Dermatological-allergologic climatotherapy is interpreted as a therapy within a specific climate with proven therapeutic benefits, immediate and longterm. Intensive classical dermatological in-patient therapy is combined with specific climatic effects. Primarily, the climate of the high mountains (1560 m) and of the North Sea islands is of proven efficacy for dermatoses and allergic diseases such as atopic dermatitis (neurodermatitis), eczema, psoriasis, T-cell lymphoma, bronchial asthma. Specialized therapeutic utilities exist. Directly influencing climatic factors such as insolation, thermic-hygric and aerosol conditions without or with diminished allergic potency and nonspecific stimulating climate factors change immune functions and effect stabilization. The therapeutic immediate and longterm efficacy of the high mountain climate is proven by excellent follow-up results. Its superiority to the dermatological therapy applied at home is evident. Measurement and analysis of climate efficacy has however proven difficult because of its complexity. The findings of several recent clinical and biochemical studies are presented.
