    Abstract:
    A combined use of acupunctural cutaneous electrostimulation of neural fibers and electrogymnastics of the vertebral column was tested in 40 patients with vertebral osteochondrosis accompanied by the muscle tonic or compression radical syndrome. Electrostimulation was performed bilaterally in the paravertebral areas at the level of the blocked motor segment, using series of impulses and achieving rhythmical flexing-unflexing movements of a small range in the damaged segment of the spinal column. Positive effect was obtained in all patients with the muscle tonic syndrome and in half the patients with the compression radical syndrome.
