Neural therapy for headaches and migraines: an innovative approach
Neural therapy is a medical treatment that, through the injection of highly diluted anesthetic substances such as procaine or lidocaine, modulates the activity of the autonomic nervous system to alleviate pain conditions. The goal is to restore the functional balance of the body, offering pain relief even in case of chronic and disabling conditions. Among the disorders that can be treated with neural therapy are chronic and recurrent forms of headaches and migraines.

How neural therapy works
Neural therapy was developed in response to the assumption that dysfunctions of the autonomic nervous system can contribute to the onset of chronic disorders. These imbalances generate atypical nerve stimuli that can induce or exacerbate spasms. The treatment, through the injection of anesthetics in painful areas or strategic points such as scars and nerve ganglia, aims to interrupt the transmission of abnormal impulses, promoting the restoration of the functional balance and control of the pain stimulus. Simultaneously, the anesthetic substance reduces local inflammation, contributing to pain relief.
Neural therapy in case of headaches and migraines
Headaches and migraines are neurological disorders characterized by recurrent episodes of headache, often accompanied by symptoms such as nausea, sensitivity to light and sound. In these cases, neural therapy can be considered as a reliable therapeutic option, especially when conventional treatments fail to provide satisfactory results. The most recent studies confirm that neural therapy, through the injection of small doses of anesthetic in specific points of the neck and shoulders, can help reduce the frequency and intensity of headache and migraine attacks, improving the patient's quality of life with a non-invasive intervention.
Contraindications and risks
The treatment of headaches and migraines with neural therapy is safe but must be performed under medical supervision so that an appropriate treatment can be set up and tailored to the patient's needs. The therapy is contraindicated in case of allergy to anesthetics, during pregnancy and in the presence of renal, hepatic or cardiac insufficiency. It’s recommended to inform the doctor about ongoing anticoagulant therapies or coagulation disorders. Side effects are minimal and may include pain, swelling and dizziness in the injection area.

Neural Therapy: an innovative approach to chronic pain treatment
Neural therapy is a medical treatment that, adopting a functionalist approach, alleviates chronic and acute pain by leveraging the ability of anesthetics such as procaine and lidocaine to trigger tissue regenerative processes. The therapy targets the short circuits that can occur in the nervous system's stimuli mechanisms to initiate cellular renewal that restabilizes the functionality of the apparatus and eliminates the dysfunction causing pain.
Let's see, then, how the therapy works and when it can be used.
Chelation therapy for heavy metal poisoning
The environment constantly exposes us, in various forms, to heavy metals. Today, it is not possible to exclude these substances from our context, but we must consider that this exposure may have contraindications. Some particularly dangerous situations can expose us to high quantities of heavy metals, requiring immediate medical intervention. The risk of acute heavy metal poisoning is mainly linked to environmental circumstances, often resulting from particular work contexts, while poisoning through food is rarer.
In general, metals such as lead, mercury, arsenic and cadmium, if accumulated in the body, can cause irreversible organic damage. Chelation therapy offers an effective solution to reduce toxicity levels and protect health.
Uses and functions of chelation therapy
Chelation therapy is a medical treatment used to lower the amounts of metals in the body, particularly lead, mercury, arsenic and cadmium. Initially developed in the 1940s, this technique has proven to be essential in managing acute metal poisoning and, subsequently, in treating cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases.
Let's explore how it works and which are the risks and the benefits associated with the therapy.
