Kojori (Georgian: კოჯორი) is a small town (daba) in Georgia, some 20 kilometers southwest of the nation's capital of Tbilisi.
During the Red Army invasion of Georgia in February 1921, the heights of Kojori saw heavy fighting between the Georgian and Russian SFSR forces.
The resort is well known for its unique concept which is based on an assessment of an oxidative stress at the level of the life unit - cell in order to prevent possible chronic diseases and premature ageing.
The natural healing factor is created by the low-belt climate of the middle mountain which makes a good prerequisite for passive and active climatotherapy for the treatment of lymphoid cells, tuberculosis of bones and joints, bronchitis and pleurisy[citation needed].
The climate zone of the Kojori resort area is made up of an abundance of the sun's radiation, clear mountain air, a reasonably hot summer during which the day temperature is largely in the comfort zone, moderately strong winds, moderate humidity, deciduous and pine trees and fragrant grass meadows.
The climatotherapy of this zone is used to treat: cardio-vascular system diseases (first stage of essential hypertension; essential hypotension; first functional class of stable angina strain of heart ischemic disease; miocardiodistrophies of various aetiology; acquired cardiac anomaly of heart valves, without the stenosis of the left vein and aorta orifices, after 6–8 months of the extinguishment of rheumatic processes)[citation needed]; first functional class of heart deficiency, pathologies of the respiratory system (obstructions and non-obstructive chronic bronchitis in the phase of remissions; light bronchial asthma (in the phase of remission)with or without deficiency of breathing of first degree; iron-deficiency - anaemia[citation needed].
As revealed by the research of N. Kipshidze, after treatment in Kojori the haemoglobin in the blood of children rises by 10-25% and a high temperature is quickly normalised[citation needed].
Starting from the 1850s, Kojori became the summer residence of the Transcaucasian Viceroy and a resting place of a number of famous people, including great Georgian writers and public figures.
