Objectives The purpose of this study was to review the studies of domestic fascia manual treatment and suggestion for development direction. Methods Derive research questions using the scoping review methodology. Searching for related studies, the studies were selected, and the data were analyzed and reported. We searched domestic database for studies on fascia manual treatment reported till 2023. We reviewed 770 studies and 28 studies were selected. Results Of the total 28 studies, 1 literature study, 7 case reports, and 20 interventional studies. literature study was to assess the effect of fascia chuna therapy in the treatment of piriformis syndrome. Among the 7 case reports were conducted on patients with scoliosis, achilles tendinitis, plantar fasciitis, acute strain injury and meralgia paresthetica. Among the 20 intervention studies, 10 were single group studies. The remaining 10 studies were parallel design studies. Background diseases in the group included cervical pain, scoliosis, tension headache, and whiplash injury. Among the 7 case studies, the types of techniques used were used alone or in combination: MFR(Myofascial Release) was used in 5, fascia chuna therapy was used in 4, and Graston Technique was used in 1. In the 20 intervention studies, the most frequently used manual therapy was MFR in 14 cases, FDM(Fascial Distortion Model) in 6 studies, joint mobilization in 2 studies, foam roller in 2 studies, soft tissue mobilization in 1 study, and Self Myofascial Release in 1 study each. Conclusions Since myofascial pain syndrome was introduced in South of Korea in the 1990s, it has developed from the concept of fascia in a narrow sense(Myofascia) to the concept of fascia in a broad sense(Fascia), and the fascia technique has changed from the mainstream MFR technique to research into new fascia techniques such as FDM in recent years. In the future, discussions on extensive research and technique development are needed in the field of Korean Traditional Medicine.

Objectives The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of fascia chuna therapy in the treatment of piriformis syndrome. Methods A literature search was conducted using 8 databases to identify all randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) that investigated fascia chuna therapy as a treatment for piriformis syndrome. The selected studies are analyzed the risk of bias through Cochrane risk of bias tool. Results Among 37 articles that were searched, 3 RCTs met our inclusion criteria and were included in this analysis. These studies demonstrated positive results of Fascia Chuna Therapy with respect to the reduction of pain scale and functional scale compared with other treatment methods. Conclusions Based on results, fascia chuna therapy could be effective in piriformis syndrome. However there are limitations that the number of selected studies was small and risk of bias was unclear. More well-designed RCTs are required to provide clearer evidence.

Objectives : The aim of this study is to analyze the actual investigation and classification of osteopathic manipulation by investigation of the various literature of the inside and outside of the country, and to present the application plan of osteopathy in chuna manual therapy for meridian sinew system. Methods : I referred to the domestic and foreign books about osteopathy and chiropractic. In order to investigate domestic dissertations, I searched 4 Korean medical databases and 4 Korean medical journals of osteopathy. Search terms used were osteopathy, osteopathic, fascia, proprioreceptor, mechanoreceptor, muscle spindle, golgi tendon organ, osteopathic manipulation technics. And I classified all the searched studies into principle and region and etc. In order to investigate foreign dissertations, I search 'NCBI pubmed'. Search terms used were osteopathy, osteopathic technique, osteopathic manipulative technique. Results : 1. Osteopathy do not regard the systems which compose the human body in individual territory, but regard whole. It is diagnosis, prevention and medicine which treats 2. Osteopathic manipulation techniques are classified into direct techniques, indirect techniques, and compound techniques. 3. Osteopathic manipulation techniques are classified into fascia, muscle, ligament-joint in applied region. 4. I could search clinical cases in domestic and foreign study. I found cases about myofascial release technique(MFR), postisometric relaxation(PIR), proprioceptive neuromuscular fascilitation(PNF), muscle energy technique(MET), joint mobilization in domestic studies, and strain-counterstrain technique(SCS), MET, AK in foreign studies. Conclusions : Osteopathic manipulation techniques can be used in diagnosis and treatment of meridian muscle theory, because osteopathy and the oriental medicine have many similarities in theoretical background. So osteopathic manipulation technique can be useful in oriental medicine treatment techniques.
