FIELD: medicine. ^ SUBSTANCE: method involves applying manual cranial therapy. Manual cranial testing procedure is preliminarily administered for detecting dysfunctions. Then, preparatory treatment stage is applied to soft head tissues and collar region. Myofascial release and suboccipital release are performed. At least two dysfunctions are eliminated during each manual cranial therapy session. Each session begins and ends with manual cranial testing. To eliminate the revealed dysfunctions with the view on the detected pathological biomechanical changes, sagittal suture relaxation is applied by laterally stretching parietal bones, coronal suture relaxation is applied in region of its restricted mobility caused by holding frontal and parietal bones and tapping occipital bone from the opposite side, waiting for 2 min until relaxation sensation appears. Occipital bone condyles are decompressed by stretching them first cranially and then laterally. Sphenobasillary synchondrosis lateroflection is carried out by rotating the base bone and occipital bone about their torsion and lateroflection axes to reach prestress condition. This state is to be retained until the restriction is removed. Sphenobasillary synchondrosis torsion on the left side is carried out by cranially moving the greater wing of base bone and lateral angle of occipital bone. Temporoparietal bone relaxation is carried out by applying temporal bone external rotation and stretching temporoparietal suture aside. Temporal bone is decompressed on dysfunction side by fixing frontal bone on the opposite side and stretching auricle during extension phase in dorsolateral direction along axis passing through temporal bone pyramid. The traction movements are repeated on both sides in bilaterial dysfunction cases. Then, temporal bone is rotated about the axis passing through external acoustic meatus, zygomatic process is moved in caudolateral direction, mastoid process in dorsomedial direction. Beginning from the third session, the fourth ventricle compression procedure is carried out in addition by medially compressing lateral angles of occipital bone squama, by synchronously rotating temporal bones acting upon mastoid processes, with rotation movement frequency and amplitude being gradually increased. Occipital pump is carried out by means of lateral mastoid processes traction with automobilization carried out at inhalation phase with pressure applied to parietal bone region concurrently with back bending, and pressure applied to middle point of frontonasal suture with feet sole bending on exhaling. Flexion is increased by moving the greater wing of the base bone downwards, backwards and aside, moving occipital bone downwards and forward, moving temporal bone laterally during flexion phase. Extension is increased by moving the greater wing of the base bone upwards, forward, inward, moving occipital bone upwards and backwards, and laterally moving temporal bone. Condyle decompression is carried out during extension phase. Greater occipital opening is laterally and caudally drawn apart during flexion phase. The treatment is administered daily or every other day. ^ EFFECT: enhanced effectiveness of treatment; prevented secondary ischemic attacks and disease relapses. |
