One of the most characteristic symptoms of discogenic osteochondrosis of the lumbosacral spine is considered to be the acute development of pain following the influence of some mechanical factor (for example, the concept of gravity, the inclination of the trunk, etc.).
X-ray signs of damage to the ligamentous apparatus of the spine have been proposed, which make it possible to concentrate specialists' attention on morphological disorders and to compare them with the clinical manifestations of trauma.
Rehabilitation treatment by means of physical rehabilitation is aimed at: excluding unfavorable static-dynamic loads on the affected spine, especially in the acute period of trauma / illness; an effect that stimulates the activity of both the fixation structures of the affected spine and the muscles surrounding the spine
When due to deterioration of the blood supply to the joints, the surrounding and fibrous cartilaginous tissue begins to pathologically change, in local therapy of these disorders it is recommended to apply ointment from osteochondrosis.
Osteochondrosis should always be treated in a comprehensive manner, as well as after a thorough examination of the patient by a vertebrologist and neurologist.

The initial position, which inhibits reflexes, is first given to large joints. Gradually, as many different variants of initial positions as possible inhibit reflexes are introduced. With the help of the reflex-inhibitory posture, a favorable background is created for learning active movements; the upbringing of the reaction to equilibrium is carried out by moving the center of gravity of the body when it is pushed by the methodologist in various directions.
A universally recognized method for treating osteochondrosis of the spine is complex therapy, which includes various means of physiotherapy and, in particular, massage. The experience of using massage in combination with drug therapy, physical factors, physical exercises has shown a significant role of this method in increasing the effectiveness of complex treatment of patients.
The target direction of rehabilitation and treatment measures in relation to the patient directly depends on the nature of the course of the process and its duration - accentuation of attention to the disease (pathomorphological substrata of acute manifestations) or on the patient itself (a set of sociosomatopsychic disorders in the individual).
Developing a special method of therapeutic gymnastics (LH) for various syndromes of cervical osteochondrosis should be based on the following considerations.
