Avoidance of air pollution by home-based high tone therapy in cancer patients
Home-based high tone therapy was highly accepted with a high number of treatment sessions among all patient groups. Additionally, strong reductions of emissions of CO<sub>2</sub>, NOx and particulates were demonstrated. It is shown that in Austria alone, home-based therapy could save as many emissions as 77 ha (190 acres) of forest can absorb. Therefore, the home-based treatment may be a promising approach to decrease our environmental footprint.
