It is common knowledge that the university students’ health standards tend to sag today due to a variety of negative social and demographic factors including the increasingly common physical inactivity. A high priority in the efforts to reverse the trends is given to the health-improvement physical trainings geared to at least maintain good physical fitness and cultivate healthy lifestyles, with a special emphasis on the self-reliant health practice management models customizable to individual needs, daily regimen and predispositions for physical activity. The study analyzes the frame concepts of the academic self-reliant health-improvement physical trainings and offers an academic self-reliant health-improvement physical training model including water thermal, massage, and body tempering practices compliant with due hygienic standards.

Keywords: health-improvement physical trainings, self-reliant training, water thermal practices, massage, body tempering, training tools.
