In 2017-2020, the eff ectiveness of the therapeutic-resort stage of rehabilitation was studied in 127 children. The children permanently resided in Krasnodar and were admitted to the therapeutic spa-resort center of mother and child “Diluch” in the resort city of Anapa. The authors selected 93 (73.2%) children with hypofunctional gallbladder disorder (GI) and 34 (26.8%) children with hyperfunctional GI disorder for spa treatment. The control group included children with the 1st group of health. The eff ectiveness of the applied methods of rehabilitation was evaluated based on laboratory and instrumental studies, as well as periodic dynamic medical examinations, which included the collection of complaints, physical examination, and palpation of the abdominal cavity.Results: Therapeutic spa-rehabilitation of children with DRBT included balneotherapy, physiotherapy, and aerophytotherapy without the use of pharmacological drugs. At the same time, there was an improvement in the condition of both children with DRBT of the hypertensive type (94.1%) and among the subjects with DRBT of the hypotonic type (90.1). There were no cases of the condition worsening in the observed children with DRBT that permanently resided in unfavorable conditions of the Krasnodar Region.Conclusions: Based on the obtained results, it can be suggested that diff erentiated comprehensive rehabilitation in the conditions of the balneological complex of the resort city of Anapa performed aft er the main treatment of gastrointestinal pathology is feasible for children and adolescents experiencing adverse environmental impacts at a permanent place of residence in the Krasnodar region.
