Effects of neuraltherapy in post-traumatic paraplegia: A case study of significant and permanent improvement in a cat

ABSTRACT

Neuraltherapy is a treatment method that applied to regulate the autonomic (vegetative) nervous system by using very low doses of local anaesthetics such as procaine and/or lidocaine. Neuraltherapy, which is a treatment method that can be used in many diseases, means affecting the autonomic (vegetative) nervous system and thus activating the self- healing function of the body. The fact that this treatment method is an effective interference field treatment component, especially in human medicine under the name of holistic medicine practices and makes it indispensable in regulation therapy. In short, when this treatment method is evaluated in terms of regulation; it can be described as the art of returning the body to factory settings. In this case report, has been reported that a cat with posttraumatic paraplegia and urinary/fecal incontinence showed a significant – permanent improvement after neuraltherapy applied to certain points by injection. The patient, who had proprioceptive loss, advanced neurological dysfunction and urinary/fecal incontinence before treatment, was observed to be able to run and to be able to perform normal motoric functions with complete recovery at the end of the 4 – 5 sessions of neuraltherapy. The patient did not receive any corticosteroid treatment during the neuraltherapy treatment period. Injections were administered directly into the site of injury and into segmental zones associated with the affected area. This case report is the first published article on neuraltherapy in the field of veterinary medicine in Türkiye and is a pioneer for future studies.
