Vegetovascular dystonia is a consequence of dysfunction of the nervous system, leading to an imbalance in the work of almost all vital processes of the body. Each person has his own mental and physical characteristics, and therefore the treatment of dystonia can be different for everyone: someone easily copes with unpleasant symptoms and recovers, others cannot get rid of it for a long time, even with appropriate measures. In the second case, prolonged interruptions negatively affect health: VSD can lead to hypertension with all the ensuing consequences.
In this regard, this disease must be treated, and first of all, correction is necessary for the psyche of a sick person. Doctors and psychologists unanimously say that psycho-emotional shocks, stress, nervous tension and psychological trauma lead to such a diagnosis. The body fails, being in a stressful situation for a long time and experiencing negative emotions. Therefore, we can safely say that VSD refers to reversible mental deviations from the norm, and its treatment consists in the normalization and stabilization of the mental state. These methods are:
- Optimal schedule: eight hours of sleep, normal working hours and good rest. Many patients experience an improvement in their well-being after following this recommendation.
- Sedatives will also help the patient to stabilize the nervous system faster. In this case, everyone must decide for himself which drugs are more suitable for him: for those whose symptoms are more or less weakly expressed, softer sedatives, for example, tincture of valerian or motherwort, are suitable. Where the picture is more vivid, the doctor may prescribe tranquilizers and antidepressants.
- Water treatments are considered the best friend of the autonomic nervous system. Contrast showers, warm herbal baths, swimming and other water treatments can work wonders.
- Normalized sports activities perfectly relieve muscle tension, are a source of the hormone of joy, and relieve an overloaded psyche. Therefore, classes 2-3 times a week in yoga, Pilates, swimming, light jogging or just walking are shown to people with hypertensive type of VSD.
- Meditation, hypnosis and auto-training will be a good help in treatment, which will help to tune in to a positive wave, be less nervous and increase stress resistance.
- And the last thing that needs to be done in the treatment of dystonia is to give up bad habits, coffee drinks and tea.
For best results, the above recommendations are best done in combination. And also each person can come up with additional ways to relax and unwind.
