Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical effects of Embedding Therapy for Ramsay Hunt syndrome. Methods: 5 patients with Ramsay Hunt syndrome were treated with Embedding therapy. It was performed once a day, once a week. 15~20 Embedding threads were used in each Embedding treatment. The total number of Embedding therapy treatments was 4 or 8. To evaluate the effects of Embedding therapy, we analyzed Yanagihara's score and House-Brackmann scale Results: In case 1, After treatment the Yanagihara's score was changed from 3 to 7 and the House-Brackmann scale was changed from VI to V. In case 2, After treatment the Yanagihara's score was changed from 12 to 33 and the House-Brackmann scale was changed from IV to I. In case 3, After treatment the Yanagihara's score was changed from 3 to 9 and the House-Brackmann scale was changed from VI to V. In case 4, After treatment the Yanagihara's score was changed from 22 to 32 and the House-Brackmann scale was changed from III to I. In case 5, After treatment the Yanagihara's score was changed from 23 to 37 and the House-Brackmann scale was changed from III to I. Conclusion: Embedding Therapy is effective for improve the symptoms of Ramsay Hunt syndrom. Therefore, it will be used to treat Ramsay Hunt syndrome.
