Abstract

Objective : This study is designed to evaluate the clinical effect of the oriental medical treatment (Ex: chuna, physical theraphy, acupuncture, moxibustion, herb medicine, etc.) on patient of scoliosis. Methods : We investigated 12 patients with scoliosis who visited to Department of Acupunture & Moxibustion, Tae gu Oriental Hopital of Kyung San University from January 2000 to September. 12 patients had a diagnosis of scoliosis by X-ray. We treated 12 patients by the oriental medical treatment (Ex: chuna, acupuncture, physical theraphy, moxibustion, herb medicine, etc.)and they were evaluated with post treatment X-ray findings. Results : 1. We investigated 6 female and 6 male patients. The most commom distribution of age was 30's. 2. In the scoliosis angle : before treatment, the average scoliosis angle was $13.56^{\circ}$ but after treatment, it was decreased to $9.31^{\circ}$ and the mean correctability was 33.47%. 3. The more servious the symptoms were, the lesser the correction rate was. It was decreased in the order of Gr I, Gr II, Gr III and Gr IV. 4. The larger the scoliosis angle and the degree of rotation were, the lesser the correction rate was. Conclusion : These results suggest that the oriental medical treatment (Ex: chuna, acupuncture, physical theraphy, moxibustion, herb medicine, etc.) was effective treatment modality on patient of scoliosis.
