The authors evaluate the effectiveness ofremedial exercise, reflex vasodilatation, providing evidence of the effect of Hauffe-Schweningerbaths of the upper extremities, a pulsatile magnetic field and other physiatric procedures applied inthe lumbar region. They discuss also carbon dioxide therapy (water and gaseous baths, subcuta-neous insufflation of the sprudel gas) radon, sulphur and iodine baths). Some supplementaryelectrotherapeutic methods are mentioned.
