Abstract

This case is witten for presenting the effect of the yin-yang balancing therapy using the TMJ balancing appliance which normalizes the yin and yang balance of the brain-nervous system including the Meridian system. The balancing appliance was used in patient with fibromyalgia syndrome, and clinical outcome measurements were performed through clinical observations in specific movement and actions. The patient displayed positive changes after the treatment and the effect was well-maintained during the treatment period. For the more precise evaluation, clinical and biological studies of temporomadibular balancing therapy (TBT) are needed.

본 증례에서는 섬유근통 증후군을 진단받고 마약성 진통제와 링겔, 패치 등을 다년간 지속적으로 투여받은 환자에게서 한의학적 치료인 턱관절음양균형요법으로 유의한 효과를 얻어 보고하는 바이다.
