This study was designed to elucidate mechanisms underlying normalization of vegetative regulation of the cardiovascular function by a combined treatment including magnetopuncture, phytoaeroinotherapy, soft-tissue manual therapy, and graded physical exercises in young subjects presenting with psychovegetative syndrome and sympaticotonia. It was shown that beneficial effect of the above treatment on vegetative characteristics of the cardiovascular system is largely due to a few key factors responsible for normalization of the functional and dynamic state of the body's meridional system, optimization of central regulation of circulation, correction of excessive sympathetic activation, and improvement of protective vagal control over cardiac function. These findings confirm the possibility of corrective intervention into the central mechanisms of cardiovascular homeostasis mediated through the body's meridonal system.
