[The possibilities for correcting interhemispheric EEG asymmetry during reflexotherapy of depressive states with pain syndromes]. 1988

O I Koëkina, and A M Gaĭdamakina, and R P Volkova

The work deals with the signs of interhemispheric EEG asymmetry in depressions with pain syndromes. Reflex therapeutic techniques proved capable of achieving a functional correction of EEG asymmetry indices in the somatosensory cortex. The authors believe that reflex therapeutic influence on the central mechanisms of depressions ensures a pathogenic approach to the treatment.
