Overview
The article summarizes current knowledge regarding the application of combination treatment (KT). It describes the neurophysiological aspects and application parameters of this method of physical therapy. To ensure efficiency and correct indication of KT, it is necessary to abide by the etiopathogenesis of reflex changes and the significance of their protective function. The authors state the most common types of reflex changes, their localisations suitable for KT treatment, and further on the benefits, as well as drawbacks, of this method, which must be taken into account while it is being indicated.
