Abstract
Objectives To observe the pain reduction effect of Korean medical treatment combined with supine JS cervical therapy on neck pain and headache caused by whiplash injury. Methods The medical records of 30 patients suffering from neck pain and headache caused by traffic accidents from August 1, 2020 to October 30, 2020 were studied. 15 patients receiving supine JS cervical therapy combined with Korean medical treatment were assigned to group A and another 15 patients receiving Korean medical treatment but without Chuna therapy were assigned to group B. The following patient data were analyzed retrospectively - age, sex, and number of admission days, neck pain and headache visual analogue scale (VAS), and neck disability index (NDI). Statistical analysis was conducted using IBM SPSS 25.0. for Windows. A p-value≤0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. Results Both neck pain and headache VAS score in group A and B showed a statistically significant decrease. The changes in neck pain and headache VAS score in group A was statistically significant higher compared to those of group B. NDI in group A showed a statistically significant decrease, but NDI in group B did not decreased statistically significant. Conclusions Korean medicine treatment effectively reduces neck pain and headache. Especially, the pain reduction effect is better in patients receiving Korean medicine treatment combined with supine JS cervical therapy than in those receiving Korean medicine treatment without supine JS cervical therapy.
