Treatment of disc herniation with Kuznetsov's applicator

The Kuznetsov applicator for hernia of the lumbar spine is a special medical device that acts on biologically active points, thereby eliminating the symptoms of hernia pathology. The principle of operation of such a device is simple: a small mat, consisting of oilcloth fabric, has on one side a series of small blunt spikes that are applied to the necessary points .

These spikes are usually made from a fabric such as medical grade polystyrene. Less commonly, the applicator is made of special metal alloys. A similar remedy is the Lyapko applicator for hernia.

The history of the appearance of the applicator

The creator of the applicator was first an ordinary music teacher I. I. Kuznetsov, and then a folk healer. For a long time Ivan remained in the shadow of modern developments, he was completely unknown. Over time, he took up the study of the principles of Chinese medicine, where the doctrine of acupuncture plays an important role, which underlies his apparatus.

In every possible way trying to show his invention to the luminaries of medical science, Kuznetsov fell under the blows of ridicule. However, this did not prevent him from constantly and persistently working on his brainchild. Once among his patients was an important city official - hopelessly ill.

Ivan Ivanovich managed to save his patient, and only after that Kuznetsov began to be accepted into the medical ranks. In his further career, the traditional healer worked with cyclists, swimmers and, of course, with patients in the hospital. It is interesting that at first a remedy for serious ailments was developed as a weapon in the fight against sleepwalking.

Having an effect on the skin, the medical product acts on a number of active points, which helps to relax the muscles and relieve pain. Pain is the leading symptom in a herniated disc. Eliminating the pain syndrome, the applicator significantly improves the standard of living and relieves the patient from suffering.

The method acts like reflexology - one of the most ancient methods of influencing the human body.

It is important to know that self-administration of this method of treatment is not recommended. Before testing the method, you should consult with your treating neurologist.

How the machine works

The applicator refers to non-invasive methods of treatment, that is, it does not require surgical intervention in the human body. The main goal of conservative treatment is the elimination of a number of symptoms and pathological processes, namely: strong muscle tension, pain relief. Hernial pathology, affecting a number of nerve endings, causes the muscles to be in a state of spasm, which is why it is so important to relax them.

Modern applicators look like a small rug, on one side of which spikes of different degrees of dullness are arranged in a row.

There are several modifications of the applicator:

1. Needle belt as such. It is used most often and is the most popular among all. Best for relieving pain in the lumbar region.
2. A rug whose needles have a structure like a double point. This modification is best suited for relieving muscle spasms. Improved local blood circulation and partial relief of pain are a positive consequence.
3. Neck roll. The method has been modified for the treatment of hernial pathologies in the cervical spine. It well relieves the symptoms associated with a hernia of the neck, namely: pain, dizziness, nausea, tinnitus, blurred vision.
4. A rug that has a magnetic coating in its structure . This type of applicator is aimed at improving local blood supply and improving the metabolism of various nutrients and minerals.

Any of these options is used depending on the actual need of the patient himself. The effectiveness depends not only on the time of application, but also on the force with which the applicator was applied to the area affected by the hernia.

Also Kuznetsov's apparatus:

• accelerates regeneration, and hence the recovery of the patient;
• activates the defense mechanisms of the body;
• helps to strengthen the immune system;
• improves the supply of oxygen to the damaged area;
• improves the quality of sleep;
• restores muscles, regulates their tone and strength.

In addition to the directly painful period, the device is also used for the prevention of hernia pathology, diseases of the musculoskeletal system (osteochondrosis, osteoarthrosis).

Mode of application

In order to get the maximum effect, you should work with the tool as correctly as possible. To perform the procedure, two people are needed: the first is the patient, the second is the assistant to the first. First, the massage apparatus is placed in the area of ​​​​the lumbar region, in which the hernia is supposedly located. The assistant presses the mat into this area with the weight of his own body and the patient is in this state for no more than 30 minutes. The agent is then removed.

Such manipulation should be carried out up to three times a day for two weeks. There are also variations of daily use: the applicator can be applied 6 times a day for 10-15 minutes. The applicator should be used either 30 minutes before a meal or 2 hours after a meal.

In what positions should the operation be performed?

There are several variations of using the method:

1. The patient, if he does not have an assistant, can apply the remedy to himself by taking a lying position, thereby pressing the applicator with the weight of his own body. In this position, you should stay for 30 minutes, periodically, every 10 minutes, slightly changing the position.
2. On the lumbar region, the patient can apply the applicator with his own hands. If the pain syndrome is localized not in the lumbar zone, but on the arms or legs, the applicator must be pressed in this area.
3. The use of Kuznetsov's remedy with bandages or a corset.

Advantages of the tool:

• simplicity and ease of use;
• insignificant material and time expenses;
• small size of the device, easy to use; it can be carried with you in a bag and used in a convenient case for a person;
• after the application of spikes there is no risk of infection with bacteria.

Minuses:

• perhaps one of the most significant disadvantages of using the applicator is the dubious effectiveness and low level of evidence base from official medicine; in the modern scientific world, reflex and acupuncture are alternative methods of treatment that are not taken seriously by the scientific community;
• the product should not be applied to the site of direct damage to the skin; can not be applied to the area of ​​\u200b\u200bwound or inflammation;
• partial soreness of manipulation.

Contraindications for use

You should know that this tool is an individual property in hygienic terms. It can not be given to relatives, friends and even your children for use.

Also, the use of the applicator becomes impossible if there are such diseases or conditions:

• almost all oncological diseases;
• pregnancy;
• the presence of spots, moles, warts on the skin;
• cardiovascular diseases: angina pectoris, heart failure;
• infectious diseases: pneumonia, bronchitis;
• diabetes;
• epilepsy or any other epileptic disorder.
