DRUGLESS THERAPY

Nowadays, doctors widely use medicines to treat patients. But in a number of cases medicines may either not be quite effective or produce side effects. That explains a growing interest in methods that will have anti-allergic action.

Our doctors have designed an effective system of completing the cure at sanatoria. It comprises special physical exercises, psychotherapy, dietotherapy, and balneotherapy.

Our research institutes are doing much into health resort treatment and physiotherapy. In Myrgorod, for example, they specialize in using drinkable mineral water, in Odessa they study medicinal muds, etc.

The specialists work out the scientific foundations for health resort treatment, study the mechanisms of physical factors, define indications and contraindications for health resort treatment. Over the last few decades they have greatly expanded their knowledge about man and his diseases. The medical profession's approach to treating illnesses has been changing.

They use microwave-frequency electromagnetic fields to act upon endocrine glands to cure such diseases as rheumatism, female and male infertility, and bronchial asthma. By applying electromagnetic fields to the thyroid gland they can cure ulcer. This kind of treatment is much more effective than drug therapy. While drug therapy produces 50 to 60 per cent successful treatment of an ulcer, this method is nearly 75 per cent effective.
