The results of the study showed that impaired postural balance with a change in the state of
fascial chains and muscle hypertonicity, characteristic of chronic post-traumatic headache in the
occipital region and neck, are reflected in the indicators of osteopathic diagnostics and
electropunctural diagnostics.
On average, there is a normalization of the functional state of about 91% of all AK in
osteopathic treatment.
Statistical analysis shows a clear correspondence between the results of electroacupuncture
diagnostics in patients with chronic post-traumatic headache in the occipital region and neck before
and after the course of osteopathic treatment.
Key words: headache, osteopathic treatment, fascial chains, electropuncturediagnostics.
