Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives : This case study describes a successful treatment process of a Soyangin patient with somatoform autonomic dysfunction symptoms using Soyangin therapeutic measures, including administration of Dokhwaljihwang-tang (Ô¼üÀò¢üÜ÷·) and Sibyimijihwang-tang (ä¨ì£Ú«ò¢üÜ÷·).
Methods : The patient was treated with several constitutionally discriminated medicinal agents (Ô¼üÀò¢üÜ÷·, ä¨ì£Ú«ò¢üÜ÷·) and acupunctural therapy accompanied by simultaneous western medical management. The visual analogue scale (VAS) was applied to assess the severity of flushing.
Results and Conclusions : As flushing was one of the chief complaints, the patient was treated with Soyangin therapeutic measures including Dokhwaljihwang-tang and Sibyimijihwang-tang. The patient responded positively to the therapy, but further studies are anticipated for more definitive conclusions.
