Abstract

Aim. The aim of our research was to correct psychophysiological status in women with asthenic syndrome. Prevention and early correction of asthenic syndrome contribute to health maintenance in female teachers. Material and Methods. The first stage of our research was dedicated to study of psychophysical health in 20 female teachers. The second stage involved correction of psychophysical status in female teachers with asthenic syndrome using the designed spiral gymnastics complex. Psychophysical status in female teachers was assessed by the following means: survey, nervous system asthenization test, Ruffier functional test, bioimpedance analysis, and WAM method (well-being, activity, mood). Results. All examined women had signs of asthenic syndrome of different severity. 14 women (70%) had 1 to 3 chronic diseases and believed that acute exacerbations were associated with stress factors of their professional activity. However, vacation did not improve the psychophysical health in teachers. The performed correction resulted in significant enhancement of the nervous system functional status, body composition, and psycho-emotional status in female teachers with asthenic syndrome. Conclusion. Spiral gymnastics complex developed by the authors is effective in correcting psychophysical status in female teachers with asthenic syndrome. It may be recommended for using by teachers to prevent and correct signs of asthenia, to provide overall health promotion, and to stimulate the mechanisms of adaptation to unfavorable factors of professional activity.
