Abstract: Currently, research continues on various aspects of pathogenesis, clinical manifestations and treatment of patients with bronchial asthma at various stages of its course.  This pathology is considered as one of the central problems of medicine and rehabilitology, to which theorists of medical science, clinicians and rehabilitologists pay considerable attention.  Despite this, the steady increase in the prevalence of this disease continues.  There is an increase in the number of severe, drug-resistant forms of the disease.  It becomes clear that for taking control of bronchial asthma, it is necessary to pay special attention to improving the applied approaches to the rehabilitation of this category of patients with the help of non-medicinal drugs.  Today there is a fairly extensive list of traditional and modern methods of rehabilitation for diseases of the respiratory system.  It becomes clear that the central place in these methods for the rehabilitation of patients with bronchial asthma should be physical exercises.  To date, they are recognized as very effective in terms of recovery of patients with this pathology.  They are used in the rehabilitation system for bronchial asthma is most often justified in the form of physiotherapy exercises.  To enhance the rehabilitation effect of physical exertion, they should be combined in such patients with physiotherapy, climatotherapy and massage.  This complex of rehabilitation has proved itself to be quite effective in terms of eliminating bronchospasm and normalizing the functional state of the respiratory system.  Proper conduct of complex physical rehabilitation in bronchial asthma in most cases can stabilize the course of the disease and bring it into a state of stable remission.
