[Laser therapy and cryomassage in rehabilitation of patients with facial nerve neuropathy].

Cryomassage and its combination with low-intensity infra-red laser radiation have been introduced as a novel treatment of facial nerve neuropathy (FNN) in 32 patients. Electrophysiological investigations (facial thermography, classical electrodiagnosis, electromyography of the mimic muscles) and clinical data including those of long-term follow-up show that neither cryomassage nor infra-red laser radiation studied promote transformation of facial tissues in FNN patients. Use of the above factors is effective in a preclinical stage of forming contracture of the mimic muscles. Special techniques of application of local hypothermia and laser radiation can be used in multimodality treatment of both the established contracture and sluggish paresis of the facial muscles.

[The use of point massage in patients with circulatory encephalopathy].

The comprehensive studies involving rheoencephalography and tetrapolar thoracic rheography made in 120 patients with dyscirculatory encephalopathy (DE) indicated that pointed massage caused a noticeable rearrangement of hemodynamic processes, which depended on the clinical cause of the disease and the baseline status of the circulatory system. This makes it possible to consider pointed massage as a therapeutical factor aimed at correcting cerebral circulation, which is indicated particularly in DE patients having a history of transitory ischemic attacks in the vertebrobasilar bed.

[The characteristics of the effect of point and classical massage on the hemodynamics of patients with a history of transient ischemic attacks in the vertebrobasilar system].

Clinical and instrumental studies have revealed differences in effects of nerve ending and classic massage on hemodynamics in 41 patients early after transitory ischemic attacks in the vertebrobasilar area. Point massage produced more potent vasotropic effect, contraindications to it are minimal. It can be considered as a pathogenetic therapy aimed at correction of cerebral circulation in patients with vertebrobasilar area applicable early after acute cerebrovascular episodes.

[The effect of massage on the neuromuscular apparatus and blood coagulating system of patients with chronic salpingo-oophoritis].

74 patients with chronic salpingo-oophoritis (CS) in remission were assessed as to effects of classic massage of the uterine and epoöphoronic reflexogenic zones on clinical pattern of the disease, bioelectric activity of the abdominal muscles, spine and pelvis, blood coagulation. The combined massage produced a more potent effect on electric activity of the above muscles and blood coagulation than massage on a single area. It is better to start massage from the abdomen and continue in the lumbosacral area.
