title: [Reflexotherapy of neurotic patients with depressive-hypochondriacal manifestations].
abstract: Forty-one neurotic patients with pronounced depressive-hypochondriac symptomatology were treated by acupuncture. A decrease in the psychoemotional and algetic symptoms (sleep restoration, increased working capacity) following acupuncture was attended by certain changes in the nocturnal and diurnal EEG with the prevailing activation of the synchronizing mechanisms of nonspecific brain systems which suggests that the structures of the thalamo-cortical and nonspecific cerebral level are involved in the realization of the acupuncture therapeutic effect and that it is advisable to activate the synchronizing cerebral mechanisms.
