Inhalation: Types and Benefits
Inhalation is used in the treatment of the upper and lower respiratory tract diseases. In the course of the procedure, the smallest particles of special solutions settle in the respiratory tract and spread faster with the blood flow. This allows not only to clean the bronchi and lungs, but also to quickly deliver the necessary substances to the body.
Alkaline inhalation is the most popular type. This is the atomization of a therapeutic solution with mineral water from the Drilled No. 1 Yessentuki deposit. It has an antibacterial effect, helps thinning mucus and removes it from the bronchi.
There are different kinds of herbal inhalation: chamomile, sage, calendula and pectorales species. They have anti-inflammatory and expectorant effects, relieving swelling of the mucosa.
Inhalation is usually prescribed in case of acute and chronic diseases of the upper respiratory tract: bronchitis, laryngitis, pharyngitis, tonsillitis, rhinitis and others.
Inhaler treatment is an important part of the Sanatorium treatment program. In combination with other procedures, it helps to achieve rapid and durable recovery of the body.
