В представленном обзоре обсуждаются мономодальные и полимодальные факторы ‘зелёной’ природы, ответственные за позитивные эффекты пребывания человека в лесу, парке и других зелёных пространствах, окружающих человека. Большинство данных, полученных в последние годы международными коллективами исследователей с использованием современной диагностической техники, и включённых нами в анализ, являются доказательными. При регулярных прогулках в лесу с приятным дизайном у участников программ ‘лесной терапии’ отмечается мобилизация позитивных психологических и физиологических резервов, защитных факторов организма (в том числе, противораковых клеток-киллеров). Происходит снижение уровня стресса с уменьшением концентрации кортизола в организме, психоэмоционального напряжения, нарушений автономной регуляции артериального давления, сердечного ритма, а также уменьшение риска развития неинфекционных хронических заболеваний, в том числе ментальных, кардиоваскулярных, метаболических и некоторых видов онкологической патологии. Эффективность для индивидов разного возраста и пола кратковременного пребывания в атмосфере леса была выражена тем больше, чем больше были отклонения анализируемых показателей до ‘лесной терапии’, и сохранялась в течение нескольких дней или недель.Таким образом, дальнейшее развитие и широкое использование ‘лесной терапии’ может превратить её в эффективную стратегию превентивной медицины с улучшением соматического, ментального здоровья и психоэмоционального состояния населения крупных городов.

The presented review discusses monomodal and polymodal factors of a green nature, responsible for the possible effects of human presence in the forest, park and other green spaces surrounding person. Most of data obtained in recent years mainly international teams of researches using modern diagnostic techniques, and those included in the analysis are conclusive. With regular walks in the forest with a pleasant design, participants of forest therapy programs are noted to mobilize possible psychological and physiological reserves, protective factors of the organism (including cancer killer cells). There is a decrease in the cortisol concentration in the body, psychoemotional stress, validations of autonomic regulation of blood pressure, heart rhythm, and a decrease of the risk of developing non-infectious chronic diseases, including mental, cardiovascular, metabolic and certain types of cancer. Efficacy for individuals of short stay in the forest atmosphere was e[pressed those more, the more deviations of the analyzed parameters of the pre-treatment, and persisted for several days or weeks.Thus, the further development and wide use of forest therapy can turn it into a strategy of preventive medicine with improvement of somatic, mental health and psychoemotional state of the population of large cities.
