The medical community is approaching a revolutionary treatment model, integrating running as a therapeutic tool with clinically proven potential. Leading healthcare systems in developed countries are already officially introducing programs that prescribe physical activity alongside traditional medications.
The authoritative scientific publication "British Journal of Sports Medicine" published impressive results from a large-scale study confirming the effectiveness of regular running. Experts recommend 3-4 weekly training sessions lasting about half an hour as a reliable preventive and therapeutic strategy.
The targeted benefits include precise control of blood pressure, optimization of body mass, improvement of metabolic processes, and significant reduction of psycho-emotional tension. Specialized national initiatives such as "Run Prescriptions" in England and "Exercise is Medicine" in Canada are already applying this interdisciplinary approach.
In Bulgaria, the process is gradually being introduced, with university hospitals in Sofia and Plovdiv experimenting with innovative "movement prescriptions" for patients up to 50 years old. Doctors recommend running during recovery after COVID-19, initial stages of metabolic syndrome, and chronic fatigue.
The scientific community views running not just as a sports activity, but as an accessible, cost-effective, and scientifically sound method for prevention and rehabilitation. This paradigm promises to transform traditional therapeutic practices over the next decade.
