[Controlled reflex and stimulation therapy of functional vertebrogenic pain syndromes]

Myo-vertebrogenous syndromes are the most frequent painful diseases. In physiotherapy methods of adjusted reflex-therapy like manipulations, neural therapy (therapeutic local anaesthesiology) and acupuncture in case of functional disturbances have been proved. We achieved an improvement in 93% of 1167 patients with acquired functional myo-vertebrogenous pain syndromes with the combination of this methods. In a prospective randomised study the superiority of combined reflex-therapy to the usual ambulant medicamentous physiotherapeutic treatment of low back pain syndromes is significant. Therefore special reflex-therapeutic consultations are recommended.
