[Methods of increasing the effectiveness of pulsed heat in cerebrovascular failure and sleep disorders].

During prolonged sessions of pulsed heat (PH) carried out according to the earlier designed technique the authors also recorded on a continuous basis the polyelectrogram of sleep and parameters of the temperature topography of the body. The findings have shown a biphasic nature of the reaction, as well as correlation between the dynamics of the level of awakening and the parameters of the body. Impact of PH on the basic (nasolabial) and additional zones has been found to be fairly effective.

[1 of the methods of therapeutic action in neuroses].

The results of treatment of 58 patients with various forms of neurosis by intermittent thermal exposure (thermal pulsation) in the respiratory rhythm to the nosolabial reflexogenic zone are analyzed using clinical and electrophysiological methods. Thermal pulsation was produced with the help of a specially designed apparatus (an electronic thermopulsator with a respiratory adaptor). The use of impulse thermal energy was shown to bring about positive changes on the part of clinical and paraclinical indices in the majority of patients.
