| abstract |
Disclosed is a method of treating a subject suffering from a neurovegetative disorder, which comprises the step of applying to the brain of said subject, a therapeutically effective amount of an electrically induced energy capable of influencing the vegetative nervous system of the brain, the application of said energy being performed by placing a suitably adapted energy applicator in the mouth or endonasal cavity of the subject and energizing the applicator so that the brain and in particular the limbic system thereof receives electrically induced energy from the applicator. The electrically induced energy may consist of an electromagnetic wave of field energy, the energy produced by an electric current passing through the brain of said subject, and a combination of such energies. Apparatus for performing the method and including a generator of the electrically induced energy and the applicator is also disclosed. |
