Apparatus and method for implementing hydro-acoustic therapy for the lungs |
摘要 |
The present invention involves an apparatus for implementing hydro-acoustic therapy for the lungs on a patient and a method for the hydro-acoustic therapy (HAT) for the lungs. The HAT apparatus comprises a chamber filled with a fluid, particularly water. The HAT apparatus also has an acoustic generator for generating low frequency acoustic waves in the fluid. A patient is positioned in the chamber and partially submersed in the fluid for treatment. In another aspect, a method for implementing hydro-acoustic therapy for the lungs includes the step of placing a person in the apparatus described above such that a body of the person is immersed in said fluid. Then, introducing acoustic vibrations into the fluid. The vibrations, if properly tuned, cause the mobilization of respiratory secretions in the person.
