Abstract

Objective : The purpose of this report is to examine the effects of Scalp Acupuncture therapy in the H.I.V.D patients. Methods : We investigated 30 patients suffering from low back pain with sciatica which were admitted to Cheonan O. M. hospital from Aug. 1, 2001 to Jan. 31. 2002. 30 patients had a diagnosis of herniated lumbar intervertebral disc by Lumbar-C.T or Lumbar-M.R.I. we treated 30 patients by Scalp Acupuncture therapy. Results : 1. We operated Scalp Acupuncture on the foot-motion sensory area(족운동감각구), the sensory area(감각구) 2. In the result of treatment due to clinical symptoms, leg radiating pain was more effective than any other clinical symptoms. 3. The efficacy of Scalp Acupuncture therapy was 83.3%(when we set a standard things more than fair) and 63.3%(when we set a standard things more than good). Conclusions: The Scalp Acupuncture therapy is effective of H.I.V.D patients, but we thought that it needed to prove effects of Scalp Acupuncture therapy for efficient application by more clinical reports.
