Soak up the soothing atmosphere at Kurotel
Oxygen Therapy aids patients with supplying enough oxygen to their bloodstream which speeds up the healing process. Normally, damaged tissues heal themselves over time due to a consistent supply of blood to the healing area, however sometimes the blood vessels lose the ability to keep that flow of blood going to the healing area which slows the recovery down. Oxygen therapy increases the amount of oxygen in the bloodstream, which therefore aids with the healing process. This therapy would profoundly aid recovering cancer patients on a wellness holiday, as it actively speeds up the process of recovery, ensuring they can only go from strength to strength.
