Perhaps someone else remembers the mines in the village of Solotvino, which is located in the Tyachiv district of Transcarpathia. It was here that in the distant 70s a branch was opened specializing in the treatment of respiratory diseases. To get there, I had to register on the waiting list for several years: the country was large. In 2008, the Ukrainian Allergy Hospital closed. But a holy place is never empty. In many cities, salt cave treatments have become popular. Ufa is no exception: there is a wide selection of caver rooms.
Environmental issue
There are more than a million inhabitants in Ufa, and many of them work in numerous industrial enterprises of the city. Prior to the era of developed capitalism, in which we live, environmental issues were discussed “above”.
Moreover, organizational conclusions followed in the form of the adoption of the federal law “On the Protection of Atmospheric Air”. And it was even executed, i.e., industrial emissions into the atmosphere were controlled and depended on the direction of the wind and other weather conditions.
But today other times have come: profit is the main motivator for owners and managers of factories.
Therefore, in calm weather (230 such days a year), residents of Ufa can admire a hat of smog. The city, by the way, occupies a well-deserved ninth place among the most gassed cities in Russia.
And such industrial giants as Ufaneftekhim OJSC and Novo-Ufa Oil Refinery OJSC are not going to lower the level of “their achievements”. So it’s quite understandable why the opening of a salt cave in Ufa is becoming a very popular type of business.
Islet of clean air
Someone very smart remembered the healing properties of salt and decided to help citizens in improving their health, and for themselves, accordingly, in making a profit. So there was a type of prevention and treatment of various diseases, popular today, in the salt room. In Ufa, the most common ailments are bronchopulmonary and, as a result of the destroyed ecology, skin. The principle of the influence of salt ions is as follows: they penetrate inward during respiration and through the skin, providing both anti-inflammatory and cosmetic effects at the same time. In the process of exposure to sodium chloride ions, the pH of the dermis is restored, it begins to "breathe", as a result of which the blood microcirculation is enhanced.
