“…Well-being is a state beyond the individual body index and also comes from the positive development between the body and the surrounding environment [13]. Therefore, this study responds to scholars who argue that the body should be repositioned within a broader interdisciplinary discourse surrounding nature, health, and well-being [9,10]. Whether the subject matter of traditional landscape ideas is derived from cultural geography, human geography, structuralist geography, and holistic health principles, the internal meaning implicit in everyday activities is one important reason for the therapeutic efficacy of landscapes [6].…”

“…Furthermore, compared to green spaces such as mountains, forests, parks, and gardens, the therapeutic landscape of the coastal zone has received less attention from the academic community [28]. However, within the broader literature, the coast has been conceptualized as a "therapeutic landscape" [8,9,43].…”

“…There has been a substantial increase in recent years in scholarship exploring the therapeutic landscape experiences in China [9]. These studies are predominantly located in the northwest region, exploring yellow sand therapy [43,77] and targeting the elderly population within urban areas [78,79].…”

“…In recent years, there has been significant progress in the research on therapeutic landscapes within the physical, social, and symbolic dimensions, particularly regarding "nature-based" therapeutic encounters [7]. Notably, there has been fruitful exploration of sensory responses to the environment, with a focus on engaging with the processes and temporalities of intimate, visceral place sensing [9]. "Nature-based" therapeutic encounters view the body as an instrument for perceiving and sensing the social environment, rather than merely as a container.…”

This study explored the relationship between mental and physical therapeutic effects through three dimensions: man–environment relationships, a sense of place, and symbolic landscapes. The study used a combination of qualitative and quantitative research methods. Local residents living in the coastal area of Xinglin Bay were the research objects. Quantitative data analysis revealed that the frequency of residents’ visits was an important variable affecting their physical and treatment perceptions. For those who visit frequently, these visits can evoke memories, which can better express their sensory experience. The text analysis showed that residents picked up two major landscape elements to form the sense of place and symbolic landscape: one is the water body in the coastal zone, and the other is the cultural symbol of the peninsula. Based on untoward event experience, the residents assembled the elements into a new spatial relationship with therapeutic affordance.

This study explores the relationship between mental and physical therapeutic through three dimensions: man-environment relationships; a sense of place and symbolic landscapes. The study used a combination of qualitative and quantitative research methods. Local residents living in the coastal area of Xinglin Bay are the research objects. Quantitative data analysis revealed that the frequency of residents' visits was an important variable affecting their physical and treatment perceptions. In addition, the significance is higher for females than for males. The text analysis shows that the environment, especially the ecological restoration of water quality and migratory birds, is of great significance to the identity of local residents. Daily activities contribute to a sense of place and are what make the coast a place of therapeutic landscape function.
