The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of superficial reflexotherapy (redox-therapy) on the psychophysiological status of athletes. It was shown to have positive effect on central and peripheral hemodynamics and beneficial action on neurovegetative regulation of the blood circulatory system. These effects depend on the choice of applicators and the duration of therapy. Superficial reflexotherapy can be used alone or in combination with physiotherapy.
