An Active Lifestyle Promotion Week is being held in Russia on January 9-15, 2024

    Physical activity is an essential element of maintaining health and a healthy lifestyle. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends 150 minutes of moderate physical activity or 75 minutes of intense physical activity for the full functioning of the human body. Insufficient physical activity is one of the main risk factors for the development of diseases. People with low physical activity have a 33% higher risk of getting sick compared to those who devote enough time to physical activity. Increasing the level of physical activity in people reduces the risk of depression and is a prevention of aging.

    The sanatorium's doctors have prepared lectures, talks, films, videos, booklets and leaflets about physical activity, diet and disease prevention. Moreover, there is a sports and recreation complex with a total area of 2500 square meters for physical education in the sanatorium "Krasno". It consists of a large sports hall with an area of more than 600 square meters, two gyms, two gyms, massage rooms, a multimedia shooting range, a sports equipment rental point and a billiard room. All halls are equipped with the necessary modern equipment. Exercise bikes, treadmills, and power sports equipment are waiting for vacationers. This complex solved the problem of organizing the individual motor regime of patients. The variety of types of physical therapy, the capacity of the halls, and the available equipment made it possible to increase the coverage of physical therapy for vacationers to 100%. The week of promoting an active lifestyle is an occasion for the whole country to unite with the famous slogan: "A healthy mind in a healthy body"!
