Neural therapy is a holistic and regulatory therapeutic method. Injecting the local anaesthetic procaine into a specific part of the nervous system causes a brief numbing effect, which subsequently impacts the entire autonomic nervous system. This stimulates the body's self-regulation and self-healing powers, allowing the effect to persist beyond the duration of the anaesthetic. It is also assumed that "interference fields" located elsewhere—such as scars or damaged teeth—can trigger discomfort and pain via nerve pathways. In such cases, the anaesthetic procaine is also injected into the "interference fields" and their associated nerve pathways to resolve healing blockages.
Multiple treatments at intervals of at least one week are often required. The treatment is covered by health insurance.
Neural therapy: Gentle impulses for self-healing
Neural therapy is a gentle yet effective method for activating the body's self-healing powers. As a holistic form of therapy, it utilizes the nervous system to alleviate pain and restore impaired functions. In my practice, I use neural therapy in a targeted manner to treat a wide range of conditions and promote general well-being.
Areas of application for neural therapy
Neural therapy is suitable for a variety of complaints, including:
Course of treatment
The treatment begins with a detailed consultation in which I carefully record your symptoms and medical history. I then select the appropriate injection sites and administer targeted injections. The treatment is generally well-tolerated, and the effects are often noticeable after just a few sessions. Depending on the clinical picture and individual needs, neural therapy can be used as a stand-alone therapy or in combination with other procedures. In some cases, multiple sessions at intervals of 1–2 weeks are necessary to achieve lasting improvement. The treatment is covered by health insurance.

Areas of application for neural therapy
Neural therapy is suitable for a variety of complaints, including:
- Chronic and acute pain: Back and joint pain, migraines, tension headaches.
- Scar-related issues: Treatment of scars that act as an interference field and cause discomfort.
- Muscular tension: Alleviation of muscle tightness and restricted movement.
- Functional complaints: Treatment of digestive problems, sleep disorders, or menstrual and other hormonal issues, as well as inflammation such as cystitis, prostatitis, and sinusitis.

Frequently asked questions about neural therapy
Neural therapy is a holistic regulatory method. The local anaesthetic procaine is injected into specific sites to briefly anaesthetise the nervous system, regulate the autonomic nervous system, and activate the body's self-healing powers, with effects that persist beyond the duration of the anaesthesia itself.
The therapy can help with a wide range of conditions, including:
- Chronic and acute pain: Back and joint pain, migraines, and tension headaches.
- Scar-related issues: Treatment of scars acting as interference fields that cause discomfort.
- Muscular tension: Alleviation of muscle tightness and restricted movement.
- Functional complaints: Digestive issues, sleep disorders, menstrual or other hormonal symptoms, as well as chronic inflammation such as cystitis, prostatitis, or sinusitis.
Following a comprehensive anamnesis consultation, the injections are administered. Often, the effect is noticeable after just a few sessions. However, for sustainable improvement, multiple treatments at intervals of approximately one to two weeks are generally required.
Yes, neural therapy is a recognized method with treatment costs covered by health insurance. Furthermore, it is considered particularly well-tolerated with a low risk of side effects.
