FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely to therapy, balneotherapy. The method involves prescribing keeping diet No.8, taking radon baths. Individual patient's sensitivity to radon procedures shall be determined at first. That is ensured by measuring blood pressure and pulse rate on an empty stomach before taking a bath. Then the patient takes a bath with mineral water of thermal radon sources at water temperature approximately 38°C and has a rest for 30 minutes. Then blood pressure and pulse rate are measured once more. If observing pulse being unchanged or changed by ±10 beat/min and systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure being changed by ±10 mm Hg, the type I reaction is stated in the patient. If pulse is found to be changed by ±20 beat/min, and systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure has been changed by ±15 mm Hg, the type II reaction is observed. If pulse has been changed by ±30 beat/min, and systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure has been changed by ±20 mm Hg, the type III reaction is observed. The type I reaction requires the following bath-taking scheme: the first procedure - 5 minutes, the second one - 8 minutes, the third one - 10 minutes, all the following procedures - for 15 minutes. The type II reaction requires the following bath-taking scheme: the first procedure - 5 minutes, the second one - 8 minutes, the third one - 10 minutes, all the following procedures - for 12 minutes. The type III reaction requires the following bath-taking scheme: the first procedure - 5 minutes, the second one - 8 minutes, the third one - 10 minutes, all the following procedures - for 10 minutes. Radon bath is taken for two days running followed by the two-day pause. Before noon, two hours after breakfast, the patient moderately drinks radon water 200 ml, swims in the swimming pool for 40 minutes and undergoes a detensor-therapy. During afternoon, two hours after dinner, the patient moderately drinks radon water 200 ml and takes a bath with radon water; then a resonant-acoustic fluctuations procedure follows. The therapeutic course includes 10-15 baths. On the bath-free days, intestinal lavage is prescribed before noon, and hydromassage and body and face thalassotherapy are used during afternoon.

EFFECT: method provides manifested body weight reduction ensured by normalising action of external respiratory function and lipid metabolism.
