and Discussion: Neural therapy is performed using the injection of local anaesthetics into scars, peripheral nerves, autonomic ganglia, trigger points, glands and other tissues. Treatment is based upon normalizing the dysfunctional autonomic nervous system, which initiates or propagates many chronic conditions. Neural therapy has been widely used by European physicians for over 50 years. Discussed within this article are theories of action relating to a dysfunctional autonomic nervous system and chronic pain.
