Paraffin Hand Treatment

This therapeutic procedure focuses on regenerating and soothing the skin of the hands. During the treatment, the hands are immersed in melted paraffin made from natural wax. The paraffin is heated to a pleasant temperature and forms a thin layer on the skin.

When the hands are dipped into the paraffin, heat is transferred to the skin and the pores open. This helps improve blood circulation, relax muscles, and increase skin hydration. Paraffin also has healing properties that help relieve dryness, inflammation, irritation, and pain in the hands. When the paraffin is removed, dead skin cells are exfoliated, leaving the skin nourished, soft, and rejuvenated.

The paraffin hand treatment is a pleasant experience that offers numerous benefits for the skin of the hands. It is suitable for anyone suffering from dry skin, joint pain, arthritis, or simply wanting to relax and improve the appearance of their hands. The procedure is usually complemented by a short massage or wraps that further enhance its effects.

Inhalation

Inhalation is a therapeutic procedure used to treat respiratory tract and lung diseases. This method involves inhaling medications, solutions, or clean air through the respiratory passages. Inhalation can be performed using inhalers, nebulizers, or steam devices that disperse medications or solutions into fine particles suitable for inhalation.

During inhalation, patients breathe in medicinal substances or humidified air that directly target the affected areas of the respiratory system. This results in a faster and more direct effect on the target area, which is often essential for conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), respiratory inflammations, or allergies. Inhalation helps loosen mucus, moisturize the mucous membranes, dilate the bronchi, and improve airway patency, thereby reducing symptoms and enhancing breathing.

The inhalation procedure is a safe and effective therapeutic method that provides quick and direct relief for respiratory problems.

Oxygen Therapy

Oxygen therapy (Sauerstofftherapie) involves the intake of oxygen through a double nasal cannula with a 30% oxygen concentration in the air, compared to the usual 16% in the atmosphere. This 30-minute procedure, performed daily for 18 consecutive days, significantly improves oxygen saturation (uptake and return in secondary zones), thereby enhancing the functioning of all organs and slowing the aging process.

Patients often welcome this treatment, reporting a disappearance of fatigue and a renewed feeling of freshness.

Inhalation of humidified oxygen via a nasal cannula is carried out for half an hour while seated in a relaxation room. The therapy is complemented by multivitamin intake.

The method of oxygen therapy has been used in medicine for many years. It is known that breathing oxygen at a higher concentration than that found in the air increases the oxygen concentration in the blood plasma. The increase in the partial pressure of oxygen in the blood leads to improved blood flow in capillaries, delivering more oxygen to tissues.

Some issues, such as memory decline, delayed reactions, impaired vision and hearing, migraines, and premature aging, are often caused by insufficient blood supply to the body. Increasing oxygen levels in tissues boosts immunity, enhances growth and regeneration.

Oxygen therapy helps prevent certain diseases, improves healing capacity, enhances physical and mental abilities, improves microcirculation, and enhances the overall condition of the skin.

Oxygen is the driving force of life. Since it cannot be stored in the body, a regular supply must be ensured. This is done through breathing: oxygen enters the blood via the lungs and circulatory system to organs throughout the body. It then passes through capillaries into cells, where energy production processes take place. Without sufficient oxygen, the body lacks energy. We can ensure an intensive oxygen supply to capillaries by applying highly concentrated oxygen directly to the skin using special applicators.

Electrotherapy

Electrotherapy is a therapeutic procedure that uses electrical impulses or currents to treat various health issues and support tissue healing.

Dry Carbon Dioxide Bath

This treatment involves placing the body (excluding the head) into a special bag filled with carbon dioxide. The healing effect is stimulated by increasing the carbon dioxide content in the skin. The primary physiological response is vasodilation extending to the capillaries, accompanied by improved oxygen saturation of the blood.

As a result, blood circulation improves in the skin, muscles, all body organs, and glands. The brain is supplied with oxygen-rich blood, which helps strengthen the body, enhance immunity, and promote the body’s healing functions.

This treatment is highly effective and serves as a versatile preventive system for regeneration and recovery, combined with therapeutic effects.

Carbonated Bath

The carbonated bath is a special micro-massage bath in which the skin and body are exposed to fine bubbles of carbon dioxide at a comfortable temperature of around 34 °C. Carbon dioxide is absorbed through the skin, improving blood circulation and having a beneficial effect on the heart and kidneys. This process promotes vasodilation, meaning the expansion of arterial vessels, which helps lower blood pressure and improve cardiovascular system function.

The carbonated bath has calming effects and is especially suitable for treating mild forms of high blood pressure, circulatory disorders in the upper and lower limbs, and other cardiovascular problems.

The duration of the bath is approximately 15 minutes. After the procedure, the patient is wrapped in a warm covering, contributing to a pleasant sensation of blood flow throughout the body without overheating. Therefore, the carbonated bath is also ideal for people with circulatory system diseases, degenerative and inflammatory conditions of the spine or joints.

Besides physical benefits, this treatment also has significant anti-stress effects.

Due to its physical demands, the carbonated bath is not recommended to be combined with other exhausting or hot procedures.

Hydroxeur

Hydroxeur is a special underwater massage that uses programmed water jets and gentle nozzles enriched with air or oxygen. These nozzles are specifically targeted at acupuncture zones corresponding to various parts of the spine and both upper and lower limbs.

Pneumopuncture

Pneumopuncture is a therapeutic procedure commonly performed in spa facilities for therapeutic purposes. It is a non-invasive method in which precisely dosed air or carbon dioxide is introduced into the patient’s body. This procedure is used to treat various respiratory diseases, lung conditions, and other health problems.

During pneumopuncture, the patient lies on a special couch that allows access to certain areas of the body. Then, air or carbon dioxide is introduced into the patient’s body using a thin needle or catheter. The gas is controlled with precisely set pressure and the skill of the medical staff, who determine the exact dose and duration of the procedure.

Pneumopuncture offers many therapeutic benefits. It primarily improves breathing and blood circulation in the lung tissue. This increases lung function and helps in the treatment of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other respiratory illnesses. The procedure also supports the removal of mucus from the lungs, reducing the risk of infections and improving overall lung capacity. Pneumopuncture is often combined with other therapeutic methods such as medication inhalation or physiotherapy to achieve the best results for the patient.

Pneumopuncture is a popular spa procedure used in the treatment of various respiratory diseases. It is a safe and non-invasive method that helps improve breathing and lung function. If you are interested in pneumopuncture, it is important to consult a specialist who can provide detailed information about this procedure and assess whether it is suitable for your specific case.
