Physiotherapeutic procedures are aimed at improving, removing inflammatory processes, strengthening immunity, normalizing the patient’s well-being. They are used together with drug therapy, enhance the effect of drugs. In anti-relapse treatment, physiotherapy can reduce the risk of re-exacerbation of the underlying disease, improve overall health indicators. Specific procedures, the mode of their implementation is selected by a physiotherapist together with the attending physician.
The center “Panacea” uses effective methods of physiotherapy during rehabilitation, for preventive treatment.
VLOK in anti-relapse treatment
Intravenous laser irradiation of blood affects blood flow, strengthens, stimulates the immune system, has a healing effect. The technique is used to prevent relapse of diseases:
- pathology of the cardiovascular system. Improving blood flow, normalizing vascular microcirculation, VLOK contributes to rapid rehabilitation after a heart attack, prevents a second heart attack;
- pancreatitis, ulcer, cholecystitis. Irradiation of blood with a laser accelerates metabolic processes, which facilitates the assimilation of food, reduces the load on the gastrointestinal tract, normalizes its work;
- inflammatory diseases of the joints. VLOK relieves inflammation, provides a stable remission in arthritis, arthrosis, etc. We recommend periodically conducting courses of such irradiation to prevent exacerbations;
- urological diseases, kidney diseases. Reducing the risk of inflammation, providing a restorative effect, laser irradiation of blood provides effective prevention of exacerbations of cystitis, pyelonephritis, and other diseases.
With laser irradiation of blood, its indicators are normalized, the transport of oxygen, nutrients by erythrocytes, and the removal of toxins are accelerated. VLOK increases the elasticity of the walls of blood vessels, which helps to normalize blood pressure, improves the functioning of the heart, brain.
Transcranial electrical stimulation
With such physiotherapy, individual areas of the brain are affected by pulsed current. This stimulates the production of endorphins, relieves pain, stabilizes the work of the central nervous system. Transcranial electrical stimulation is used as part of anti-relapse therapy, if necessary:
- enhance the effect of medications;
- normalize sleep, reduce stress levels, normalize psychophysiological status;
- ensure accelerated healing of tissues, mucous membranes;
- stimulate the immune system;
- eliminate the risk of relapse in the first phases of overcoming alcohol, drug dependence.
Doctors of the medical center “Panacea” recommend using the EFT method for the elderly with mental, emotional disorders, dementia. Course physiotherapeutic treatment reduces the risk of relapse for such patients, improves their general condition. Also, transcranial electrical stimulation can be used as part of the preventive therapy for gastrointestinal disorders, CNS disorders, hypertension and hypotension, chronic pathologies, the course of which is associated with the appearance of inflammation.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture – the impact of needles on certain points, parts of the body. Acupuncture is performed for stimulation, the production of endorphins, the effect of such a procedure is systemic, general.
In anti-relapse therapy, acupuncture provides:
- improvement of the activity of the central nervous system, the production of endorphins for the relief of pain, the prevention of the appearance of muscle, joint, and other pains;
- prevention of exacerbations of neurological symptoms, prolonged muscle relaxation to relieve spasms, tics, etc .;
- acceleration of metabolism, stimulation of toxin removal, which improves the results of prevention in relation to the gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary system, etc .;
- local action in the prevention of exacerbations of diseases of individual internal organs;
- removal of inflammation, edema, strengthening of immunity (this effect is used in pulmonology, in the prevention of diseases of the musculoskeletal system, infectious and other diseases).
Courses of acupuncture enhance the effect of taking medications, which allows you to reduce the dosage of prescribed drugs, reduce the risk of side effects. The use of acupuncture makes anti-relapse treatment more gentle, effective.
Electrosleep
Electrosleep involves the effect of a pulsed low-frequency current on certain areas of the brain. During the procedure, the patient quickly falls asleep. Even a short sleep provides a good rest, triggers a number of recovery processes, stimulates the work of the main organs and systems.
The Center “Panacea” uses electrosleep as an element of anti-relapse therapy for the following diseases:
- DISORDERS OF THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM (including age-related);
- diseases of the joints, musculoskeletal system;
- hypotension, hypertension;
- endocrine disorders;
- peptic ulcer, gastritis, other gastrointestinal diseases;
- asthma, COPD, other diseases of the respiratory system.
During electrosleep, the production of endorphins is stimulated, metabolic processes are accelerated, the work of the thyroid gland, central nervous system, and other organs and systems is normalized. The course of such procedures gives an anti-inflammatory, analgesic effect, improves the regulation of fluid in the tissues. With anti-relapse therapy, electrosleep improves the general health of the patient, his well-being, activates the protective, restorative functions of the body, enhances the effect of the medications used.
To exclude relapse, exacerbation, reappearance of the disease, it is important to restore the patient’s health after the illness, stimulate the immune system, and normalize the basic metabolic processes. Physiotherapy effectively solves these and other problems, helping patients to maintain normal well-being, improving the quality of their lives.
