Neuraltherapy is a form of treatment made using the bodys own neurovegetative system. It is based on using of local anesthesia to treat various diseases and pain in particular, through the peripheral and central vegetative nervous system. For this treatment, 0.5-1% procaine or lidocaine is used. Here, we present the case of a 69-year old male diagnosed periarthritis localized on left shoulder who was treated using neuraltherapy and aim to give information about this treatment method.
