SHOWER ROOM

CHARCOT'S SHOWER

The famous Charcot shower is a hydro massage procedure from a hose with a strong water jet. The «shock» effect of water has a versatile beneficial effect on different body systems. The Charcot shower combines the amazing healing properties of water and the massage effect, so that the patient's condition improves rapidly.

In addition, therapeutic massage helps to relieve nervous tension, it is highly recommended for stress and depression. Patients note that hydro massage is equally good as a therapeutic and cosmetic procedure.

ASCENDING SHOWER

Sessions of an ascending shower restore health to the pelvic organs due to the effect of a water jet on the body, the pressure of which is regulated depending on the disease. Water trickles irritate the skin, which leads to stimulation of nerve endings. The effect is complex: tonic, analgesic, anti-inflammatory. According to the indications of a specialist, a shower is carried out with hot or cold water.

CIRCULATING SHOWER

Unlike Charcot's soul, which is identical in method of treatment, water jets during the session cover the entire surface of the body under pressure, and not just part of it. On special equipment, water is supplied in a circle through horizontally installed pipes. Bursting out of the holes, it massages the body, positively affecting the skin and muscles. The maximum effect of hydro massage is obtained by combining different water temperatures. The positive effect after the sessions is reflected in the nervous system: sleep improves, emotional tension disappears, and well-being normalizes.

BATHROOM

IODINE-BROMINE BATH

Iodine—bromine baths are baths with diluted iodine-bromine salt. The healing effect is determined by the parallel effect of heated liquid and minerals on the body. Evaporating compounds of bromine and iodine ions penetrate the lungs when inhaled and have a neuroleptic and relaxing effect. This is useful for those who suffer from nervous disorders, since getting into the bloodstream, the mineral solution has a calming effect on the condition of the body, which contributes to recovery.

PEARL BATH

Pearl bath is a water massage using water and air, which got its name due to the small bubbles of water rising up from the bottom of the bath. Massaging the patient's body, small "pearls" filled with oxygen give lightness in the body and a sense of peace during the procedure, and thanks to the pleasant sensations during the hydro massage, after each session, there is an improvement in well-being. Pearl baths are not only a way to relieve stress and tension, but also an excellent method of preventing many diseases.

To enhance the healing effect, patients can be prescribed baths with a fragrant filler.

VORTEX BATH

In vortex baths, continuous streams from the water are saturated with air, creating "vortices" that give a great massage effect, enhanced by alternating temperature conditions. The alternating effect of warm and cool streams of water on the body contributes to the development of microcirculation of blood flow in tissues. For patients who are contraindicated in shared baths, local exposure procedures are prescribed.

AROMATIC BATHS

UNDERWATER MASSAGE
