"Dry" carbon dioxide baths are a treatment method in which carbon dioxide, artificially prepared for medical purposes, acts on the patient's body, which is in a closed (except for the head) bag. During "dry" baths, the load on the body is felt much less, compared to standard baths (there is no temperature component and hydrostatic load). A "dry" carbon dioxide bath is taken in a special polyethylene bag filled with carbon dioxide (CO2). Hence other names for this procedure - gas envelope or gas wrapping.

Mechanism of action:

Today, scientists have thoroughly studied the effect of carbon dioxide on the human body. In the human body, the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between tissues occurs according to the principle of barter. A healthy body gives off carbon dioxide from its tissues and receives oxygen. If, due to various diseases, there is not enough carbon dioxide in the tissues, then oxygen cannot be absorbed in the proper amount. This leads to the development of hypoxia and deterioration of the general condition. "Dry" carbon dioxide baths are designed to prevent this.

CO2 gas: penetrating the body through the skin, causes an increase in vasoactive substances in it, which have a dilating effect on the capillaries. The main physiological reaction of the human body to carbon dioxide is the expansion of all vessels and capillaries, even those that are constantly in a spasmodic state, which leads to: improved blood flow, a decrease in the frequency of cardiovascular contractions, an increase in stroke volume and cardiac output, and a simultaneous increase in the oxygen content in the blood.

This leads to:

  • Photo without descriptionExtraordinary supply of the skin, muscles and all organs of the body, glands and brain with blood enriched with oxygen and other vital elements.
  • Breathing becomes deeper and less frequent. Gas exchange is activated, O2 utilization is increased. Metabolic processes are accelerated. The body's defenses are increased.
  • The reserve capabilities of the cardiovascular and nervous systems are improved.
  • The lymphatic system is activated, which is responsible for the effective removal of toxic toxins from the body.
  • A "dry" carbon dioxide bath also helps people suffering from varicose veins and insufficient arterial blood flow to the lower extremities.
  • The beneficial effect of carbon dioxide on the elasticity and firmness of the skin will be appreciated, especially by women.
  • This is a very effective assistant in the fight against cellulite and obesity.
  • This procedure is also useful for mental disorders (neurasthenia, sexual neurosis, vegetative neurosis).
  • Increased blood supply to the brain is a magic elixir for those suffering from fatigue, stress and insomnia.
  • Carbon dioxide baths reduce high blood pressure. In addition, they can partially improve memory and concentration.
