FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely neurology, and may be used for treating lumbar and cervical intervertebral hernias. That is ensured by conducting a dispersion therapy by injections of drug preparations exhibiting the enzymatic properties. That is followed by a combined exposure to a constant magnetic field and low-power pulse visible and near-infrared light emission. The dispersion therapy involves arresting an acute pain with diprospan 2 ml. Further, a mixture of Traumeel C 10 ml and Chymotrypsin 10 mg or Lydase 64 IU with Chymotrypsin and Lydase alternated is administered 7-10 times twice a week. Herewith, the epidural puncture is slow for 30-60 seconds at the level of a cicatrical process and a hernia-involved disc segment to provide the infiltration of the scar epidural subcutaneous fat at the level of epiduritis. What is used therefor is a fine needle with the skin pre-anaesthetised. The anaesthetic solution is administered intermittently in a dose of 2-3 ml every 40-60 sec.

EFFECT: method enables making the process of hernia dispersion as fast as possible and reducing a probability of a recurrence accompanying the non-operative treatment of the intervertebral hernia.
