How is treatment carried out in Konstantinovy Lazne
Introductory examination by a doctor
After checking into the spa hotel, the patient undergoes a general examination by a doctor, during which an individual course of treatment and health procedures is prescribed. Inspection usually includes an electrocardiographic examination. Guests who come after myocardial infarction also undergo an ECG with a load on a special exercise bike. It is recommended that you bring fresh findings from your cardiologist (a spa card is not required), so as not to waste time on additional examinations of the cardiovascular system.
A feature of the resort Konstantinovy Lazne resort is round-the-clock monitoring (if necessary) of a cardiologist.

How to treat cardiovascular system in Konstantinovy Lazne
The main methods of treatment of the cardiovascular system are:
Carbon bath – it is the main procedure at the resort, during the passage of which through the skin into the body penetrates up to 30 ml of carbon dioxide per minute. It contributes to the expansion of blood vessels, improve blood circulation, the work of the heart muscle, stabilize the heart rhythm, lower blood pressure. Treatment with carbon dioxide baths also has a general strengthening effect on the body.
However, carbon dioxide baths are undesirable for patients with serious circulatory disorders, after recent myocardial infarction, in the presence of blood clots in blood vessels or hypertensive crises. Carbon baths are absolutely contraindicated in case of prolonged attacks of angina pectoris and significant atherosclerosis of cerebral and coronary vessels.
Dry carbon baths, which are recognized as one of the most effective treatments for cardiological diseases in resorts. The effect of this procedure is similar to the classic aqueous carbon dioxide bath - it expands blood vessels and capillaries, activates the flow of oxygen into the blood, metabolic functions, reduces blood viscosity. Dry carbonic baths are especially indicated for patients who are undesirable to take baths due to the hydrostatic pressure of warm water on their bodies.
Physiotherapy exercises, including training ergometry and wellness treatments in the pool. Exercise therapy strengthens the heart muscle, increases its contractility, activates blood circulation. There is a decrease in cholesterol in the blood, which reduces the risk of blood clots. Nordic (Scandinavian) walking is practiced, which is also part of a health-improving course, helping to stabilize cardiac activity.
Effective treatments are also oxygen therapy (increased oxygen in tissues eliminates arrhythmia), breathing exercises (stabilizes the work of the heart, has a strengthening effect on the heart muscle and blood vessels).
As recent studies by European experts have shown, breathing exercises are very useful for the cardiovascular system, as the correct breathing rhythm allows you to retain carbon dioxide in the body, which is involved in many important physiological processes (blood circulation, stable heart function, carbohydrate and fat metabolism, nervous processes).
The optimal natural and climatic factors of the Konstantinovy Lazne resort (flat terrain and temperate climate) create optimal conditions for the effective treatment of the cardiovascular system.
