Objectives: Functional Cerebrospinal Therapy (FCST) is a rather new physiologic therapeutics. It has passed about two decades since its basic idea was founded. This study briefly reviewed its early history. Methods: The first FCST patient was a stroke patient in the year 1992. Basic ideas of FCST was devised one by one and later developed into a systematic clinical application. The first official lecture was held in the year 2004. Yinyang balance in the meridian-system-based network over the whole body was a mainstay idea. Results: As other stories on newly-developed therapeutics, there was an effort to make a breakthrough for difficult clinical problems, and followed by a creative initial idea along with incessant refinement in the early history of FCST. Conclusions: Patient-centered approaches was a mainspring in the development and refinement of FCST. History of FCST hereafter may well follow the trace.

본 증례에서는 수면 중 이갈이에 의해 발생한 턱관절 통증에 대하여 FCST를 포함한 침치료를 통해 양호한 치료효과가 있는 것을 관찰하였다. 상기 환자는 FCST의 균형측정지 검사상 TMJ의 경미한 불균형 외에 방사선 소견상 구조적인 큰 이상이 없었음에도 이갈이에 따른 심한 근육긴장으로 통증이 발생한 경우였다. 이것을 통해 FCST가 턱관절의 구조적인 문제에만 국한되어 적용되는 것이 아니라 턱관절 주위 근육 긴장의 빠른 회복에도 상당한 효과가 있음을 볼 수 있었다. 또한 야간에 TBA를 착용한 상태로 잠을 자게 되면 그 자체로 이갈이에 대한 예방효과가 있어 현재 턱관절통증 등의 증상이 없는 이갈이 환자에게도 예방적인 목적으로 TBA의 처방이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

A dizziness case with functional cerebro-spinal therapy (FCST) was reviewed to explore the effect of FCST. The case was managed with Yinyang Balancing Appliance (YBA) and the TMJ Balancing Appliance (TBA), combined with acupuncture, cupping and herbal medicine. Clinical outcome measurement was performed based on subjective measures and clinical observation. The patient showed positive changes starting after the first treatment. Futher clinical and biological research on FCST is expected.

본 임상사례에서 보는 것처럼 틱, 뚜렛장애에서도 FCST의 음양균형장치와 골반균형기법(PBT), 침치료 등 구조적 치료를 통해서도 유의한 치료변화가 나타남을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 증례에서는 난임의 치료방법으로 FCST의 음양균형장치를 포함한 PBT, 평형 침 치료, 부항, 한약 등의 복합치료로 전신 증상의 개선 및 감소에 현저한 치료효과가 나타남을 관찰하였다. 또한 그 결과로 자연 임신에 성공하여 출산하였고 출산한 아기도 건강한 상태임을 확인하였다.

본 증례에서는 발병한지 3개월된 틱장애에 대해 약 7개월 간의 FCST 치료법이 양호한 치료효과가 있는 것을 관찰하였다. 틱장애 증상의 정도는 YGTSS를 통하여 평가하였으며, 1주(${\pm}1$일)간격으로 방문때마다 측정이 이루어졌다. YGTSS 점수가 치료 도중 몇차례 초진 시 측정점수인 24점보다 상승한 적이 있었으나 곧 호전되었으며, 최종 치료 종결시에는 5점으로 초진 점수에 비해 현저하게 호전된 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 그리고 이 호전된 상태는 추적관찰 중에서 2015년 10월 현재까지도 지속되고 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 이에 저자는 본 증례를 FCST 치료를 통하여 틱장애를 호전시킨 유의한 증례라고 판단하여 보고하는 바이다.

Objectives : Functional Cerebrospinal Therapy (FCST) is a new physiologic therapeutics developed in Korea as a meridian yinyang balance approach. The theory of yinyang balance has been at the core of health enhancement approach of meridian and acupuncture medicine ever since its start. Methods : Introductory overview of FCST is presented in relation with meridian yinynag balance theory. Results : As the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and related tissues have direct interconnection with brainstem proprioceptive or motor systems and the face is where all the meridians converge, FCST applies a fine adjustment of the posture of TMJ as a treatment tool for neurologic conditions or meridian imbalances. Conclusions : Highly sophisticated diagnostic and therapeutic techniques to adjust various subset aspects of yinyang balance are developed within FCST, which is supposed to be one of major contributions to natural healing.

Objectives: Therapeutic effect of Yinyang Balancing Appliance of functional cerebrospinal therapy (FCST) for meridian and neurologic yinyang balance was observed in Tourette's Disorder. Methods: Two Tourette's Disorder cases were managed with the Yinyang Balancing Appliance on temporomandibular joint (TMJ), combined with acupuncture. Clinical outcome measurement was based on subjective measures and clinical observations. Results: The patients showed positive changes even after the initial treatment and this effect maintained over the follow-up period. Conclusions: Although it is not clear the effect is a sustaining or temporary in its nature, a positive effect was observed and further clinical and biological research on FCST is expected.
