Dry Carbon Dioxide Bath is a physiotherapy treatment performed in a specialized chamber, where the body is exposed to a carbon dioxide-rich environment. During the procedure, the patient is treated with warmed, humidified carbon dioxide gas (CO₂) at a carefully controlled concentration. The therapeutic effects are delivered through the skin while avoiding direct exposure of the respiratory system, helping to prevent irritation of the mucous membranes.
Indications for Use
Dry Carbon Dioxide Bath Therapy may be recommended as part of a comprehensive treatment or rehabilitation program for the following conditions:
- Cardiovascular disorders, including hypertension and coronary artery disease.
- Metabolic disorders, such as obesity and diabetes mellitus.
- Chronic respiratory conditions, including bronchial asthma and chronic bronchitis.
- Certain skin conditions, including psoriasis and eczema.
- Neurological and stress-related conditions, such as neuroses and sleep disturbances.
- Recovery and rehabilitation following injuries or surgical procedures.
Treatment Course
A typical session lasts between 10 and 20 minutes. A standard treatment course usually consists of 8–12 sessions, performed daily or every other day, depending on the patient's condition and the physician's recommendations.
Key Benefits of the Procedure

The procedure may help reduce muscle tension, promote relaxation, lower stress levels, and contribute to better sleep quality. - Enhanced Skin Appearance
Regular treatments can help improve skin tone, softness, and hydration, contributing to a healthier-looking complexion. - Support for the Immune System
