Morning hygienic gymnastics and therapeutic gymnastics are used. Morning hygienic gymnastics lasting 5-15 minutes has a great health value and includes simple gymnastic and breathing exercises, as well as relaxation exercises.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is one of the methods of reflex physiotherapy. The method is based on the phylo- and ontogenetic relationship of certain areas of the skin through the nervous and humoral systems with internal organs.

Vibromassage relaxation

Vibration massage relaxation is a combined effect on the human body of low-frequency vibration of varying amplitude and periodic mechanical roller action.

Biofeedback method

The method of biological feedback (from the English biofeedback) is a special type of training in the voluntary regulation of such physiological indicators as bioelectrical oscillations of brain potentials, heart rate, respiratory parameters, temperature and electrical resistance of the skin, muscle tension, etc.

Bath and sauna: what are the health benefits?

Baths are considered one of the methods of hydrotherapy. The essence of the method is the effect of high temperature on the surface of the body and respiratory organs.

Therapeutic shower

Therapeutic showers are divided into local and general, as well as with low (0.3-1 atm), medium (1.5-2 atm) and high (3-4 atm) pressure. The intensity of mechanical irritation depends on the "hardness" of the stream, pressure and temperature of the water.

Therapeutic baths

Therapeutic baths are local, whirlpool, contrast, oxygen and turpentine. Local baths are chamber and sitting hydrotherapeutic procedures.

Electrosleep

Electrosleep is the effect of low-intensity pulsed current on the central nervous system through the receptors of the head to normalize the functional state of the brain structures.

Therapeutic massage
