Results of our studies permit reaching the conclusion that oral intake of the mineral water Naftusya as the leading factor with an additional prescription of the course of the hyperbaric oxygenation procedures promote enhancement of functional reserves, stabilize free-radical processes and bodily system of antioxidant defence, favour stabilization of cell membranes, initiate decorporative action, diminish depression of immunity and supply oxygen to those enzymic systems whose activity has been adversely affected by hypoxia.

Clinical studies were made in 117 patients with chronic pyelonephritis at the stage of sanatorium-and-health-resort treatment using hyperbaric oxygenation. Supplementing the "traditional" naftusya-based balneotherapy with hyperbaric oxygenation has been shown to potentiate the effect of the water on the course of the illness, functional condition of the urinary organs, to strengthen the potential of those systems res responsible for homeostasis of the peroxide oxygenation of lipids in the body, which fact validates a high efficiency of their combined use.

The paper presents a clinical material on effects of health-resort factors, hyperbaric oxygenation, and psychotherapeutic correction on the gonadal function in patients having sexual problems. The multimodality approach permitted not only a significant alleviation of pathological symptomatology on the part of the autonomic nervous system, pain syndrome, improving the consistency and function of the prostate, but also had a beneficial effect on the copulative sphere, indices for microscopy of the prostatic secretum, spermatogenesis, and fertility of the ejaculate.
