Sažetak
The aim of this study is to determine the influence of bioenergy healing in recovery after high intensity stimuli on physiological parameters, which are already accepted as indicators of fatigue. Specifically to evaluate the influence of bioenergy on the values of heart rate (HR), lactate concentration and oxygen uptake (VO2). Based on still unconfirmed scientific mechanisms of bioenergy action, the hypotheses are set in a way that receiving of bioenergy may affect physiological indicators of fatigue, speed and quality of recovery. The study included fourteen male (24.35 ± 2.87 years, body height 186.02 ± 8.40 and body mass 84.96 ± 10.37) who underwent testing on four occasions. Protocol of the testing has always been the same while the modalities of recovery altered. During the first test a placebo bioenergy was used, during the second and fourth tests standard mode of recovery, while in the third protocol testing the subjects received bioenergy in precisely defined periods. Differences in arithmetic means in the twenty-two variables between the four protocol tests were determined using ANOVA and Bonferroni test. Results indicated that receiving of bioenergy accelerate more the process of decline in heart rate and decrease in oxygen uptake than other two modes of recovery. The values of blood lactate concentrations indicated that treatment of bioenergy healing does not affect acceleration of their removal, in fact, during the third protocol testing while receiving bioenergy the slowest removal of blood lactate was observed in two of the three variables. The results, with emphases on the heart rate value and oxygen uptake, indicate that bioenergy healing treatment can be useful phenomenon in the field of sport recovery. Since the paradoxical relationship between heart rate and receiving oxygen with the values of lactate in the blood is noted, these results also indicate many additional questions that will be an object of future research.
