Hypoxytherapy in Druskininkai

The method of hypoxytherapy consists in breathing air with a reduced oxygen concentration (mountain air) using a special apparatus. The mechanism of action of hypoxytherapy is based on the ability of regulatory systems of all levels, including the pituitary-adrenal, nervous, endocrine, to restore the constancy of the internal environment of the body against the background of oxygen metabolism normalization. With hypoxytherapy, the volume of circulating blood increases as a result of reflex ejection from the depot, increased blood formation, an increase in the number of red blood cells and hemoglobin; the activity of the antioxidant system, non-specific defense mechanisms is stimulated; smooth muscles relax, blood pressure stabilizes, pronounced sedative and relaxing effects are observed.
