The effects of physiotherapeutic factors such as electric sleep, sinusoidal modulated currents. UV radiation, interference currents, decimeter waves, laser radiation were studied in 600 sportsmen active in cyclic and acyclic sports. Recommended are both single and course procedures because the above factors are found to diminish immunodeficiency and to increase muscular performance in sportsmen.

The effects of balneological factors on cardiovascular system, external respiration, muscular performance, neuromuscular system and blood biochemistry give grounds to believe that inclusion of these factors in one-year training cycle extends the armery of effective tools recovering and improving muscular performance, preventing diseases and traumas in sportsmen.

A comparative study has been made of the effects which might be produced on body functions of athletes by electric sleep. The induction of the sleep was conducted using square electric pulses with 10 and 100 Hz frequencies. The latter frequency (8-10 sleep procedures) stimulated the examinees somatically and psychologically, whereas electrotherapeutic sleep procedures at 10 Hz displayed sedative effects and thus were indicated for overstrained sportsmen and in some diseases.

The authors studied 90 patients going in for cyclic and acyclic sports. All of them were exposed to interference currents given according to the segmentary technique. It was established that such treatment promoted cardiovascular recovery as well as that of neuromuscular system, enhanced physical performance, corrected impaired levels of catecholamines.
