Popis: The objectives of the study was to enhance the effectiveness of the rehabilitation of the patients who have undergone the surgical intervention on the herniated intervertebral discs in the lumbosacral spine with the use of general magnetic therapy during their combined treatment. A total of 67 patients were available for the medical examination and treatment. The patients presenting with similar clinical symptoms were allocated to two groups matched for age and gender. All of them received initial therapy including medication, kinetic physical therapy, and hydrokinesitherapy. The patients of the main study group were additionally given magnetic therapy while those in the control group were treated without additional therapy. It has been shown that the introduction of general magnetic therapy into the program of the combined treatment exerts the beneficial influence on the main clinical symptoms of the disease, intensifies the regeneration processes, and improves blood circulation in the surgical intervention region; moreover, it improves the psychoemotional condition and the quality of life in this category of the patients.
