Centre for Chinese Medicine “Sin-Ya-Chju”, Moscow, Russia

Introduction

Facial nerve neuritis is a widely spread pathology of the peripheral nervous system. It causes a lot of discomfort. The aetiology of this pathology varies greatly; in some idiopathic cases it is not clear which makes treatment complicated.

Objectives

The aim of our research is to show that applying complex therapy based on the TCM for treating facial nerve neuritis is efficient and safe.

Methods

We suggest combining corporal and auricular acupuncture with tapping on clustered needles, moxibustion, blood-letting, Sujok. This complex therapy helps to relieve and even remove the symptoms by strengthening the yin energy and improving its circulation, removing pathological Cold, stimulating blood circulation, releasing muscle tension.

Results

Our results are encouraging for the use of complex therapy for treating facial nerve neuritis. We are going to present a number of cases of successful treatment.

Conclusions

We can come to the conclusion that complex therapy can be applied as a complement or as an alternative of the medication treatment. It offers a possible cure for many patients suffering from facial nerve neuritis. We have not found out any contraindications.
