The present study involved a total of 25 patients presenting with oesophageal achalasia who had undergone balloon cardiodilation. The complex of rehabilitative measures concluded the application of an ultrahigh-frequency electromagnetic fields (decimeter wave (DMW) therapy) to the collar region and general iodine bromide baths. The treatment resulted in the elimination of dysphagia syndrome during consumption of solid food in 80% of the patients. Simultaneously, the oesophagogastroscopic study revealed the improvement of the state of oesophageal mucosa. Moreover, the thyrotropin level was normalized. The positive effect of such rehabilitative treatment persisted during 6-8 months.
