The fundamental purpose of this study is to prove the role and place kinetic treatment has within balneary cures with a view to improving bronchial asthma’s symptomatology. The research was conducted on a group of 7 people aged comprised between 25 and 31 years, five out of which were females and 2 males. The patients underwent a full balneary cure over a 12-day span with a daily frequency, which they then repeated twice a year, mainly with a 6 months’ break between one another. The kinetic intervention consisted of breathing re-education exercises associated with those in medical gymnastics, classical massage, as well as postures to facilitate breathing. In order to make an assessment as effectively as possible, the tests used were: candle task, air bubbles test, reading/ conversation test and the assessment of effort dyspnea. Thus, the results obtained in the final tests revealed a significant improvement in the symptomatology of the patients to take part in the study by the significant improvement of the parameters measured during the assessment. To conclude, kinesiotherapy is an instrumental means for partial or full recovery of morphological and functional deficiencies existent in the respiratory system’s diseases.
