The psychologist spoke about the benefits of bathing procedures for health and longevity

Bathing rituals contribute to maintaining health and attractiveness in adulthood, and also have a positive effect on metabolism and the state of the nervous system. This was announced on November 7 by Maria Rodnova, a female psychologist with many years of experience, an expert in age psychology, a kinesiologist, and the author of an integrative method of working with the human system.

According to the expert, the combination of high temperature and humidity in the steam room promotes active sweating and deep warming of tissues, which improves blood circulation, lymph flow and metabolism. These processes have a beneficial effect on the work of internal organs, including the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Rodnova noted that with age, the metabolism slows down, and the bath helps to maintain it at the required level, cleansing the body and strengthening the immune system.

The psychologist emphasized that visiting a steam bath relaxes muscles, reduces nervous tension and improves sleep quality. According to her, the emotional aspect of such procedures is also important.

"Rituals of steaming with a broom, slow breathing practices, warming up the body with sweating — all this creates a special atmosphere that helps maintain emotional balance and inner harmony," Rodnova shared in an interview with the newspaper.Ru».

She also added that the sauna for Russians is a kind of form of meditation that allows you to reboot and escape from everyday problems. In the steam room, the specialist noted, a person "disconnects" from the outside world, concentrates on their own feelings and reaches a state of rest, which helps restore the functioning of the nervous system and remove muscle clamps.
