FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medicine, namely to radiation therapy and pediatrics, can be used to treat spasticity with muscle fibrosis in children. Palpation or ultrasound scanning determines the densest areas of muscle fibrosis. A solution of tizol is applied to the skin in the area of fibrosis. After 5 minutes, the contractubex gel is applied. The surface of the spastic muscle with fibrosis is irradiated using the Mustang-2000 laser therapy device, with a LOK 2 laser nozzle for 1-2 minutes. After irradiation, a vacuum laser massage of the muscle is performed, lasting 3 minutes. Also, the scalp and paravertebral zones are irradiated in the lumbar and cervical thickening of the spinal cord along the posterior median meridian. From 6 to 15 sessions are prescribed.
EFFECT: method provides a non-invasive, controlled reduction of pathological tone in paretic muscles, elimination of connective tissue fibrosis of muscles and, consequently, minimization of joint contractures, prevention of secondary spasticity and tendon retraction.
