본 연구는 산림치유를 불교적 관점에서 분석하여 그 효과를 향상시키는데 목적이 있다. 숲은 어떤 종교보다도 불교와 깊은 인연과 밀접한 관계를 맺고 있다. 붓다의 일생은 숲과 나무와 이어져 있으며, 이는 숲의 영성적 본질과 역할에 기인한다. 치유(治癒)란 심신(心身)의 고통문제를 다루는 것으로 불교에서는 실천수행법을 통해서 해결한다. 감각제어에 대한 생각, 탐욕, 좋지 않는 감정 등 망상이 일어나는 현상을 정확하게 이해함으로써 불필요한 자극이나 외부대상을 추구하려는 욕망에서 벗어나게 해준다. 인간은 아름다운 자연경관 속에서 오감(五感)을 통해 감각기관상의 쾌적함과 즐거움을 얻을 수 있으며, 마음의 안정을 찾게 된다. 산림(숲)에 들어가면 오감의 작동으로 제 6 의식(意識)이 망상(妄想)을 자라지 못하도록 하는 좋은 환경들이 숲속에 들어있기 때문이다. 본 연구는 산림이라는 자연 환경적 치유인자와 불교이론에 근거한 효과를 선행연구를 토대로 분석한 예비연구다. 불교가 산림치유에 미치는 치유효과를 극대화할 수 있는지를 고찰한 결과, 기존 산림치유기법과 더불어 활성화에 기여할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 그 효과성 검증은 차후 실험연구 등을 통한 후속연구과제로 남겨두고 본 연구가 산림치유효과의 활성화에 기여할 수 있기를 기대한다.

Cassia fistula commonly known as Sundali was selected to evaluate its wound healing potentials based on traditional use and literature references. Methanol extract of C. fistula leaves were examined for its wound healing property in the form of an ointment in two types of wound models in rats: i) Excision wound model and ii) Incision wound model. The ointment of the leaf extract of two different concentrations (5% and 10% w/w ointment of leaves extract in simple ointment base) responded significantly in both models of wounds tested. The results were also comparable to that of standard drug, nitrofurazone in terms of wound contraction ability, epithelisation period, tensile strength and regeneration of tissue at wound area.

Natural Medicine is a medical system that tries to find the cause and cure of the disease in the nature emphasizing on natural healing power of human body. The most important value of traditional medicine in east Asia lies on the fact that this medicine is a medical culture and natural medicine that was selected by instinct and human nature reflecting the best possible remedy by the wisdom of evolution, and views the living phenomenon based on relation and circulation. This medicine is a natural medicine that tries to recover and promote the natural healing power by vitality and is a system that cumulates various empirical information about unique and complicated life phenomenon as a legacy of evolution in the body and the disease. The understanding of variation and adaptation of human species should be based on thorough knowledge of origin, instinct and nature of human as well as knowledge of survival and adaptation of human and environment based on evolution. And through this insight, the prevention and treatment of modern diseases should be developed. In this regards, traditional medicine in east Asia should be highlighted again as a study on adaptation and harmony of penetrating the cultural history of mind which has led the history of biological body and change of society and culture, and the repository of practical wisdom and knowledge.

For the elderly with declining sensory due to aging, various sense stimulation factors provided in indoor environment is desirable healing environment. This study aims to propose the direction of sensory healing environment by adapting the richness of natural environment in indoor place based on the biophilic design theory with implementation method of sensory richness environment. The healing environment was limited to the ward in the beginning, but it has widened its range to the whole place, and the lobby is considered quiet important to healing. Therefore, this study selected lobby space of geriatric hospital as study subject. As for the study method, we deducted the analytic matrix focusing on the property and elements of the direct and indirect experience of nature appearing in the biophilic design theory, and analyzed the field investigation of subject space. Also, this study paid attention to point where the hotel lobby leads the change of emotional environment, and conducted analysis and comparison by deciding this is what the hotel and geriatric hospital should direct to. As the result, the biophilic design factor of hotel is actively expressed by complex direction of various factors, but as for the geriatric hospital, it was rather passive and simple in expression. The adaptation ratio between hotel and geriatric hospital was almost more than twice times difference in average.

There are more and more citizens suffering from severe fatigue, and they wish to escape from it and spend their leisure time for healing. As a result, buildings and complexes are being constructed nationwide with healing as their theme. Particularly, they tend to build facilities with concepts like a spa, beauty, healing, meditation, nature, or forest healing. The purpose of this study is to examine the concept of healing environment and the nationwide tendencies of building facilities with healing as their theme and also investigate the planning characteristics of complexes and architecture with three representative complexes as examples. Complexes intended for healing have immersion into nature being freed from one's routine as their concept. When planning the flow of human traffic within the complexes, they try to obtain the autonomy of choice as well as the diversity of space and experiential factors in order to provide opportunities for experiencing nature. In the complexes selected for a case study here, they have planned the factors of physical environment that are associated with one another based on architectural education programs using red clay, programs specializing poetry, and healing programs using food. Typically, this is centered around outdoor experiential space, indoor meditation and education space, or fitness space. Also, it is characterized by the planning of physical environment and the complex operation of programs. Particularly, public space is divided into communal space, resting space, and health and treatment space, and health/resting space is mainly intended for health and exercise, for example, fitness, spas, or jjimjilbang (Korean dry saunas). Also, it is characterized by the planning of pitched roofs harmonized with nature and also facade planning that can positively adopt the factors of natural environment.

Majority of the seniors living in nursing homes suffer from persistent chronic pain, which may cause depression and compromised quality of life if untreated. The environment should support them to lift their focus from current pain and worries to the positive feelings and the delight of life. The purpose of this research is to classify the healing environment elements for positive distraction, and analyze 6 international cases to see the current situation. The elements were categorized as follows, based on literature review from both healing spaces and elderly care field: spatial elements(view, natural elements, artificial elements, exercise space, garden), psychological elements(grooming area, space for privacy, meal/drink area, elements for recollection, religious space), social elements(common living area, activity/hoppy room, family/visitor area, information area, local community program space). Analysis on 6 facilities showed that each elements were reflected to designed relatively well. New inventions from workers who think distraction is important were also introduced. Healing environment for positive distraction requires delicate touch, derived from understanding characteristics and situation of the residing elderly individuals. Technology update is also significant, from audio books to virtual reality devices, since cultural life of nursing home is far behind from what the others enjoy now.

과거 병원은 치료만 목적으로 하여 최소한의 공용공간을 확보하여 계획되었지만, 현대 병원은 치유환경의 중요성이 높아지면서 공용공간이 늘어나고, 환자와 보호자와 의료진을 고려하여 계획된다. 또한 로비형태가 홀형에서 발전하여 스트리트형이나 컨코스형으로 계획되면서 공용면적이 증가했다. 과거병원과 다르게 접수, 대기, 수속공간에서 발전하여 현대병원은 상업,취미,문화공간으로 사용된다. 본 연구의 목적은 종합병원의 치유환경 요소를 선행연구에서 도출하여 치유환경 평가방법을 분석의 틀로 세워, 병원 로비공간의 치유환경을 로비 평면형태를 중심으로 분석, 평가한다. 병원 로비는 여러 행위가 이루어지는 중요한 공간으로, 병원 로비 평면타입별 각 3개의 사례를 비교분석한다. 연구의 결과로 스트리트형이 홀형보다 로비치유환경이 더 좋은 것으로 나타났지만 접근성, 옥상정원, 휴게공간의 분석결과는 비슷하다. 이는 사례대상이 대형종합병원이기에 충분한 공간이 계획되어 로비형태와 크게 관련 없는 요소로 사료된다. 스트리트형 중에서도 아트리움이 선형인 사례가 4면형 아트리움보다 오픈체적비가 크기에 로비의 공간감과 자연채광 유입효과가 크다. 또 로비평면이 홀형일 때, 단면이 중정형이면 오픈체적비가 큰 것을 보아 로비의 평면 형태도 중요하지만, 단면형태도 중요한 것으로 분석된다.
