The climatotherapy
The climate, as we know, greatly influences our organism. Excessive or sudden manifestations of cold, wind, rain and humidity cause not only colds and influences, but also a series of emotional disturbances, such as anxiety, depression, apathy, sadness and so on. As if to say, seasonal ills.
This is exactly what climatotherapy studies. The effect a certain climate has on the subject. From here the climatotherapist proposes a stay in a place with a different climate, which can benefit the health of the traveler.
First of all, we evaluate the differences between the starting climate, the usual one from which we flee, and the arrival one. The differences are used to calculate the adaptation time . Normally, a climate change activates a period of adaptive stress in the human body, which can range from one week to twenty days. In this period, the body works a lot and it is necessary not to subject it to excessive efforts.
Remember that when you change the climate, especially the hunger and the sleep cycle change, so it is important, during climatotherapy, to observe a correct and healthy lifestyle.
The climatotherapist then examines the disorder or pathology complained of by the subject, together with the degree of manifestation or intensity and begins to analyze different parameters, such as age, lifestyle, physical and mental conditions and biological rhythms of the person. Following this analysis, it suggests the most suitable climatotherapy destination . Let's see what to choose from.
