open air inhalatorium
The brine flows at a concentration of 7-11% over mountain pine and bundles of blackthorn brushwood, absorbing their essential oils. The brine trickling down enriches the air near the graduation tower with salt, bringing a “breath of sea air” inland. This has a positive effect similar to sea air, for example on pollen allergy sufferers and asthmatics. Inhaling this salty air not only has an expectorant and soothing effect, but also an anti-inflammatory, preventive, and healing effect on chronic bronchitis and sinusitis. This “natural medical miracle” is also credited with providing a certain amount of revitalization for symptoms of fatigue and cardiovascular and vascular diseases. In addition, it conveys a feeling of calm and relaxation. An extraordinarily beneficial effect on the autonomic nervous system can also be observed. For these reasons, many doctors and alternative practitioners recommend a longer stay at the seaside or in health resorts that have made use of the effects of the graduation towers. To achieve optimal results, it is recommended to visit the graduation tower several times a week and inhale for 30 minutes at a time.
