Objectives: The purpose of this study is to investigate various treatments in other countries for nocturnal enuresis. We analyze the treatments on enuresis (within acupuncture, moxibustion, psychotherapy and chiropractic) and herb for 12 years (from 2000 to 2011).
Methods: Databases include PubMed and Web of Science. To narrow the search, the following key search terms were used: ’enuresis, acupuncture’, ’enuresis, moxibustion’, ’enuresis, psychotherapy’, ’enuresis, chiropractic’ and ’enuresis, herb’. The search was limited to the publication date from 2000 to 2011.
Results: There are 31 studies on enuresis treatment by using acupuncture, 3 on moxibustion, 91 on psychotherapy, and 8 on chiropractic. Among them, 27 studies on acupuncture, 3 on moxibustion, 86 on psychotherapy and 5 on chiropractic reveal that patients with enuresis benefit from the each treatment.
Conclusions: In the future, various researches on acupoint are necessary. Especially, studies on enuresis by using psychotherapy and chiropractic are needed. With those efforts, treatments on enuresis will become more pragmatic and beneficial.
