Neural Therapy Treatment
07.10.2023
Neural therapy is a regulation treatment using local anesthetics.
The human body is an electrical body. Our whole body is a network of 500,000 km in length. Excitable tissues are capable of generating and transmitting action potentials by changing the electrical properties of cell membranes against any stimulus. Nerve and muscle tissue are excitable tissues. There are two types of potentials in cell membranes: resting and action potentials. While the resting potential is a potential formed by the different distribution of ions inside and outside the cell when the cells are not doing any work, the action potential is a series of potential changes that occur in the membrane as a result of the movement of some ions into and out of the cell when the cells are active.
Excitable tissues generate the action potential and transmit the electrical activity generated by this potential change across their membranes. In nerve cells, only the conduction of this electrical activity is done.
When a cell at rest, in which the inside of the cell membrane is more negative than the outside, is stimulated by any stimulus, the resting potential of the membrane changes within milliseconds and reaches a positive value. This state in which the inside of the membrane potential becomes more positive than the outside is called depolarization. However, the membrane potential does not remain in this state; it returns to its resting potential within a very short time. The return of the membrane potential from depolarization back to the resting potential is defined as repolarization. The action potential consists of depolarization and repolarization.
The resting potential of a healthy cell is -40 to -90 mV. However, the resting potential of the diseased cell is low and therefore there is no conduction. All local anesthetics hyperpolarize the cell action potential with a power of -290 mVolts and reaches -40 to -90 mV again, that is, the potential at which it can conduct; it makes the cell work again. Thus, the diseased cell turns into a healthy cell.
Neural therapy provides stimulation and regulation of the vegetative (autonomic) nervous system, which is a very large electrical network in our body. In neural therapy, 3 circulations are regulated in the body with local anesthetic injection applied to specific places; blood circulation, lymph circulation and neural transmission. When the blood circulation, i.e. perfusion of a tissue increases, that tissue is nourished; when the lymph circulation increases, the tissue is purified from metabolites, i.e. it is cleaned, and the tissue with increased and regulated nerve conduction works more regularly. Therefore, the self-healing capacity of the tissue that is nourished, cleansed and receives regular commands increases.
The basic logic in neural therapy is regulation. Therefore, it is the regulation of a structure for which there are indications. An anatomical deficiency, a genetic disorder table do not constitute indications for neural therapy.
This treatment method (Neural Therapy), which was discovered in Germany in 1940 and is widely practiced by physicians in Europe, is not only a permanent treatment method, but also a preventive medicine method. Because the basic pathology of all diseases, from cancer to simple pain, from a viral disease such as influenza to allergies, is the same. Perfusion, lymphatic drainage and innervation are impaired in all diseased tissues or bodies. Neural therapy is a very effective method used both in the fight against diseases and in maintaining a healthy state (preventive medicine) by regulating these systems.
After a detailed anamnesis, measurements and examination under the control of Hüseyin NAZLIKUL, M.D., PhD. in our clinic, if the case in front of us is a situation that we can contribute with neural therapy, we start 3 sessions of neural therapy. Ideally, we make sure that the interval between sessions is 72 hours. And in the fourth session, according to the results of the repeated measurements, we evaluate whether the body responds to this neural therapy, and if it has responded, we evaluate approximately what percentage of change has occurred and determine our road map. Neural therapy is a safe treatment method with no permanent side effects other than minor bruising at the injection sites.

TO WHOM CAN NEURAL THERAPY BE APPLIED?
Neural therapy can be applied to patients of all ages, including children and the elderly.
Diseases such as blood pressure, diabetes, heart etc. and medications used by the patient are not an obstacle to treatment.
In patients using only cortisone, the effectiveness of the treatment decreases as the body is completely suppressed.
Patients taking coumadin, a blood thinner, should be careful in some applications. In general, there are no drawbacks to applications to the skin.
Are there any side effects of neural therapy?
Neural therapy, which has been practiced in the West for more than eighty years, has no known side effects.
Neural therapy, which is accepted as a natural treatment, is not a drug treatment. The short-acting local anesthetic in the needles is used to stimulate the autonomic nervous system. As soon as the needle is inserted into the skin, this stimulus spreads through the nerve network and old nerve damage is corrected bio-electrically.
It should not be confused with the needle treatments given to the body by some physicians. In other treatments, drugs are injected into the tissue. In neural therapy, on the other hand, the needles are mostly applied to the skin to create a positive stimulus.
In neural therapy, only procaine and lidocaine local anesthetics are used. The anesthetic effect of these substances is not utilized, but their bio-electrical effect is utilized. Especially procain is the shortest acting local anesthetic. Its duration of action is 15-20 minutes. For this reason, even pregnant women and nursing mothers can easily be treated.
