Initially, the main indications for the use of the therapeutic soul Sharko were diseases of the nervous system, because the very creator of this method of recovery - Frenchman Jean Martin Charcot - specialized in psychiatry and neurology. "At the dawn" of the invention, at the end of the XIX century, the procedure was carried out exclusively in hospitals. Later this technology of hydromassage was adopted by spa salons, centers of beauty and health. Today, even Sharko's showers practice some middle-class beauty salons. As for the last institution, any person can go there, regardless of the doctor's appointment. However, experienced specialists warn that jokes with a shower are inappropriate. It is a serious medical procedure.
Shower Charcot - effective treatment for many ailments
Water procedures have always been known for their beneficial effects on the entire body, and contrast shower especially. It may seem at first glance that Dr. Sharko did not discover anything new. However, the soul of his name is a more rigid method, when cold (20 degrees) and hot (40 degrees) water is fed through special hoses with a powerful jet. The jet is able to expand, irrigating the whole body with fine rain, then narrow and go to certain points. It is unlikely that an ignorant person, without knowledge of anatomy, can competently manage such a massage.
From the person who shows Charcot's soul, during the procedure, too, some rules are required, one of which is to hold on tightly to the handrails during the entire five-minute procedure. In the process, you will not be able to relax. True, the patient has time to prepare mentally, because the speed of the jet is increased from procedure to procedure, while the temperature amplitude gradually increases (10-45 degrees). If you happen to visit a rest home or a sanatorium, where there are all conditions for such water treatment, you should definitely follow the doctor's instructions.
Tasks solved with the help of hydromassage:
- stress and chronic fatigue syndrome;
- diseases of the musculoskeletal system;
- endocrine disruption;
- weakness of muscular musculature;
- vegetative-vascular dystonia;
- problems with blood circulation.
If there are no contraindications, then the procedure is appointed as general restorative. The powerful force of the water jet creates a certain stress for the organism, which, in turn, forces it to use all the hidden reserves to fight the disease.
Sharko shower indications for cosmetic purposes
Some cosmetic problems are also solved with the help of Charcot's soul:
- cellulite ;
- overweight;
- excretion of toxins and toxins ;
- normalization of the sebaceous glands.
The testimony to Charcot's soul for weight loss is based on the fact that a sharp contrast of temperatures speeds up metabolic processes and accumulated fat is burned faster. Stimulation of the circulatory system leads to the fact that the skin is cleared and becomes more elastic and smooth. It is worth noting that the shower Charcot for cosmetic purposes does not immediately give an obvious result of the smoothness and silky skin. On the contrary, one must be prepared for the fact that bruises will be visible from the strong impacts of the water jet first. Especially if the skin is predisposed to such a reaction. For this reason, some women simply can not stand the entire course in 10 procedures.

- pregnancy;
- menstruation.
If you have to travel to the sea, then the procedure is also better to postpone, so as not to feel constrained by the defects that have not yet come down on the body.
