What is Neural Therapy?
Our body exists because extraordinarily complex systems are well organized on top of one another and function according to certain rules and cycles; the circulatory system, metabolism, the digestive system, hormonal regulation, temperature regulation, the immune system, and so on. All of these systems function flawlessly because they are very well managed and because cells are in constant communication with one another.
At the same time, the nervous system, which wraps around every part of our body like a network, plays an important role in this flawless functioning. When a disease occurs, it does not affect only a single organ such as "the gallbladder, stomach, or a joint"; rather, it affects the entire system (the body). It is the task of medicine to intervene in this situation and to restore balance to organism processes that have drifted away from their normal working order.
In the neural therapy approach, the body is not viewed as an organism made up of the simple sum of individual organs. Because in the approach of wholeness and regulation, in addition to each organ working properly on its own, the relationships between organs, the body's energy, and the person's psychological and social state are also important. For this reason, at the foundation of this approach, the connective tissue that forms the main axis and the autonomic nervous system—also known as the vegetative nervous system (VNS)—which regulates all functions of the body, are evaluated for their true functionality as a whole, and diagnosis and treatment are carried out within this context.
Neural therapy is a modern treatment method used to regulate the organism as a whole. For this reason, neural therapy does not consider only certain symptoms; rather, it observes the entire "operating system" of the body. This perspective places it among natural treatment methods, but because it is treatment-oriented and grounded in scientific foundations, neural therapy stands somewhere between natural medicine and modern Western medicine.
Medications Used in Neural Therapy: As a term, neural therapy refers to a form of treatment carried out using the body's own neurovegetative system. In other words, neural therapy is the treatment of various diseases, and particularly pain, through the central and peripheral vegetative nervous system using local anesthetics.
Neural therapy is a regulation treatment. A stimulus is sent with local anesthetics to specific points or areas on the body, and the body responds to this stimulus either at that location or in regions above it. This response guides us both in making a diagnosis and in providing treatment.
