Abstract:
1. A pressurized carbon dioxide bathing apparatus which is to bring carbon dioxide with a concentration of a predetermined value or more into contact with skin of a human body, thereby enlarge the blood vessel and improve the blood circulation, comprising: a carbon dioxide supply unit to supply carbon dioxide contained in water vapor; a compressed air supply unit; a first cover suit connected to the carbon dioxide supply unit via a connector and filled with a mixed gas of carbon dioxide and water vapor supplied from the carbon dioxide supply unit, and the first cover suit forming an enclosed layer to bring the mixed gas of carbon dioxide and water vapor into direct contact with the skin of the human body; and a second cover suit connected to the compressed air supply unit via another connector, the second cover suite forming another enclosed layer filled with compressed air supplied from the compressed air supply unit outside the first cover suit, wherein the carbon dioxide supply unit has a carbon dioxide bottle with carbon dioxide, water, a carbon dioxide inserting portion to which the carbon dioxide bottle with carbon dioxide filled therein is inserted, a water-retaining portion for receiving water, and a mixed gas supply opening communicating with the connector of the first cover suit, the carbon dioxide inserting portion releasing the carbon dioxide inside the carbon dioxide bottle into water in the water-retaining portion in bubble form of fine-particle size, thereby obtaining the mixed gas of carbon dioxide and water vapor, wherein the mixed gas of carbon dioxide and water vapor from the carbon dioxide supply unit is brought into contact with the skin of the human body with the predetermined pressure value or more by the compressed air.
