Abstract
|
|
|
|
Depressive Disorders are widespread and increasing recently. Somatic-symptom Group in Major Depressive Disorders are treated with current medical treatment but the results are not satisfactory. We tried to apply more effective and satisfactory oriental medical treatment. We treated 2 depression patients accompanying somatic-symptom treated with herbal medication and Meditation of the retaining needle. The Meditation of the retaining needle(鐵膜想), which combines Meditation and Acupuncture is a kind of medical meditation originating from Oriental Medicine. After our treatments, various somatic-symptoms were improved and Beck’s depression Inventory(BDI) decreased from 28 and 27 to 14 and 12. This result suggests that meditation of the retaining needle(鐵膜想) is effective on somatic symptom and able to be developed as a useful way of oriental medical psychological care.
