Mud applications
Mud applications are the imposition of a layer of therapeutic mud (silt 4-6 cm, peat 6-8 cm) on different parts of the body, depending on the doctor's prescriptions in the localization of the pathological process. Usually the temperature of the mud is 38-42 degrees Celsius. There are several types of mud applications: "collar" (overlaying a layer of dirt on the collar area), "panties" (on the groin), "socks", "gloves". There are 3 phases in mud therapy. The first is the reflex phase, when the dirt acts on the skin receptors and it is through them that the central nervous system is affected (the central nervous system is responsible for the self-regulation of important vital processes in the body). The second phase is neurochemical, when biologically active substances are synthesized in the body, their circulation in the blood. The third phase is the reaction to the effects of therapeutic mud: the blood supply to various tissues and organs improves, the absorption of oxygen increases, the products of inflammatory processes (harmful substances, slags) are removed from the body, the protective mechanisms of the body are activated. The third phase is the longest of all (from 2 to 24 hours). Since mud applications are accompanied by less overheating of the body, put less stress on the cardiovascular system, they are more easily tolerated than mud baths.

Mud bath
Mud baths are usually carried out on the basis of therapeutic peat mud with a temperature of 36-38 °C. Mud baths, in order to avoid excessive load on the body, should be carried out every other day. Therapeutic mud acts on the skin, and also penetrating through it, saturates the body with chemicals. Heat from the mud warms up the internal organs, which contributes to the flow of blood to them, inhibits the activity of the central nervous system. Mud bath reduces muscle tone, reduces blood pressure, reduces pain, removes pathogens from the skin, eliminates inflammatory processes. I especially want to note that when medicinal mud is mixed with mineral water, it leaches out, that is, minerals are released from it more actively, which enhances the therapeutic effect.

Mud wraps
The procedure consists in applying on the body a layer of curative mud heated to 40 degrees with a thickness of about 6 mm and then wrapping the patient with a film and a blanket to prolong the thermal effect. Mud wrapping has a powerful therapeutic effect: cleanses and stimulates all layers of the skin, helps muscles and ligaments relax, soothes the nervous system and improves sleep. Also, a complex body wrap normalizes blood circulation, reduces the intensity of joint pain, and also increases the amount of movement in the joints and spine.

Oxygen therapy
Oxygen therapy is a method of treating oxygen by inhalation. It is used in many diseases of the circulatory and respiratory organs. Also, this method can be used for gastric ulcer, gastritis, liver and kidney diseases, inflammation of the joints. Oxygen therapy is effective in treating oxygen deficiency in the central nervous system, which is most common in the elderly, as well as in inflammation of the nerves. In addition, it helps with heart rhythm disorders. Oxygen therapy is contraindicated in metabolic disorders, acute inflammatory disease, bleeding, blood clotting disorders.

Ultrasound
When ultrasound affects the body, its energy is converted into heat, which is why this procedure has a more thermal effect. Ultrasound promotes tissue micromassage, which increases blood circulation, stimulates metabolic processes and improves tissue function. Since skin can reflect ultrasound, ultrasound exposure region is usually worked with gel. Ultrasound is very effective for the treatment of myalgia, neuralgia, neuritis, arthrosis, arthritis, periarthritis. It should be noted that in the treatment of even one joint there is a parallel improvement in the condition of the other joints - this is a special property of ultrasound exposure. Contraindications for ultrasound treatment: tumors, pulmonary tuberculosis, hypertension, hypothyroidism, pregnancy.
