    Abstract:
    100 patients with chronic obstructive bronchitis were examined and treated in the therapeutic department of rehabilitation center. Combined treatment including low-energy laser radiation produced good results. Laser therapy has improved bronchial permeability, sensitivity of bronchial beta 2-receptors to sympathomimetics. As a result, their intake was reduced or discontinued. Laser radiation combined well with other non-pharmacological modalities.
