RESUMO
The intention of this Communication is to highlight the main characteristics of the carbonic, carbogaseoses or acidulated waters of the Spanish legislation, as therapeutics agent as well as bottled drinking waters. These waters stimulate the secretion and motility of the digestive apparatus and if they are given by oral way in a correct amount, they have diuretic effects. In balneation they also introduce a vasodilatation, effect due to the penetration of the gas carbonic into the skin and its contact with the vascular walls, but this practice is not common in Spain.

The results of a complex treatment at health resorts of 126 children with Duchenne myopathy and 84 children with spinal amyotrophies at the age of 5-15 years are given. The complexes included carbon-dioxide sulfurated hydrogen baths, mud application (with different localization depending on a form of the disease), fresh baths, oxygenotherapy and therapeutic physical training. The authors revealed good tolerance to procedures and the positive dynamics of the main clinical manifestations of the disease, confirmed by the electrophysiological and biochemical studies. As a result of the treatment it was possible to achieve progressiveness of the disease in all patients at different periods (from 1 month to 1 year). The authors give recommendations for the use of treatment at health resorts as a necessary link in the general chain of rehabilitative measures for children with various forms of progressive muscular dystrophies.

In the Pyatigorsk resort, 226 children from 3-7 years of age with different forms of cerebral paralysis were studied. For therapeutic purposes, besides general health improvement measures, remedial gymnastic and massage, such resort factors as carbon dioxide and sulfurated hydrogen and radon baths of different concentrations and mud procedures were used. As a result of such studies, some indications for referrals of preschool children with cerebral paralysis to balneomud resorts were outlined. Differentiated complexes of resort treatment, depending upon the form and severity of clinical sings were elaborated, as well as the possibility of resort therapy in children with cerebral paralysis, complicated by the intracranial hypertensive syndrome.
