flow and enhances diuresis. It results in drop of blood pressure, whether it is normal or pathologically high, while the heart beat slows down. Dilatation of blood vessels occurs in a carbonic acid bath without a heat factor – you take the bath in cool water, with temperature around 32-35°C. Duration of the bath depends on your general condition and takes around 15-20 min. The number of treatments is determined individually by your doctor.
