Abstract :
<p> <span style="text-align: justify;">Speleotherapy and halotherapy are relatively old therapeutic methods sometimes recommended for chronic obstructive disorders. </span><span style="text-align: justify; color: rgb(24, 24, 24);">As part of reahabilitation programs, the need to introduce a natural approach on patient already receiving classical therapy seems to improve their clinical status as well as their quality of life. Buteyko eathing technique has known benefits in pulmonary rehabilitation and it is used to improve respiration and control chronic respiratory symptoms as part of respiratory exercising. In this short study we assessed the improvement of the control pause – a parameter used in Buteyko eathing exercising on patients receiving halotherapy for a day. The results showed a small improvement in their control pause, meaning that halotherapy, combined with Buteyko eathing technique may be a solution to enhance the respiratory status of chronic respiratory patients.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph"><span style="mso-ascii-font-family:Camia;mso-hansi-font-family:Camia;mso-bidi-font-family: Times;color:#181818;mso-ansi-language:EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
