EFFICIENCY OF HALOTHERAPY IN IMPROVING HUMAN PERFORMANCE IN GYMNASIUM STUDENTS)

Abstract

The paper presents on the basis of studies conducted in recent years in our team on the generation, chemical, physical and structural characterization and dynamics of saline aerosols, their role in increasing the anatomical structural performance for students. Halotherapy is performed by inhaling saline aerosols through the airways, as well as by absorbing them on the skin. The salt nanoparticles have a considerable negative charge (6-10 nK / m³), and the surface of the airway has a slight positive charge, with a wide range of dimensions, from the Aitken type (between the single ion, as such or solvate, and nanostructural aggregates smaller than 50 µ to the sedimentable aggregate (with a diameter greater than 500 µ to 1000 µ) [1].Regarding these nanoparticles, a series of artificial halochambers were developed, which were experimented in teaching activities with students, in Physical Education classes and for other study disciplines. Thus, a series of diaphragm generators containing porous NaCl granules were used, obtained by recrystallization from supersaturated solutions and which were arranged in the classrooms (two in number), as well as in the gym, which operated. as halochambers. Students were monitored twice a week for the evolution of morphostructural and biometric characteristics. For each work program, the level of saline aerosols / solions was correlated with the average data of the biometric characteristics of the students, separated by sex. For Aitken particles, the lifespan varies between 12 and 72 hours. Thus, it was proved by the obtained results that these nanoparticles have a beneficial influence on the development of high school students, females having higher receptivity to the effect of improving human performance.
