It is known that bee vibrations have a positive effect on all processes in the body, including the respiratory system, musculoskeletal system, nervous and mental systems. Apitherapy is useful for diabetics and has no contraindications. Even allergy sufferers can use the service of sleeping on a hive, as there is no direct contact with honey, bees, or their products.
In addition, in the village of Pokrovka, Odesa region, there is the Church of St. John the Theologian. The church is located on a high hill on the left bank of the Tiligul River. It has 11 domes and 4 large bells, unique architecture, and ancient icons. Local historians say that this church is an exact copy of the church in Vienna, Austria. According to legend, there are underground passages under the church that lead to the Tiligul River and to a former estate (now a school). The walls of the church are reinforced with egg white mortar. After all the construction work was completed in the early XX century, the majestic village church was solemnly consecrated in honor of St. John the Theologian.
