ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION. Studying the influence of meteorological and heliophysical factors on the human body is an urgent problem in restorative medicine. AIM. To study the characteristics of the microclimatic zones of the territory of the village of Arkhipo-Osipovka, the Black Sea coast of the Krasnodar Territory and the physiological parameters of healthy volunteers before and after the terrainkur in order to assess the effectiveness of its individual routes.
MATERIALS AND METHODS. Bioclimatic zoning of the territory of the SKK “Vulan” was carried out, the village of Arkhipo-Osipovka, the Black Sea coast of the Krasnodar Territory, according to standard methods in October 2023. In October 2023, a clinical study was conducted with the participation of 12 healthy volunteers, using a cross-sectional study design. All study participants went through a standard health path route every day in different microclimatic zones, before and after which a psychophysiological study was carried out, heart rate variability (HRV) was assessed, microcirculation and composition body weight using the bioimpedance method. 
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION. It was revealed that the psychophysiological state of the volunteers was characterized by overstrain of regulatory systems (the median indicator of activity of regulatory systems in all zones was 7.0); after the health path, statistically significant changes in HRV, hemodynamic parameters, microcirculation and body composition were noted (p < 0.05). However, the rate of increase or decrease in indicators was heterogeneous in different microclimates (p < 0.05). According to the results of the cluster analysis, the circulation regime was associated with indicators of HRV and microcirculation, and ambient temperature with HRV and body composition. When analyzing the body’s adaptive response to the influence of climatic factors and identified microclimatic zones, the same type of nonspecific response of the body of healthy volunteers to physical activity was recorded, but the degree of severity of this response was different.
CONCLUSION. The introduction of bioclimatic zoning in sanatorium-resort organizations will allow optimizing health path techniques, due to the possibility of dosing the climatic load, by determining the optimal location, time of year and microclimate for conducting sanatorium-resort treatment.
