FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely to physiotherapy. Therapeutic technique involves heating of applicators containing pre-homogenised Tambukan mud to 36-38°C. The homogenised mud contains (wt %): crystal skeleton 15.0÷25.0, colloid complex 10.0÷20.0, the rest - mud solution. The heated applicators are placed on a projection of a diseased organ. Then electrodes are placed on applicators with a cathode on one, and an anode on the other. Direct current of density 0.03-0.07 mA/cm² is supplied on the electrodes. In the first procedure the DC supply time is 10-20 minutes. In each following procedure, the DC supply time is two minutes more than in the previous one.

EFFECT: method improves clinical effectiveness ensured by higher activity of biological components of the mud.
