Objectives : This study is to determine the effects of magnetics therapy on the relief of premenstrual syndrome and dysmenorrhea among female college students. Methods : 20 female college students in a university are selected to the experimental group. All of the subjects have the score of more than 6 on the visual analogue scale for measuring the level of premenstrual pain. The data was collected by using questionnaires. The magnetics therapy on the Dong Shi Acupuncture Therapy extra points (婦科, 還巢, 木婦, 門金) was administered to the experimental group. Results : The results were as follows. The first hypothesis is supported ; the experimental group who received magnetics therapy on the Dong Shi Acupuncture will decrease premenstrual syndrome. The second hypothesis is supported ; the experimental group who received magnetics therapy on the Dong Shi Acupuncture will decrease dysmenorrhea.

Objectives : The aim of this study was to show the application to add the Dong-Qi therapy of the Dong-Si acupuncture to exercise therapy of the movement system impairment syndrome(MSIS) and to determine the best acupuncture point for the Dong-Qi therapy. Methods : We reviewed Diagnosis and Treatment of Movement Impairment Syndrome and Movement System Impairment Syndromes Of The Extremities, Cervical and Thoracic Spines written by Sahrmann SA. to show the exercise therapy of the sort of MSIS. We reviewed complete works of Yang Wei Jie to show the acupuncture points of the Dong-Si acupuncture and the Dong-Qi therapy. Results : We showed the acupuncture point of the Dong-Si acupuncture by each type of MSIS based on the reference book of MSIS, the Dong-Si acupuncture. Also, we selected and tabulated the best possible acupuncture point of the Dong-Si acupuncture which could minimize a side effect of acupuncture during the therapeutic exercise by each type of MSIS. Conclusion : A specific acupuncture point of the Dong-Si acupuncture could be chosen for a specific MSIS therapeutic exercise. The best possible acupuncture point could be chosen when selecting an acupuncture point of the Dong-Si acupuncture.

Objective : The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of tong's acupuncture on recovery of motor disorders in stroke patients. Methods : Twenty two patients with poststroke-hemiplegia were randomized into two groups. Ten patients(test group) treated by 2 methods-tong's acupuncture and body acupuncture. The other twelve patients(control group) treated only by body acupuncture. The activity of daily living was measured with a National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NlHSS) and Modified Barthel Index(MBI). The therapy was performed one a day for 2 weeks. Results: In terms of score of NIHSS. the test group showed statistically meaningful decrease after 2 week treatment. but the control group showed statistically meaningful decrease after I week(p<0.05). And in terms of score of MBI. the test group showed statistically meaningful increase after 2 week treatment. but the control group showed statistically meaningful increase after I week(p<0.05). There was no statistically meaningful difference after 1 and 2 week treatment between the groups. Conclusions: These results support that test group has almost same effectness compared with control group in improvement of the activity of daily living of poststroke-hemiplegic patients.

Methods : This study has been carried out for 60 cases of ankle sprain patients who have visited Dong-Seo Oriental medical Hospital from May 1, 2002 to September 30, 2002. We have treated 30 cases of them by Dong-si acupuncture therapy and the other 30 cases by General acupuncture therapy. And we have compared those two group. Results : 1. There was no significant difference at the treatment period and the number of treatment times in comparing two groups. 2. The number of treatment times for good effect is that : Dong-si took $1.57{\pm}0.85$ times and General acupuncture therapy took $2.15{\pm}0.96$ times. And we have found that the effect of Dong-si acupuncture therapy is faster than the other.

목적 : 본 연구는 음허로 인한 야간발열 환자 2명에 대한 동씨침의 영골 및 대백혈의 치료효과를 알아보고, 이를 경락학적으로 고찰하는데 목적이 있다. 방법 : 음허로 진단된 2명의 환자를 대상으로 영골 및 대백혈에 침 치료를 시행하고, 15분 간 유침하였으며, 치료 전 후에 체온과 맥박을 측정하고, 구갈에 관한 NRS를 치료전에 측정하였다. 결과 : 영골 및 대백혈 자침 1시간 후 체온이 두명의 환자 모두 정상범위로 하강하였으며, Case 1의 경우는 영골 및 대백혈 자침치료를 시작한지 13일후, Case 2의 경우에는 14일 후에 야간발열 증상이 소실되었다. 11 pm에 측정한 맥박수는 Case 1에서 침 치료 시작 전 평균 82.6에서 치료 기간 중에는 75.2, 치료 후 74.8로 변화하였고, Case 2에서는 침 치료 시작전 평균 83.5에서 치료 기간 중에는 78.5, 치료 후 74.3으로 변화하였다. NRS는 Case 1에서 치료 전 평균 4.2에서 치료 기간 중에는 3.2, 치료 후 1.7로 감소하였으나 Case 2에서는 치료 전 평균 3.3에서 치료 기간 중에는 2.3, 치료 후 2.4로 변화하였다. 결론 : 두 가지 Case에서 영골 및 대백혈 자침은 발열증상을 완화하는데 효과적이었다. 이는 영골 및 대백혈이 수양명대장경의 경락 및 경근이 분포하는 영역에 위치하고 있기 때문에 수양명대장경의 열성병 치료효과와 대장주진의 생리학적 관점에서 고찰해 볼 수 있으며, 앞으로 이와 관련한 체계적이고 다양한 연구가 필요하리라 사료된다.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to present clinical utility of therapeutic exercise on the neck and shoulder parts based on the movement system impairment syndrome(MSIS) as Dong-Qi therapy of the Dong-Si Acupuncture and was to examine which Dong-Si acupoints were most effective and non-invasive when performing therapeutic exercise of the MSIS. Methods : Totally eight therapeutic exercises correspondent to eight neck and shoulder MSIS were summarized and tabulated from the Diagnosis and Treatment of Movement Impairment Syndrome and Movement System Impairment Syndromes Of The Extremities, Cervical and Thoracic Spines by Sahrmann SA. Together with the MSIS summaries, acupuncture points and Dong-Qi therapy were summarized and tabulated from Yangweijiequanji 1 and Yangweijiequanji 2 by Yangweijie. According to the posture and movement of the MSIS exercise, effective and non-invasive acupoints were selected. Thereafter, clinical pilot study which five normal volunteers participated in were performed to examine whether these acupoints resulted in any side effects of acupuncture therapy such as pain and distortion of the needle during the MSIS exercises. Results : Through clinical pilot study, ZhongZi, ZhongXian, ZhengJin, ZhengZong and MuLiu in a sitting position, and HuaGuYi, ZhongZi and ZhongXian in a supine position were finally determined as safe and non-invasive Dong-Si acupoints to treat cervical pain. In terms of shoulder pain, ZuQianJin, ZuWuJin, HuaGuEr and JianZhong in a supine position, SiHuaZhong, ZuQianJin, ZuWuJin, QuLing, JianZhong, ShenGuan and JiuLi in a standing position, and ZuQianJin, ZuWuJin, HuaGuEr, QuLing and JianZhong in a prone position were finally accepted as safe and non-invasive Dong-Si acupoints.

Objectives : To observe the effect of acupuncture treatment in chronic shoulder pain patients. Methods : 36 voluntary patients were randomly assigned to an acupuncture treatment group(E Group, n=18) and a control group(C Group, n=18). The E Group patients received acupuncture treatment on $LI_{15}$, $TE_{14}$, $GB_{21}$ and Master Dong's acupuncture points, Shin-gwan and Gyun-joong, twice a week for four weeks. The C Group patients received no treatment. All patients in both groups were instructed to practise self exercise in their daily lives. Evaluations were made at baseline and after four weeks of study. The Constant Shoulder Assessment(CSA), Shoulder Pain and Disability Index(SPADI) and the patient's subjective pain was measured by Visual Analogue Scale(VAS). The obtained data was analyzed. Results : The E Group showed significant(p<0.05) improvement in CSA, SPADI and VAS after four weeks of treatment. The C Group showed significant(p<0.05) improvement in CSA, but the change of SPADI and VAS was insignificant(p>0.05). CSA and SPADI of E Group significantly(p<0.05) improved compared to the C Group, but the difference of VAS change in the two groups was insignificant(p>0.05). Conclusions : Four weeks of acupuncture treatment significantly improved CSA, SPADI and VAS. The improvement of CSA and SPADI was significant(p<0.05) compared to untreated patients.
