Abstract
Objective: To report the effect of an oriental medicine treatment, including chuna manual therapy, for a patient suffering with spondylolytic spondylolisthesis. Methods: One patient was treated by oriental medical treatment including acupuncture, pharmacopuncture, and chuna manual therapy and the results were assessed with a Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), walking distance, and radiological examination. Results: After treatment, the NRS changed from 6 to 2 and walking distance changed from 250 m to 1000 m. Conclusions: In this study, oriental medical treatment, including chuna therapy, was an effective treatment for patients with spondylolytic spondylolisthesis. However, additional studies are needed, as are more and observations of these patients.
