[Laser therapy in the treatment of the discogenic neurological manifestations of spinal osteochondrosis].
Traction is one of the methods in pathogenetic therapy of spinal osteochondrosis (SO), but not all the traction techniques can be applied in the acute stage: the antalgic posture, impaired motor activity create difficulties for conducting procedures while the acute process endangers paradoxical reaction to the treatment. Adjuvant laser therapy reduces pain syndrome and enhances functional capacities of the neuromotor system thus providing favourable conditions for spinal traction.
