This treatment is using water with an increased carbon dioxide content is a procedure in which the body absorbs this gas through the skin and respiratory system.
The treatment is achieved by saturating spring water with carbonic acid anhydride. Carbonic acid anhydride contained in water is released on the skin in the form of gas bubbles, causing many changes, the most important of which is the dilation of capillaries, arteries and veins. This shifts blood from the central parts of the body to the periphery, making the heart work more economically, coronary flow increases and diuresis intensifies. As a result, blood pressure decreases, both normal and elevated due to the disease, and the heart rate slows down.
The dilation of blood vessels takes place in a carbonic acid bath without the use of a thermal factor, because the bath takes place in cool water at a temperature of about 32-35°C.
The bathing time depends on the general condition and ranges from 15-20 minutes,
The number of treatments is determined individually by the attending physician.
