Abstract:
60 students with the syndrome of chronic fatigue have been observed in a sanatorium. 35 patients of the main (first) group underwent hydrokinesotherapy. The patients of the second group attended physical exercises as follows: girls attended shaping classes and contrast douche, boys exercised on different training apparatus and took too contrast douche. An estimation of efficiency of the carried out treatment was conducted with the help of clinical and paraclinical methods of the study.
Electrokinetic properties of cellular nuclei of buccalium epithelium were tested to reveal a general nonspecific resistance of the human body. The data of assessment of an electrical potential (Z-potential) showed that clinical improvement coincided with the increase in electrokinetic mobility of cell nucleus of buccalium epithelium (P<0.01). Physical factors proved to have positive influence on homeostas of patients of the main group. This index was not reliable in patients of the second group (P>0.5).
