“…Notably, decreased stress and increased relaxation, both physiologically and psychologically, were reported in nine studies (Christie et al, 2016;Kucher et al, 2020;Lim et al, 2020;Masel et al, 2018;Pretty et al, 2017;Seifert, 2014;Vujcic et al, 2017;Wang et al, 2019;Warber et al, 2015). In terms of improvements in mental health for the individual, a decrease in depression, anxiety, tension, pain and fatigue was reported by a significant number of studies (Kucher et al, 2020;Lee et al, 2021;Nakau et al, 2013;Wang et al, 2019). Furthermore, engagement in nature-based therapies resulted in psychological benefits, such as enhanced self-concept, selfesteem, positive identity, confidence, emotional stability, motivation, self-reflection, and a sense of achievement and responsibility for the participants (Christie et al, 2016;Kusumawaty and Yunike, 2020;Lee et al, 2021;Masel et al, 2018;Oh et al, 2020;Phelps et al, 2015;Sahlin et al, 2012;Seifert, 2014;Warber et al, 2015;Corazon et al, 2011).…”

“…However, several papers did not find any significant changes in physical well-being (Nakau et al, 2013), physical activity or physiological change (Warber et al, 2015), or cardiac health (Lee et al, 2014;Sung et al, 2012;Lim et al, 2020).

Purpose This review aims to identify the commonly used nature-based therapies, the cohorts that benefit from these interventions, and the potential environmental impact of nature-based therapies. Design/methodology/approach An integrative review methodology was taken. The literature was analysed and synthesised through thematic analysis. Findings Three themes emerged from the analysis: categories of nature-based therapies; benefits of nature-based therapies; and the gains from nature-based therapies are not universal. Evidence of physiological, psychological, social, vocational and quality of life benefits from participation in nature-based therapies was evident in the literature. However, there was insufficient empirical evidence of the benefits for the environment. Practical implications Occupational therapists assist populations across the life course. Consequentially, they can be found working in a diverse range of clinical contexts. This review asserts that nature-based therapies could be a positive addition in many of these contexts. Further, while engagement in activities in natural environments is frequently used by occupational therapists practicing within institution environments, there is evidence to support its use in community service models and potentially in public health strategies. Originality/value This integrative review brings together evidence on a diverse range of nature-based therapies, cohorts, associated benefits and factors that influence these. The lack of empirical evidence on the benefits of nature-based therapies for the environment is acknowledged as a gap in the literature

“…There is emerging evidence to suggest that exposure to Nature or elements of Nature may improve pain outcomes. For example, pleasant sights (Ulrich 1984, Vincent, Battisto, Grimes andMcCubbin 2010) and sounds (Farzaneh et al 2019, Saadatmand et al 2015 of Nature (including virtual reality (Kucher et al 2020, Tanja-Dijkstra et al 2018)) have resulted in reduced pain for a range of populations, and that the combination of visual and auditory stimuli is more effective at reducing pain than either stimulus individually (Kline 2009). Furthermore, a recent study found that spending time in green space resulted in higher pain thresholds and tolerance for pain elicited with electrical simulation, in otherwise pain-free individuals .…”

Introduction:The relevance of ecosystems to physiotherapy has traditionally been overlooked, despite its potential for positive health impacts relevant to conditions often managed by physiotherapists. Purpose: The purpose of this article is to introduce the concept of ecosystem services to physiotherapists, and to discuss how understanding ecosystem services may improve patient care, and population and planetary health. Discussion and Conclusion:Physiotherapists with an understanding of ecosystem services may improve patient care by value-adding to management through patient education, empathy, advocacy, and broader population health approaches.Physiotherapists are also well placed to promote the conservation and restoration of ecosystem through participation, advocacy, and the development of public health measures, to the benefit of global sustainability and population health. Further research is required into how physiotherapists currently use nature-based interventions, and the barriers and enablers to their use. To be adequately prepared to meet the challenges that climate change and environmental degradation pose to patient care, population health and health systems, both current and future physiotherapists need to take a broader view of their practice. By including consideration of the potential role of the environment and green space exposure in particular on their patient's health, physiotherapists can ultimately contribute more to population and planetary health.
