[Results of ambulant treatment of vertebral syndromes (author's transl)].

Summary of a Dissertation worked out in a General Medical Practice: 255 patients with vertebral conditions were investigated in a medium-sized general practice on the edge of an industrial town. The treatment and therapeutic results were observed over 2 years. The complaints included pains in the head and neck, shoulder-arm syndrome, back and low back pains including sciatica and sensitivity disorders. The therapeutic results revealed that the general medical practice is in a position to treat vertebral conditions satisfactorily with a minimum of expenditure if the treatment is multicentric and individually designed after a previous exact diagnosis and carried out over the long term if necessary.
