Objective: to evaluate the efficiency of the neuromodulation methods and to determine their role in complex rehabilitation of patients with spastic syndromes after spinal cord injury. Material and methods: Based on the study and treatment of 105 patients with spastic syndromes after injury of the spinal cord, electrical stimulation of the spinal cord, epidural drug therapy in combination with electrical nerve stimulation and local hypothermia spinal cord have been consistently applied for the treatment of spastic syndrome. Results: Consistent use of methods of neuromodulation in patients with spastic syndromes after spinal cord injuries are given in 88,6% of cases to obtain positive results. Conclusion: The obtained results allow to estimate efficiency of neuromodulation methods and to determine their role in complex rehabilitation of patients with spastic syndromes after spinal cord injury
