- What is the difference between «Dush Alekseeva» (the Alekseev Shower) and other shower attachments?

    The difference is very big! There are simply no analogues to our hydromassager in the whole world. The most devices, that we know (hydromassagers from Germany, Italy etc) form the jets by rubber insets. Because of that water spouts a little bit more intensive. Moreover, construction of such devices provides a couple of modes (changing the number and position of outlet nozzles, using the switcher). Surely, all this is much better then a common shower and makes some kind of massaging effect, but such effect is incomparable to influence of «Dush Alekseeva» (the Alekseev Shower).
    An exclusive feature of «Dush Alekseeva» (the Alekseev Shower) is a special conoidal form of nozzles (not cylindrical, like any other common shower, and not conical, but a special calculated one, with a complex geometry). Inlet diameter is 5 mm, outlet diameter is 0,6–0,8 mm. They are ideal transformers of water pressure energy (in a water supply system) into a kinetic energy of the jet, which flows from the shower. A special technology of making nozzles is the point of Alekseev invention.
    You might have seen how far and powerful spouts water from the fire-hose. Now imagine how flows of small thorny jets spout out of the plenty of micro fire-hoses (nozzles of «Dush Alekseeva» (the Alekseev Shower)) and by normal water pressure they move strictly horizontally for 3-5 meters, instead of dispersing and changing their destination. Water, which ensues from the nozzle, is a drop-like flow with a large amount of kinetic energy. Drops are tightly packed and look like an ideal powerful jet. Touching the skin surface they make an effect of a frequent dot influence. That's why Alekseev invention is so unique.

- When should that shower be used? What healing effect does it have?

    Hydromassager should be used if the doctor generally prescribes you a massage.
    A plenty of researches show that hydromassage is much more beneficial then simple massage by hands. For example: “Consequence of mechanical factor was shown in the work of D.Doring (1966). During comparative researches of hydrodynamic reactions of healthy persons and persons with hypertension to the influence of the underwater shower-massage and hand-massage (without water) author concluded that underwater shower-massage decreases beat and minute heart volume, causes diminution of the expulsion level and increases peripheral resistance. Moreover, there is a descent of arterial blood pressure, as a result of reduction of beat heart volume and increase of peripheral resistance. After the hand-massage there're no changes in blood circulation, except by a slight reduction of pulse frequency and elongation of the expulsion level.” W.T.Olefirenko “The Water Treatment”, Moscow, "Medicine", 1986, p. 51.
    All that things we discuss on our main page and in the section "Information".
    These are basic cases, when «Dush Alekseeva» (the Alekseev Shower) should be used:
- Diseases of cardiovascular system (reduces development of an atherosclerosis, vegetative dystonia, improves a blood-groove).
- A cellulitis. Weakness of muscles, flabbiness of a skin, infringement of a fatty exchange and other lacks of a figure.
- A syndrome of chronic weariness. The lowered immunity.
- Diseases of the impellent system (an arthritis etc).
- Diseases of a peripheral department of nerve system.
- Hypostases (because of infringement of lymph flow and venous stagnation, after a trauma).
- Infringement of sleep, sleeplessness. Weather dependence.
- Dysfunction of intestines.
- The climacteric period.
- A hang-over and other poisonings.
- For the prevention of infringements of blood circulation (including varicose).
That hydromassage improves the general condition of the organism, cheers you up, restores body contours, and amends potency and immunity. And what's more important appears a feeling of youth and freshness.

- What should I do, if the pressure in my water supply system is low? Would that influent on the functionality of «Dush Alekseeva» (the Alekseev Shower)?

    Of course you will not get such a powerful jet, as it should be by the normal water pressure. But instead of this you will have better expressed effect of a hydro acupuncture. Namely, the influence of a small drop structures will be also useful and pleasant. Hydro acupuncture has better physiologic influence then needle pricks by a traditional acupuncture.
    Drop structure of the jet is provided by a special form of nozzles. You cannot see it directly, but it is clearly could be seen in pictures.
    Moreover, from the point of view of famous hydro therapists, mild but stimulated influence is more effective (in some cases). Also increases the vein tone, happens mechanical influence on reflexive zones, a stimulation is made, which increases the tone of muscles, normalizes the metabolism.
    You will ask us, how does it differ from a common shower? That's how: the jets of submilimeter size influent on the skin surface more effectively. What's more, by the low water pressure appears so called “water dust”, which provides the ionization of the air. This is mostly recommended for tired and/or weather-dependent people.

  Technical questions:

- What should I do to install «Dush Alekseeva» (the Alekseev Shower) at home?

    Everything is done very quickly and simply. For installation a hydromassager it is necessary to unscrew the watering can established at you shower and to screw the device to shower hose. A hydromassager suite both to domestic, and to shower hoses and shower mixers of the western manufacture, therefore problems with installation at your bath will not arise (at least, any complaints to difficulties of installation of the device did not act to us).
    For installation on the shower mixer of a domestic production, it is necessary to screw an adapter on the handle of a hydromassager, and then to fasten a product to shower hose. If the shower mixer is import – the handle is screwed at once, without an adapter.
    To swap grids of a hydromassager (19 and 61 aperture) you should unscrew the top nut, take out the established grid to insert necessary and screw up a nut.
    That’s all! We are sure, that at use of the device problems will not arise, because it is made from special (German quality) plastic which is steady against impacts and falling of the device in a bath. That provides its durability and a practicality in use.
    P.S. But beware the metal thread can “be broken”, therefore we request – do not experiment with files and flat-nose pliers – screw a hydromassager more accurately!

- When does the shower clog? What should I do if that happens?

    The first and obvious: it is necessary to put the filter on an input of water. It will allow making rough clearing (sand, pieces of rust will not get in shower). By the way, recently in some new shower mixers in shower hoses interleaves with web are used, that is the same filter. At bad quality of water there will be some kind of scurf.
    If shower has got clogged, don’t panic - it is easily cleared with the help of a solution of an acid (acetic or something else) and brushing. It is possible to clean accurately the thinnest place of nozzle using a needle (our buyers have told us about such method). Plastic in shower is really very good and strong, so don’t be afraid to spoil a hydromassager.

- Is «Dush Alekseeva» (the Alekseev Shower) compatible with the water warming system?

    It is combined perfectly. Because presence of a water warming system allows to adjust temperature more precisely and there are no fluctuations of pressure (and temperature too), as it sometimes happens (at pressure differences in a water supply system) if the usual riser pipe with hot water is used.

- Using this device I splash my bath very much, what to do?

    Yes, jets of water break and fly around. It is a by-effect from use of our hydromassager because water flows out a nozzle so strong, that at contact with a body it is simply turns to dust. All healing effect is based on it and uniqueness of a design of a hydromassager is in it. Therefore we cannot avoid it.
    There is a simple solution of this problem – curtains for a bath. If you haven’t bought it yet, try underwater shower-massage, it is very pleasant and it is very useful for children. When you will get the curtain, fix above a bath a bag, impregnated with aromatic oil. Then the water dust becomes really curative. You simultaneously take a shower and inhalation. But do not overlook, that time of procedure should not exceed 15 minutes!
