FIELD: medicine, cosmetology, dermatology, physiotherapy, plastic surgery. SUBSTANCE: the suggested method deals with multi-channel electrostimulation with low- frequency impulse current onto muscular fibers with bipolar asymmetric form of impulses with trapezoidal envelope. Stimulation frequency corresponds to 10-150 Hz, time period - 2-32 sec, current power - 0.1-100 mA. Additionally, one should carry out massage along lymph nodes in two directions - from regional lymph nodes of head in distal direction and backwards due to pressing- rolling movements 4 times, not less. In area of regional lymph nodes of head and neck one should perform massage with pressing movements 7 times, not less. Moreover, in supraclavicular areas massage should be carried out during patient's expiration. Total therapy course consists of 14-15 procedures per 5-30 min each. The present innovation enables to improve lymph outflow, suppress development of adhesive process and favors development of collagen. EFFECT: higher efficiency.
