Description

The invention relates to medicine and can be used to improve the health of organs and systems of the body.

There is a known method for restoring the functions of peripheral nerves (invention patent RU 2119788 C1, published: 10.10.1998). Palpation diagnoses increased peripheral nerve tension. A massage procedure is carried out along the nerve. A transverse force is applied to the nerve. The application site is moved along the nerve to its periphery. Provides more complete restoration of the functions of peripheral nerves.

The closest in technical essence is a method of healing the body (patent for invention RU 2093136, published: 10.20.1997). The essence of the invention is to determine, based on the patient’s complaints, an organ in need of healing, with subsequent impact on the meridian associated with it, massage by patting and on the meridian points using an stimulating method, carrying out exercises according to the Hatha Yoga method while simultaneously concentrating on this organ and/ or the locations of chakras associated with the work of a given organ.

The disadvantages of the methods described above are:

- lack of targeted impact, there is no clear neurological connection between the central nervous system (CNS) and the autonomic one, i.e. restoration of the function of any organ is not expected,

- the organ in need of healing is not examined or determined.

The literature on neurology describes the action of the reflex arc “stimulus - response” (Nazdrachev A.D. Autonomic reflex arc. Leningrad: Nauka, 1978). Researchers of homeostasis prove that a living organism reacts to external stimuli based on the tasks of maintaining the body in a stable (healthy) state (Danilova N. N., Krylova A. L. Physiology of higher nervous activity. - Rostov-on-Don: “Phoenix” , 2005. - P. 239-251 - 478 pp.). There are specific studies of the conductivity and speed of passage of nerve impulses along the reflex arc (Neurology. National manual. Brief edition / edited by E. I. Gusev, A. N. Konovalov, A. B. Gekht. - M. GEOTARMEDIA, 2018). Basically, knowledge boils down to the fact that any stimulus is an irritant for the brain and requires a response as long as there is an effect on the receptors, which is what reflexology is based on.

The task to be solved by the claimed invention is the development of a method of healing that ensures the achievement of a quick (in one or two sessions) result, which is expressed in the restoration of organ function by restoring the neurological connection “brain-internal organ” without pain and unnecessary medications.

This problem is solved by the fact that the method of improving the health of the human body includes palpation examination of the abdominal and thoracic cavities for pain or reflexively unjustified tension in the organ or near the organ space, localization with the patient’s hand or both hands of the painful organ or near the organ space, determination of the reflex connection of the identified painful organ with the cranial nerve, performing manual traction of the nerve from the point where the associated nerve exits the skull towards its location in the body, performing exercises for traction of the cervical spine.

The technical result consists in restoring the functioning of the organ and reducing pain, completely or partially.

The claimed method is intended to eliminate disturbances in the functioning of internal organs resulting from a disorder of the neurological connection with the brain nerves.

The solution is a method of restoring the full, healthy function of an abdominal or thoracic organ (visceral organ) by correcting the reflex cranial nerves associated with the organ. The central nervous system and autonomic nervous system restore neurological communication with the organ by reprogramming cranial reflexes, thereby restoring nervous system control over the dysfunctional abdominal or thoracic organ.

The method includes sequential impact on the cranial nerves with simultaneous manual (manual) localization of the dysfunctional visceral organ.

In this patent, manual location is understood as placing the patient’s hand on a certain place in the body, which is a projection of an organ in the chest or abdominal cavity. That is, after the therapist has determined which organ needs healing, he places the patient’s hand on this organ, or rather on its projection on the body, and during the entire subsequent procedure the patient’s hand is in this place.

The healing method includes:

- palpation examination of the abdominal and thoracic cavities for pain or reflex unjustified tension of the organ, near the organ space (region);

- localization with the patient’s hand or both hands of the painful region (organ, near the organ space);

- determination of the reflex connection of the identified painful organ with the cranial nerve;

- performing manual traction of the nerve from the place where the associated nerve exits the skull distally, i.e. towards its location in the body from the place of exit from the skull;

- performing exercises to stretch the cervical spine.

The entire process is completed within 20-40 minutes. The result is stable with prolonged action.

Before palpation examination of the abdominal and thoracic cavities for pain or reflexively unjustified tension in the organ, the patient is interviewed near the organ space (region), complaints of pain are established, an anamnesis of all previous diseases is collected, and the available results of medical tests and examinations are analyzed.

Palpation examination involves the therapist palpating the projections of the chest and abdomen in search of tense and/or painful areas. Tension and pain in the organ can be associated with shortening of the ligaments, swelling of the organ, and damage to the mucous membranes. There should be no tension or pain in the chest or abdomen. If this is detected, then this means a malfunction of the organ, which is often associated with a violation of the reflex connection of the central nervous system with the organ. Such a violation can be eliminated and done quickly, permanently restoring the organ’s reflexes. The organ's reflexes are controlled by the central nervous system and the autonomic nervous system (ANS).

Next, after identifying the painful area, localization of this region (organ, near the organ space) is carried out with the patient’s hand or both hands. During the entire subsequent procedure, the patient's hand remains in this place. Manual localization is necessary to ensure that the sensory signal to the nervous system (NS) is continuously maintained. Thus, the brain will be focused precisely on the localization site.

Based on the reflex connection of the organ with the cranial nerve, the nerve that is reflexively connected with the organ is determined - the associated nerve. For example, the pelvic organs are reflexively connected to the olfactory nerve, the mediastinal organs are connected to the vagus nerve, the duodenum is connected to the glossopharyngeal nerve, the tension of the liver ligaments is connected to the trigeminal nerve, etc. (“Manual therapy of cranial nerves” Jean-Pierre Barral, Alain Croubier. Publishing house “Institute of Clinical Applied Kinesiology”, St. Petersburg, 2017; “Manual muscle testing: Theoretical foundations of manual muscle testing. Introduction” L .F. Vasilyeva, O.V. Kuznetsov. - M.: Ruchenkin Publishing House, 2021; “Patobiomechanics of the abdominal organs. Clinic, kinesiological and visceral diagnostics, visceral therapy” L.F. Vasilyeva. PRINT, Ruchenkin publishing house, 2020). The connection between the organ and the cranial nerve can be established either by reference in accordance with the medical literature or by manual muscle testing. Manual muscle testing (manual muscle testing, MMT) is a diagnostic method that evaluates changes in the activity of the myotatic reflex of skeletal muscles as a manifestation of impaired adaptation of skeletal muscle to isometric load due to disruption of its own trophic processes or the inhibitory influence of pathological reflexes from other organs and systems.

The next step is manual traction of the nerve from the site where the associated nerve exits the skull distally. Manipulation of nerve traction is carried out from the place where the associated nerve exits the skull distally, i.e. towards its location in the body from the place of exit from the skull. To do this, you need to fix the nerve with your hand, you can through the layers of skin, fascia, and muscles that are located above it. These layers fit tightly to each other, so fixation and subsequent stretching are always targeted, i.e. aimed directly at the nerve. To effectively tract a nerve, the therapist places one hand at the exit site of the nerve, and the other hand is positioned at the closest portion of the nerve in the body (approximately 1 to 5 cm from the exit along the path of the nerve in the body). Traction is carried out from the point of exit of the nerve in the projection of its location in the body. Literally from the exit of the nerve, away from this place, the skin is stretched, and all the layers under it are also stretched. The tension is maintained with a pressure equal to a force of 10-50 g. The traction procedure is performed for 3-5 seconds to 20-40 seconds, repeated 3-5 times. The procedure for the sensory nerves is carried out with cotton swabs, irritating the outward receptors with light vibrating movements. Knowledge of the anatomy of the cranial nerves allows the therapist to accurately determine the exits of the nerve from the skull through openings known to specialists. Often the site where the nerve exits is painful.

Below are some examples of nerve traction to treat associated organs.

Example 1. Vagus nerve. The first hand is placed on the skull in the projection of the exit of the vagus nerve from the jugular foramen. Presses him, holding the nerve. The second hand is placed on the mastoid muscle (sternocleidomastoid muscle) 2 - 5 cm from the first. The second hand stretches the tissue (nerve) towards the clavicle along the mastoid muscle.

Example 2. Glossopharyngeal nerve. The therapist's hand is located on the projection of the root of the tongue (above the hyoid bone), the exit site of the glossopharyngeal nerve. The patient stretches his tongue to the tip of his nose, pulling the glossopharyngeal nerve upward. The therapist uses his hand to stretch the root of the tongue downwards.

Example 3. Accessory nerve. The first hand is located on the spinous process of the second cervical vertebra (C2) - the exit point of the occipital nerve, which is a branch of the accessory nerve. The second hand is located on the superior nuchal line of the occipital bone in the projection of the passage of the occipital nerve. The first hand holds the beginning of the exit of the nerve, the second stretches it upward, towards the top of the head.

After the above manipulations, the pain or tension of the region (organ, near the organ space) is again manually assessed. Most often, both pain and tension stop, and the organ restores its functions.

The final stage is the elimination of radicular syndrome at the level of intervertebral segments in the cervical spine, corresponding to the exit of the nerves innervating the cranial organs and cranial nerves. Do the cervical spine traction exercise yourself. In a lying position on a hard surface, the patient, leaning on his shoulders and the back of his head, raises his chin cranially, upward, creating tension on the neck and spine. It is controlled that when performing the exercise the back of the head does not get close to the shoulders and the neck muscles do not tense. The pressure of the back of the head on the floor (table) is also eliminated. The tension is performed with the chin, directing it upward. In this case, the head tilts slightly back, but the tension is created only by the structures of the spine itself. When doing this, the neck does not strain. The exercise is performed for a long time, for 20 - 40 minutes. The point of this exercise is to move the vertebrae apart, strengthening the structures between the vertebrae, ligaments, muscles, cartilage discs. This expansion allows the nerves that exit between the vertebrae to be released and stabilize the spine.

The invention is illustrated by the following examples.

Example No. 1. Woman born in 1988 Diagnosis of “gallbladder stones”, according to ultrasound in the gallbladder there are 4-5 mm stones (5-6 pieces) movable, bending of the gallbladder, dyskinesia of the bile ducts, bile stagnates. Complaints: inability to eat because everything makes you sick, attacks of pain. According to doctors, the stones are already large and it is too late to remove them.

Because visceral manipulation may cause stone movement with exacerbation of pain, a standard direct ductal release procedure is not acceptable. However, only bile itself can dissolve stones naturally. Its alkalinity and fluidity in large volumes without delay will be a direct treatment. There is no manual influence on the organ itself; the cranial nerves are connected to the local work. Knowledge of anatomy allows us to make a hypothesis that the cause of dysfunction is the ligaments of the liver, in particular the round ligament of the liver. It is in a state of spasm, blocks the ducts, and pulls the gallbladder towards itself. The tension and tenderness of the round ligament of the liver is determined by palpation. The place of greatest intensity of pain (tension) is covered with the patient’s hand (localized), pointing the brain structures to the place of dysfunction. The human nervous system is tuned to an adequate response of the body to instantly adapt the body to a changing environment (homeostasis). There are two neural routes for this task. One is from the periphery to the brain, an afferent pathway from the sensory receptors of the body to the nerves and various parts of the brain. The second is from the brain to the organ, muscles, glands, the efferent pathway, with the inclusion of control from the cranial nerves over the reflexively adequate movement (functioning) of the organ. When we cover an area of the body with our hand, and even with violations, we give a sensitive signal to the brain and cranial nerves. For the central nervous system, this is an indication to eliminate reflex disorders. While the patient’s hand gives a sensitive signal, the brain works precisely at the site of localization to restore the reflex (function) of the organ.

From this moment on, the nervous system is connected to work in this area. While maintaining localization, manipulations are carried out to release the cranial nerves at the places where they exit the skull. A nerve connected to visceral structures or, irritated by the bones of the skull, by emotional imbalance is determined. In this case, it is the vagus nerve. Restoring the function of the vagus nerve is carried out by fixing it with the fingers of one hand at the exit from the jugular foramen and stretching it along the length distally, i.e. from the center, with the other hand. At a distance of 3-5 cm, focusing on the mastoid muscle. Perform the procedure for 2-4 minutes. After this, the condition of the round ligament of the liver is checked by palpation. We diagnose a state of relaxation, opening, painlessness. The procedure is completed.

After the procedures, during the first two days of recovery, a neurological bridge exercise was performed, which allows you to strengthen the vertebrae of the cervical spine and release injured peripheral nerves that innervate the organs of the head from the central nervous system (CNS).

According to the results of ultrasound after the procedures, no stones were found in the gall bladder.

Example No. 2. Woman, 54 years old. “Diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Complaints of running pain throughout the body (either in the joints or in the spine), constant belching, pain in the stomach, difficulty defecating, gas formation. The blood test is good, there are no deviations from the norm.

Since there is a general digestive disorder, regeneration processes in the body tissues will be disrupted. There is a deficiency of nutrients for almost all tissues, there is a violation of muscle tone, which in turn leads to overload of the joints.

The patient's complaints indicate that the sphincters of the stomach and duodenum do not work in a reflexively correct rhythm. When food needs to be transferred to the head of the duodenum, the pyloric sphincter (transformer) does not open, while the cardiac sphincter does not close completely. Reflux. When the time comes for the sphincter of Oddi to open, the pyloric sphincter remains open. Bile reflux. In general, the reflex to start digestion is disrupted. Accordingly, food does not receive enough bile and pancreatic enzymes. Unprocessed food enters the jejunum, causing intense gas formation. And in the large intestine, food, stagnating, “clogs” its walls. Defecation disorder.

The method according to this invention does not imply any manual influence on the organ itself. The cranial nerves (CNN) are connected to local work. Reflexes of internal organs are restored.

The anamnesis gives a picture of impaired motility of the gastrointestinal tract. Knowledge of anatomy allows us to hypothesize that the cause of this dysfunction is the ligaments of the liver, in particular the hepatogastric ligament. It is in a state of spasm, tightens the intestines, and disrupts the functioning of the sphincters.

The tension and pain of the hepatogastric ligament is determined by palpation. It is found that the duodenum is enlarged in size, dense and painful. The place of greatest intensity of pain (tension) is covered with the patient’s hand (localized), pointing the brain structures to the place of dysfunction. From this moment on, the nervous system is connected to work in this area.

While maintaining localization, manipulations are carried out to release the cranial nerves at the places where they exit the skull. Determine the nerve associated with visceral structures, or, irritated by the bones of the skull, by emotional imbalance. In this case, the “worker” is the glossopharyngeal nerve. Restoring the function of the glossopharyngeal nerve is carried out by fixing it with the fingers of one hand in the projection of the root of the tongue. The patient is asked to reach the tip of his tongue with the tip of his nose. At the same time, the root of the tongue is pulled towards the collarbones. Pressure 20 g for 3-4 seconds, perform 3-5 times.

After this, the condition of the duodenum and hepatogastric ligament is checked by palpation. You get a state of relaxation, opening, painlessness. The procedure is completed.

After the manipulations, during the first two days of recovery, an exercise was performed - a neurological bridge, which allows you to strengthen the vertebrae of the cervical spine, freeing injured peripheral nerves that innervate the organs of the head from the central nervous system (CNS).

As a result, the patient's pain went away.

Example No. 3. Woman, 62 years old. Diagnosis of pancreatic edema, pancreatitis.

Complaints: after fatty foods, the whole stomach swells, cutting pain begins. Frequent pain in the stomach area without overeating.” History of frequent respiratory diseases with coughing until vomiting.

It was revealed that the pain is localized in the pancreas (PG) itself and the intestines are painful. Palpation gives a picture of an increase in volume (swelling) of the body and tail of the pancreas. Light hand pressure on the abdomen produces sharp pain. Swelling of the organ is obvious. There are several hypotheses about the causes of pancreatic edema: impaired passage of enzymes at the level of the sphincter of Oddi, viral or bacteriological damage, mold or fungal infection (precancerous condition), psychosomatic disorder of the organ.

The anamnesis gives us a picture of a violation of the reflex of production and secretion of pancreatic enzymes in the act of eating and processing food. Knowledge of physiology allows us to make a hypothesis that the cause of this dysfunction is a violation of the swallowing reflex. Chewing and swallowing are the trigger for activating the production of pancreatic enzymes.

Palpation examination of the pancreas: the volume of the abdomen in the projection of the pancreas is increased, light palpation causes sharp pain. The place of greatest intensity of pain is covered with the patient’s hand (localized), pointing the brain structures to the place of dysfunction. From this moment on, the nervous system is connected to work in this area.

While maintaining localization, manipulations are carried out to release the cranial nerves at the places where they exit the skull. A nerve connected to visceral structures or, irritated by the bones of the skull, by emotional imbalance is determined. In this case, this nerve is the glossopharyngeal nerve.

Restoring the function of the glossopharyngeal nerve is carried out by fixing it with the fingers of one hand in the projection of the root of the tongue. We ask the patient to reach the tip of his nose with the tip of his tongue. At the same time, we pull the root of the tongue towards the collarbones. Pressure 20 gr. Time 3-4 seconds. We do it 3-5 times.

After this, we check the condition of the pancreas by palpation. We get a state of relaxation, lack of volume (swelling), painlessness. The procedure is completed.

After a wellness appointment, during the first two days of recovery, a neurological bridge was performed - an exercise that allows you to strengthen the vertebrae of the cervical spine, freeing injured peripheral nerves that innervate the organs of the head from the central nervous system.

As a result, the patient's pain went away.
