The Dead Sea – a perfect for treatment of asthma
The Dead Sea offers several unique treatments for respiratory problems. People with asthma may consider a trip to the Dead Sea (Jordan or Israel). The water elevation is the lowest in the world, and the air is almost entirely free from pollen due to reduced vegetation.
The extremely high concentration of multiple minerals makes the Dead Sea's atmosphere the perfect remedy for various respiratory diseases. Breathing by the Dead Sea is particularly easy due to the high level of oxygen in the air. A stay at the Dead Sea, combined with the appropriate treatments, such as inhalation or breathing exercises can bring substantial positive effects for people suffering from asthma and other chronic respiratory diseases.
Exotic cures
Ayurveda, traditional Indian medicine, is another solution for those suffering from respiratory diseases. Authentic ayurveda is available in India, Sri Lanka, Kerala and Nepal, as well as in several SpaDreams resorts in Europe.
