SPINAL DISEASES TREATMENT METHOD

Invention relates to the field of medicine, namely reflexology, manual methods for the treatment of spinal diseases as well as pathological conditions and diseases of the musculoskeletal system, nervous system, respiratory organs, blood circulation, and pelvic organs associated with a violation of its functional state. The presence of subluxations in the facet joints of the affected vertebral motor segments and the direction of displacement of the lower articular processes, as well as the place of increase in the width of the joint space, are preliminarily detected. At the same time, only the lower articular processes are corrected relative to the upper articular processes below the located vertebra. When performing blows, the pad of the middle finger of the supporting hand is placed on the spinous process of the displaced vertebra, the index or ring finger of the same hand is placed paravertebral.
