We calculated Universal Thermal Climate Index \(UTCI\) for ten\-year period \(2008\- 2017\) and then added adjustment terms, taking into account changes in metabolic rates during various physical activities from resting to vigorous exercise. The adjusted UTCI values increased with rising activity, implying that warmer parts of the year were unsuitable for intensive forms of climatotherapy. These results demonstrate that the UTCI adjustment procedure provides well\-balanced assessments of bioclimatic conditions for the purpose of climatic treatment considering the level of activity."]
