Objectives : This study was investigated to the relationship ayurvedic constitution and each skin hydration and pH. Methods : The questionaire survey and skin analysis of female students attending university located in Chugnam was carried out in order to assess skin types according to ayurvedic constituion such as vata, pitta and kapha. Data analysis were used describe statistics, ANOVA in Duncan's multiple comparative test and Pearson's correlation by SPSS. Skin hydration and pH was measured by Corneometer and skin-pH meter. Results : The results of this study are as follows. First, in terms of knowledge of ayurvedic constitutional types most students are not aware of that. Second, the most common constitution in the ayurveda medical system was pitta. Third, in the analysis of skin type by constitution of ayurveda, vata had dry skin while pitta and kapha tended to have more combination skin. However, this result didn't show any statistically significant difference either. Forth, the analysis of skin tone by constitution of ayurveda showed that vata was white, and pitta and kapha were just average. Discussion and Conclusion : The results of this study was shown that the difference between Korean and Indian, so we should develop effective diagnosis tool for Korean people. In the future, we expect that ayurvedic skin and body program developed by this study spread and practical use at esthetic industry and domain of esthetics in Korea.

본 논문은 89명의 여대생을 대상으로 아유르베다의 세 가지 체질인 바타, 피타, 카파에 따른 얼굴 피부의 수분, 유분, pH의 값을 측정하여 비교하였다. 아유르베다 체질에 따른 피부 상태를 알아보기 위하여 분석한 결과 수분의 경우 피타, 카파, 바타의 순으로(p<0.001) 유분의 경우 카파, 피타, 바타의 순으로 (p<0.001, p<0.01) pH의 경우 카파, 피타, 바타의 순으로 (p<0.01) 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다. 앞으로의 연구에서는 피부미용학적 관점에서 아유르베다 체질에 대한 보다 체계적이고 과학적인 연구가 진행되어야 할 것이다.

This study examined the efficacy of restraining the increase of the bacteria colony of scalp according to the application of the Ayurvedic base oils and essential oils to scalp and hair. The result is as follows. The experiment illustrated that as the result of doing the paired sample t-test of a treated group and a control group according to constitutional oiling, the efficacy of the statistically significant decrease of the colony manifested in six tested groups except the group of Pitta constitution to which sesame and lavender were applied. Also, in a group that sesame was applied to Vata constitution and a group that coconut and lavender were applied to Pitta constitution, according to the passage of time, the result of being reduced the number of the colony was obtained and it showed that the oiling suitable for each constitution has the efficacy to decrease the colony of scalp. At the same time, regardless of the constitutions, the application of oils also showed the efficacy of restraining the increase of the bacteria colony of scalp. As the result of performing Paired Sample t-test for the subjective evaluation of the subjects in pre and post clinical testing, In the analysis of questionnaire that were obtained before and after the clinical testing, the results of all of the items except the item questioning a degree of inflammation appeared to be significant. That is to say, the subjects answered that a degree of keratin or a pain in scalp, an amount of sebum and a degree of hair damage were decreased after the application of oil more than before it. And in the question of a degree of hair damage, the application of oils were proved as having the efficacy to improve the hair damage.

전통의학의 체질론은 현대의학과는 구분되는 특성으로, 사상의학은 건강유지의 관점을 폐비간신(肺脾肝腎)의 기능적 강약(强弱)으로 구분하여 인체 장부(臟腑)의 체질에 따른 기능적 균형이 어떠한 조건에서 불균형이 되는 상태를 병의 주요한 요인으로 파악하였다. 아유르베다는 우리 몸에 존재하는 3개 "도샤(Dosha)'의 균형을 건강 유지의 기본으로 생각하고 질병이 생기는 이유를 체내 에너지 조절 기능을 하는 바따(Vata), 신진대사와 소화 기능을 담당하는 삣타(Pitha), 체온조절 기능을 담당하는 카파(Kapha)의 균형이 깨어졌기 때문으로 보았고 세가지 도샤(tridosha)가 균형을 맞추면 스스로 치유된다고 하였다. 체질에 따른 질병의 특징과 경향을 알아 치료에 접근하고 일상생활의 건강관리까지 포함하고 있는 두 이론은 각 개인의 특성과 독립적이고 자율적인 생활습관이 중시되는 현대사회에서 일상 생활 건강 유지 및 예방을 위해 다양한 예방 치료법의 융합영역으로 해석될 수 있다고 생각된다. 본 연구에서는 사상 의학과 아유르베다 이론을 체질 관점에서 비교 분석하여 환자의 치유력과 회복력에 도움이 되고, 환자의 만족도 증가를 위한 체질 기반 개념을 이해하고 예방 의료분야에 있어서의 활용의 다양성에 대해 도움이 되고자 한다.

Nowadays, this Ayurveda is coming to be accommodated and executed partially in various fields, with the name 'an alterative medicine', not only in the medical treatment territory but also in the beauty care territory. In this way, under the basic rules of the harmony with nature, we have investigated several documents with a view to grasp Ayurveda's principles which are being applied to skin beauty care and to indicate the accurate grounds and directions. However, there were not many data which have been verified scientifically yet, so we had many difficulties researching it. From now, It is thought that we need much research about more objective data and clinical aspects. As the result of this research, according to Ayurveda, it is the principles of Ayurveda that we all are governed by three kinds of Dosha which are called Vata, Pitta, Kapha and when their balance is broken up. we get diseases physically or mentally. That is, we need the aquisition following each physical constitution, in order for this principle to approach to the field of skin beauty care. Futhermore, it is expected that we will be able to improve much more effects by managing so as to follow each own's physical constitution.

이 연구는 한국형 아유르베다 체질을 측정할 수 있는 도구를 개발하기 위한 기초 작업으로 검사지의 신뢰도와 타당성을 검증하는 것이다. 각 대상자는 63문항에 대하여 자기-기입식 설문지를 작성하였다. 아유르베다 체질을 7체질로 개념화하고 우선 271명을 대상으로 실시한 체질 검사의 신체 특성인 41문항에 대한 내적 일관성 신뢰도(Cronbach's ${\alpha}$)는 0.757로, 심리에 대한 질문 22문항에 대한 내적 일관성 신뢰도는 0.616으로, 그리고 전체 63문항의 내적 일관성 신뢰도는 0.840으로 유의미한 수준이었다. 신체에 대한 질문 4번과 심리 9번 문항의 경우 문항 총점과의 상관(item-total correlation)이 음의 값으로 응답의 일관성(신뢰도)이 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 순수 바따, 삣따, 까파 유형 대상으로 신체 4번, 심리 9번을 삭제 한 나머지 61문항의 신뢰도는 0.864로 나타났다. 위의 결과는 복합체질을 제외한 순수체질만을 대상으로 했기 때문에, 응답의 일관성을 나타내는 내적 일관성 신뢰도가 더 높게 나타났다. 그리고 타당도에서는 아유르베다 전문가의 판단과 검사지 응답의 문항점수 간의 일치도 카파(kappa) 계수는 0.619로 유의미한 수준이다. 따라서 본 연구는 한국형 아유르베다 체질 검사지의 개발을 위한 기초자료가 될 것이다.

According to Ayurveda, an individual can be classified into any one of the seven constitutional types (Prakriti) depending on the dominance of one, two, or three Doshas. A 'Dosha' is representative of fundamental mechanisms that are responsible for homeostasis, and thus, to health. In the recent years, there have been several efforts to see whether certain physiological, haematological or biochemical parameters have any relationship with the constitutional types or not. The objective of the present study was to see if the results of autonomic function tests vary according to Prakriti of an individual. We conducted this study in clinically healthy volunteers of both the gender belonging to the age group of 17 to 35 years after obtaining their written consent. The Prakriti of these volunteers was assessed on the basis of a validated questionnaire and also by traditional method of interviewing. After confirming that the primary Dosha ascertained by both these methods matched, 106 volunteers were grouped into three on the basis of primary Dosha and were subjected to various autonomic function tests such as cold pressor test, standing-to-lying ratio, Valsalva ratio and pupillary responses such as pupil cycle time and pupil size measurement in light and dark. The results suggest that, the autonomic function tests in the healthy individuals may correlate linearly with the primary Dosha expressed in an individual. In particular, people with Kapha as the most dominant Dosha showed a tendency to have either a higher parasympathetic activity or a lower sympathetic activity with respect to their cardiovascular reactivity in comparison to the individuals with Pitta or Vata as the most dominant Dosha.
