GASTEIN
RADON GALLERY
Due to its outstanding success rate, the Gastein Radon Gallery is regarded
as the most effective healing therapy in the Gastein valley. Its extraordinary
level of effectiveness is derived from three naturally occurring healing factors:
A radon concentration of up to 4.5 nano-Curie per
litre of air
An air temperature of 37.0 C to 41.5 C
Relative humidity of 70-95 %
A
subterranean railway extends 2.5 km into the heart of the
mountain.The warmth and high humidity causes the body temperature to rise to
approximately 38 C, which increases the absorption of radon. Short-term exposure
to radon - a noble gas - stimulates cellular metabolism.
