Abstract. The article is devoted to one of the most pressing problems of neurology – neuropathy of peripheral nerves. Often, various diseases, especially those aggravated under the influence of psycho-emotional stress and other adverse psychosocial factors, are accompanied by long-term symptoms. Medicinal methods of treatment are not fully effective, so it is necessary to resort to non-medicinal technologies. Combined treatment of neuropathy of peripheral nerves by reflexotherapy methods has been used for a long time, mainly when there is a delay in the recovery of their functions, and first of all, their motor functions. Purpose. To consider the features of the use of reflexology by the method of "balancing hexagrams" in the complex rehabilitation of neuropathy of the radial nerve with a prolonged course. Scientific novelty. For the first time in our country, the method of making acupuncture prescriptions and acupuncture using the method of "balancing hexagrams" was used in the complex rehabilitation of neuropathy of the radial nerve with a prolonged course. Methods. We consider one clinical case of the use of reflexology using the method of "balancing hexagrams" in the complex rehabilitation of radial nerve neuropathy. The methods of clinical objective neurological examination, the method of syndromic diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine, the pulse diagnosis method, and the tongue diagnosis method were used. Results. As a result of treatment using the "balancing hexagrams" method, the patient's condition improved: first of all, the functions of the radial nerve improved, the trophic and motor activity of the muscles it innervates has improved. Conclusions. 1. Patients with neuropathy of the radial nerve with a prolonged course are seen in the practice of a neurologist and a reflexologist. 2. The use of the acupuncture method "balancing hexagrams" can be effective in the complex of treatment measures for neuropathy of the radial nerve with a prolonged course.
