Mahold inhaler (aroma inhaler).

The aroma inhaler is simple in design and circulation, safe and intended for the prevention and treatment at home of diseases of the upper respiratory tract, cardiovascular, nervous, endocrine and immune systems of the body, harmonizing the psycho-emotional state of a person, as well as for aromatizing rooms. Prevention and treatment are carried out by natural inhalation of aromas of essential oils or medicinal mixtures (sprayable) through the mouth or nose at the desired temperature. The depth of penetration of the molecules of the therapeutic mixture into the respiratory tract depends on the power of the inhalation. The strength of respiratory movements can be adjusted during inhalation. Essential oils and medicinal mixtures are determined by the doctor depending on the disease, taking into account individual contraindications.

Due to its compactness, lightness and independence from external energy sources, AI can be used at home, on the road, at work, while traveling. During the inhalation procedure, no vapor is formed, which burns the skin of the face and mucous membrane of the eyes.

Preparation of AI for inhalation. Before use, rinse the inhaler with hot water. If the inhaler was previously used by another user, it should be boiled for 3-5 minutes, dried and allowed to cool. Through the pipe, pour 1-2 ml of the medicinal mixture into the inhaler, its level should be lower than the beginning of the large chamber. If essential oils are used, 1-5 drops per 2 ml of water are enough. Before starting inhalation, if necessary, lower the device into a container with hot water (for example, in a glass). After the end of inhalation, drain the medicinal mixture through the nozzle. Essential oils can be used until complete evaporation.

Sterilization and cleaning of the inhaler is carried out by boiling in water, or by washing and rinsing in alcohol.

Inhalation through the mouth: take the mouthpiece into the mouth, inhale through the mouth (by sucking air from the AI), exhale through the nose.

Inhalation through the nose: attach a special nozzle to the mouthpiece using an adapter. Inhale through the nose, exhale through the mouth.

The duration of inhalation by these methods is 5-7 minutes every 3:00, if there were no special doctor's prescriptions. If necessary, the period between inhalations can be reduced to 1 hour. Do not stop treatment until complete recovery or cancellation of inhalations by a doctor. Inhalation should not be carried out immediately after eating or physical exertion, it is necessary to wait at least 1-2 hours. After inhalation, it is necessary to rest for 15-20 minutes (30-40 minutes in the cold season). After inhalation, you should not strain the vocal cords and smoke for 1-2 hours.

For individual or family aromatherapy (prevention of acute respiratory infections): the lower part of the AI is placed in a glass of hot water (65-75) 0C. After 20-25 minutes, the room (18-20m3) is filled with the aroma of a concentration of 1 mg/m3 of air.
