For 12 days, the actress and director Klim Shipenko weaned from Earth’s gravity

The pool, massage, sauna and “Centaur” costumes are the means of prevention and relaxation that doctors use to bring back the “cinema crew” members – actress Yulia Peresild and director Klim Shipenko – to their “earthly” state. Head of the Medical Department of the Cosmonaut Training Center. Yu.A. Gagarin, Alexey Grishin told us the details of the recovery of the travelers who had been in zero gravity for 12 days.

Recall that the crew returned to Earth on the morning of October 17, landing 150 km from the Kazakh Dzhezkazgan. According to Alexei Grishin, no pronounced disturbances were observed in the astronauts after the flight.

On the day cosmonaut Oleg Novitsky arrived in Star City, the actress and director were immediately placed in a dispensary.

“They practically didn’t need help from the very first day,” the doctor says. – If we supported them, it was only when descending the plane or the steps of the dispensary. When they started going to doctors’ offices, they did it on their own.

The space flight participants (as the film group in the CTC is called) needed to visit a therapist, surgeon, ENT, ophthalmologist, neurologist … Not because they had problems – this is a general rule for all returning from space. We passed a general and clinical blood test, underwent an ultrasound of internal organs, an ECG at rest. According to Grishin, professional cosmonauts who fly for six months or more are additionally prescribed daily monitoring of the heart rate. The artist and director, who had been in zero gravity for only 12 days, did not need it.

On the second day, that is, on Monday, the doctors checked their immune status and blood clotting.

It should be noted that all these days, starting from the day of landing, space flight participants wear the Centaur anti-overload suit.

“On Earth, all those returning from space have subatrophy of the lower extremities, which did not experience stress in zero gravity,” explains Grishin. – Of course, one cannot say that the body can radically rebuild in 12 days, but additional prevention from the unusual earth’s gravity is still needed by everyone. That’s why we recommend everyone to wear “Centaurs” in the first days after their return, for about a week. They compensate very well for the load on the lower extremities in order to avoid undue pressure on the superficial veins.

Of course, doctors advise those who have arrived from orbit to lie down more, but in practice it is not always possible to accomplish this because of the large program of biomedical examinations and experiments.

Artists, of course, are exempt from most of the procedures, their task now is to recover as quickly as possible.

On the zero (the day of arrival), the first and second days, they were prescribed swimming in the pool, gymnastics in the water, physical education and physiotherapy according to indications. All this alternates with massage: therapeutic, relaxing, water.

Only from Thursday, October 21, they will be allowed to walk a little. If before that they moved on foot only when necessary, from doctor to doctor, then from the fourth day on Earth, doctors recommend walking 900 meters a day around the picturesque lake near the dispensary.

Despite the fact that the members of the film group had the opportunity to meet with their relatives who came to visit them in Zvezdny, they, of course, are drawn home. However, experts do not recommend them to leave the dispensary earlier than Sunday.
