Thermal change of thermogram can be induced by heat, drugs, diseases, stress, treatments and so on. Because they changed blood circulation of body surface. Negative treatment have been used in oriental medicine to decrease pain and to purify fluids and it can also change blood circulation of body surface. The purpose of this study was to observe the detail changes of temperature after negative treatment and to know the differences according to the negative pressures by thermography. This study was carried for 5 days and thermogram was operated 15 times. The patient had been treated on the back with electromotive type negative treatment and the treated sites was devides into 4 parts with different negative pressure. The results was that the temperature of all parts rised after treatment and the highest point was 10 minutes after treatment. The differences according to the negative pressures was that the temperature of the 55mmHg part rised particularly than the others and it continued until 40 minutes after treatment. There were no differences between 30mmHg and 40mmHg part. The temperature of 50mmHg part were low than the others during all thermogram.
