Abstract

Purpose: Symptoms of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD) include tremors, bradykinesia, and rigidity. The purpose was to explore the effects of breathing, meditation and qigong on the improving of insight, behavior, mood discomfort, depression, anxiety, and olfactory dysfunction, which are PD non-motor symptoms. Methods: Three stages of An's-4444 healing breathing, An's Gwanjeong healing meditation, and healing qigong performed 12 times for 80 minutes at a time in subjects with PD (11 patients), and pre- and post-measurements compared and evaluated. Results: The Integrated Parkinson's Rating Scale (UPDRSI) for mood discomfort after 12 healings was 69%. The Depression Scale (61%) for HAMD, and 64% for Anxiety (HAMA)), and the smell identification test (TSI) for a trial for olfactory dysfunction, improved to 82%, respectively. However, the numerical values after one month after 12 healing were almost same in all four scales. This means that the healing effect maintained until after one month. Conclusions: An's healing breathing, meditation and qigong therapy significantly improved insight, behavior, and mood discomfort, and non-motor symptoms such as depression, anxiety, and olfactory dysfunction. These results suggest that An's breathing, meditation and qigong therapy are valuable as a primary therapy to improve and heal non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease patients. Further research in biomedical science is needed.

목적 : 특발성파킨슨병(PD)은 운동증상(떨림, 운동 완서, 경직)과 비운동증상(통찰력과 인지 장애, 기분의 불편함, 우울증, 불안증, 후각 기능장애)이 있다. 이 연구는 호흡, 명상 및 기공 치유로 PD 비운동증상의 개선 효과를 탐색하는 것이 목적이다. 방법 : PD가 있는 대상자(11명)에게 An's-4444힐링호흡, An's관정힐링명상, An's힐링기공치유의 3단계를 1회에 80분 동안 12회 수행하고 치유 전후, 1개월 경과 후 3회 측정하여 측정치를 비교 평가하였다. 결과 : 12회 치유 후 통찰력과 인지장애에 대한 통합 파킨슨병 등급척도(UPDRSI) 수치는 69%, 우울증척도(HAMD)는 61%, 불안증(HAMA)은 64%, 후각 기능장애 냄새식별 테스트(TSI)는 82%로 각각 개선되었다. 치유 1개월 경과 후의 수치는 4개 척도 모두 차이가 없었다. 이는 치유 후 1개월 경과 후까지 효과가 유지됨을 의미한다. 결론 : An's 호흡, 명상 및 기공요법으로 PD비운동증상이 유의성 있게 개선되었다. 특히 후각기능장애 개선으로, 향기를 맡게 되어 삶의 만족도가 향상되었다. 결과는 호흡, 명상 및 기공요법이 PD의 비운동성 증상을 개선 및 치유하는 자연요법으로 가치가 있다고 판단하며, 의생명과학적 추가 연구가 필요하다.
