All diseases of the nervous system can be divided into vascular, infectious, chronically progressive, hereditary and traumatic pathologies.

To treat the nervous system, the sanatorium uses a wide variety of techniques - climate therapy, landscape therapy, hydro- and balneotherapy, aero- and heliotherapy, methods of instrumental physiotherapy, psychocorrection, massage, exercise therapy, swimming and mud therapy.

The climatic factor plays an important role in restoring lost functions of the nervous system. For patients who have suffered various cerebrovascular accidents and have other organic pathologies of the central nervous system, sanatoriums located in areas with a mild climate without significant changes in pressure and temperature are indicated. In this case, it is better to plan trips for the warm period, when climatic conditions are most stable. Sanatoriums located in coastal and forest-steppe zones are suitable for the treatment of neuroses and neurasthenia.

According to recent studies, the landscape is also important for such patients; sanatoriums are specially designed in the form of a quiet rural area, they are more reminiscent of a rest home than a medical institution.

Balneotherapy is effectively used in the form of various baths - radon, iodine-bromine, hydrogen sulfide, pearl, carbon dioxide. Radon baths have a pronounced relaxing effect; they reduce the activity of the sympathetic nervous system and activate metabolic processes. Carbon dioxide baths help activate thought processes, stimulate the activity of the cerebral cortex, potentiate metabolic and energy processes, have a sedative effect, reduce irritability and nervousness, and restore sleep. Hydrogen sulfide baths have a pronounced sedative and anti-anxiety effect.

Sea bathing and therapeutic swimming in the pool are also effective. They enhance metabolic processes and activate the immune response. Various means of hydrotherapy in the form of contrast showers, circular, ascending and Charcot showers help to increase adaptive capabilities, hardening, and faster switching between different types of active activities.
