Objectives This study aimed to report the effectiveness of abdominal Daoyin and lymphatic circulation technique in conjunction with whole-body articulation mechanics technique therapy in treating indigestion. Methods Three patients who suffered from dyspepsia and abscess after consuming foods incompatible with their constitution, following a 10-year implementation of a constitutional diet at a local Korean Medicine clinic, visited a Korean Medicine Hospital. The patients underwent treatment with abdominal Daoyin and lymphatic circulation technique. The effects of these techniques were analyzed using a retrospective record analysis method. Results Following the implementation of abdominal Daoyin and lymphatic circulation technique for indigestion, the numeric rating scale scores improved significantly. Case 1 improved from 9 to 2, case 2 from 6 to 0, and case 3 from 5 to 1. Conclusions While acknowledging the limitations of being a case report involving only three patients and the absence of specialized outcomes for digestive issues, this report may provide a preliminary basis for considering the efficacy of Chuna manual therapy in indigestion treatment.
