Quenching
Hardening is a powerful treatments that significantly increases resistance to environmental influences. With tempering techniques improves circulation, increases immunity, efficiency, strengthens the nervous system. In fact, the hardening is training the body with beneficial physiological stress arising in the dose differences of temperature. And as with any training must observe certain rules.
1. In order for the body began to adapt to stress, tempering should be regular. Only under this condition may be resistant results, which will have a salutary effect and will increase the body’s resistance to everyday life.
2. The intensity and nature of tempering procedures should be chosen strictly individually. Based on the general state of health, tolerance to this type of training, goals.

4. Hardening is usually associated with short-term impact of cold, although it was proved that the use of high temperatures is not less effective. Also useful combination of cold-warm, it can achieve the greatest temperature difference. Particularly useful bath, sauna, combined with bathing in cold water plunges.
