[Effectiveness of balneotherapy in patients with neurasthenia using baths of mineral water under conditions of low-mountain health-resort Nunisi].
Total of 118 patients with neurasthenia were investigated. Among them in 62 persons a hypersthenic form and in 56 -- a hyposthenic form of the pathology were noted. It has been established that balneotherapy using baths of mineral water, which is low-mineralised weakly sulfide, chloride-hydrocarbonate mineral sodic water under conditions of low-mountain health-resort Nunisi induces a decrease right up to disappearance of complaints and pathological changes in neurological status in patients with mentioned pathology. At the same time it improves indices of perception, attention and memory, state of vegetative nervous system and functional state of the brain, has a normalising action on the indices of cardiohemodynamics and lipid metabolism as well as on the excretion with urine of adrenaline and noradrenaline, neutral 17-ketosteroids, free and total 17-oxicorticosteroids. Mentioned positive shifts were more pronounced at hypersthenic form of neurasthenia. The treatment carried on had a positive influence in 62 (100%) patients with hypersthenic form of neurasthenia and in 51 (91,07%) -- with hyposthenic form.
