CARBON DIOXIDE GAS MIST PRESSURE BATH METHOD AND CARBON DIOXIDE GAS MIST PRESSURE BATH APPARATUS FOR PREVENTING, IMPROVING AND TREATING MYOCARDIAL INFARCTIONS
Carbon dioxide is contacted to a skin and mucous membrane of a living organism directly or through clothing, thereby to improve or promote circulation of the blood in a myocardial region, and furthermore to prevent, improve or cure myocardial infarction. The following steps (a) to (d) are continued at least once per day for four weeks, that is, a step (a) of producing a carbon dioxide gas mist by pulverizing and dissolving carbon dioxide gas into a liquid, and forming this liquid into a mist a step (b) of spraying the carbon dioxide gas mist into a carbon dioxide gas mist-enclosing means for enclosing the living organism in an air tight state, a step (c) of expelling gas existing in the carbon dioxide gas mist- enclosing means into the outside, if necessary in parallel with the step (b), in order to maintain the pressure of gas within the carbon dioxide gas mist-enclosing means at or above a prescribed value being higher than the atmospheric pressure, and a step (d) of continuing such a step of supplying, for at least 20 minutes, the carbon dioxide mist into the carbon dioxide gas mist-enclosing means.
