METHOD OF TREATING SPINAL OSTEOCHONDROSIS Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC A61N5/67 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention concerns medicine, neurology. The method involves as follows. The points are exposed to the low intensity laser light generated with a light guide inserted through a needle. The exposure is performed at wave length 630 nm through the needle inserted at the angle 40 - 45° at the depth 30 - 35 mm. One of the points is a median located between spinous processes of vertebras adjoining the involved intervertebral disk. Three points are paravertebral and distanced 1.5 cm from each other and from spinous processes, while being aligned with a projection of intervertebral foramens. The exposure takes 5 minutes for each point. The therapy represents a course.

EFFECT: method activates reparative processes in tissues, reduces painful sensitivity due to reduced pulse activity of nervous fibres, while segmental-metameric bonds enable to create reflex phenomena of viscera.
