osmotherapy
Osmotherapy is a medical treatment that involves the use of solutions with different concentrations of substances, typically salts or sugars, to influence the movement of water across cell membranes. This process relies on osmosis, where water moves from an area of lower concentration to one of higher concentration. In practice, osmotherapy can help in treating conditions such as brain swelling or fluid imbalances by drawing excess fluids out of tissues and into the bloodstream, allowing for more effective management of various health issues.
