Treatment Character:

The therapeutic effect is antihypertensive, cardiotonic, anti-inflammatory, and stimulates metabolism.

Treatment Process:

The client lays in the tub with mineral water, keeping their head above the water level to prevent inhalation of carbon dioxide, which accumulates at the water surface.

The body is covered with a multitude of gas bubbles; it is necessary to remain calm so they can settle on the skin. The client rests quietly in the tub with mineral water for about 20 minutes, after which the spa attendant wraps them in a dry wrap for 10 minutes on a bed next to the tub.
