Coccygodynia is a common problem that is characterized by pain in the tailbone that radiates to the lower sacral and perineal areas. The purpose of this study is to report the pain decrease after Chuna manipulation on a chronic coccygodynia patient. We diagnosed a patient suffering from chronic coccygodynia as subluxation of Co2 below Co1. And we treated for correcting the subluxation with Chuna manipulation. The effectiveness of the Chuna manipulation was evaluated with visual analogue scale(VAS) score and the angle between Co1 and Co2. It was decreased that both VAS score and angle between Co1 and Co2. The effect was maintained for a period of at least 6 months. We concluded that Chuna manipulation has effectiveness on chronic coccygodynia from coccygeal subluxation.
