    Abstract:
    Bath therapy was assigned to 300 patients with primary hypothyroidism, chronic venous insufficiency of the legs, neurologic symptoms of lumbar osteochondrosis. Fresh, siliceous, siliceous carbon-dioxide and carbon-dioxide waters were tested comparatively. It is reported that siliceous baths with threshold silicon compounds concentration 50 mg/l had the effect similar to that of fresh-water baths. Indications have been specified for introduction of carbon dioxide and siliceous carbon dioxide baths in the diseases studied.
