When the lungs run out of air: Radonthermalstollen proven therapy for asthmatics

04/18/2012

Shortness of breath, coughing, wheezing or chest tightness are the typical symptoms of asthma. Often the quality of life suffers and those affected live in constant fear of the next attack. Conventional treatments are mostly medicinal, to relieve discomfort and to control seizures. Many asthmatics do not dare to leave their home without their spray and often put up with not inconsiderable side effects in order to breathe freely again. However, there is a natural alternative that many do not even know. Radon therapy reduces the consumption of medication and the seizure frequency according to experience mostly clear and long-lasting.

„Stollen therapies have been a proven treatment for asthma for about 100 years“, reports Bertram Hölzl, radon expert and medical director of the Gasteiner Heilstollen. „However, in the Radonthermalstollen patients also benefit from the positive reactions by the intake of radon.“ This noble gas, which is present in the earth's crust, has been shown to have an immune-stabilizing and anti-inflammatory effect and thus addresses the levels that physicians regard as causes of chronic respiratory disease. In combination with the prevailing in Radonthermalstollen climate of high humidity and temperatures above 37.5 degrees, the effect of radon reinforced. Experts speak of this so-called hyperthermia effect, which triggers a kind of desired therapeutic fever in the body, in addition to an important for those affected, anticonvulsant effect. In addition, 70 to 100 percent moisture saturated air soothes the bronchial mucosa. The particularly clean breathing air - free from dust, pollen and allergens - which is typical of tunnels also contributes to respiratory recovery. „After radon therapy, patients report a sustained improvement in symptoms and significantly lower cortisone demand,“ knows Dr. hölzl. „Seizures and infections occur much less frequently.“ (Pm)
