FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medicine, namely to rehabilitology, and can be applied for non-drug treatment of metabolic syndrome. For this purpose patients are given 10-12 complex procedures with 40-50 minute duration. Procedures include simultaneous impact with dosed systemic body hyperthermia in conditions of dry sauna with gradual temperature increase to 50-80°C with its further decrease to 35°C by the end of procedure, apparatus vibration massage of back and lower extremities, aromatherapy and hypoxic- hyperoxic inhalations through the mask. Each inhalation consists of 5-7 cycles which include period of breathing with hypoxic mixture with 11% O₂, followed by breathing with hyperoxic mixture with 30% O₂, whose duration is selected individually. Inhalations with hypoxic gas mixture are continued until individual minimal value of level of blood saturation with oxygen or individual maximal value of heart beat rate is reached, 1 minute after it hypoxic mixture is replaced with hyperoxic mixture until initial values of parametres are restored.

EFFECT: said mode of complex physiotherapeutic procedures including individual selection of dosage of hypoxic and hyperoxic inhalations duration ensures increase of treatment efficiency due to synergetic action of therapy components.
