Neural therapy stimulates and regulates the autonomic nervous system, which forms an extensive electrical network in our body. Through the application of localized anesthetic injections in neural therapy, three circulatory systems in the body are regulated: blood circulation, lymphatic circulation, and neural transmission. When the blood circulation, or perfusion, of a tissue increases, that tissue becomes nourished. Similarly, enhanced lymphatic circulation helps in purging tissue from metabolic byproducts, effectively cleansing it. Additionally, the improved neural transmission in the regulated tissue results in more orderly functioning. Consequently, tissues that are well-nourished, cleansed, and receive clear neural signals have an increased capacity for self-healing.
It’s essential to recognize that neural therapy is considered a natural treatment and not a medication-based therapy. It leverages the use of a short-acting local anesthetic substance through injections. As soon as the needle is inserted into the skin, the resulting stimulation spreads through the neural network, addressing prior nerve damage in a bio-electrical manner. For this purpose, two types of local anesthetics, lidocaine or procaine, are used.
The intervals between sessions are typically 5-7 days, with a minimum of 3 sessions recommended before assessing the patient’s response and determining the treatment frequency. It has no known side effects. It has proven to be an effective treatment option for various conditions, including but not limited to neck, back, and lumbar pain, rheumatic diseases, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, shingles, herniated discs, and migraines.
