Abstract

In this paper, examined characteristics of EEG(electroencephalogram) variation when the stimulation was given to lung-wan(CV12), Shin-gwol(CV8) and Gwan-won(CV4) which were some of the acupuncture point, through indirect moxibustion and No stimulation. The EEG signals were measured before the stimulation, during the stimulation, and 1 hour after the stimulation. The measured time domain data were converted to the frequency domain data FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) and frequency power spectrum. Then the $\alpha,\beta,\delta$, and $\theta$ waves were analyzed for variation to the amplitude of vibration according to the stages of stimulation.

한의학의 뜸 요법은 잘 알려져 있으나, 현재까지도 쑥을 연소하여 시술하는 고전적 방식을 많이 사용하고 있다. 대체의학의 뜸 기기 개발에서, 뜸에서 반응하는 인체의 특징 및 요소들을 파악하는 것은 중요하다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 뜸 요법에 대한 뇌파변화를 고찰하고자, 자극을 가하지 않은 무자극 대상군과 간접 뜸 방식을 적용한 대상군으로 나누어, 뜸 자극에서 중요하게 여겨지는 관원(CV4), 신궐(CV8), 그리고 중완(CV12)의 경혈 점에 자극을 주어 뇌파 변화의 특징을 비교 분석하였다.
