Objectives The purpose of this study was to analyze the Chuna manual therapy usage status after the application of Chuna manual therapy health insurance. Methods This study analyzed the health insurance data (2019-2021). From April 2019 to December 2021, monthly data were collected by simple Chuna, complex Chuna (own expense 50%), complex Chuna (own expense 80%), and special (dislocation) Chuna. Results The major results are as follows. First, in hospital-level medical institutions, simple Chuna and complex Chuna (own expense 50%) occupied a similar proportion. In clinic-level medical institutions, simple Chuna occupies the largest proportion. Second, the amount of use decreased in all medical institutions after September, which is thought to be the result of restrictions on Chuna manual therapy health insurance. Conclusions Therefore, it is necessary to conduct research by receiving more detailed data onr Chuna manual therapy health insurance. Through this, an improved policy of Chuna manual therapy health insurance should be discussed.

Tibiofibular joints have been neglected in literature and clinically. Some researchers have established biomechanical principles, defined pathological problems and developed the methods of evaluation and orthopedic manual therapy. The evaluation should also take into account that injuries of the knee and ankle region can always result in tibiofibular joints. The orthopedic manual therapy can be effectively applied to disease caused by tibiofibular joints.

Background: The purpose of this study was to develop a problem-based learning model for orthopedic manual physical therapy. A problem-based learning (PBL) model for orthopedic manual physical therapy developed from PBL module of Jeju C university (Halla-Newcastle PBL Center). A summary of this study is as follows: 1) PBL model is comprised of a class of 30 students, operated small group as of 4~5 students. 2) PBL is suggested a scenario of clinical case, induced variety reaction through group discussion and presentation. 3) PBL is occurred wide variety learning through group work activity and self-directed learning. 4) The tutor as a facilitator is played a guide for group discussion, work activity and team learning. 5) The evaluation for PBL is performed such as student self-evaluation, group activity evaluation, individual presentation, and practice. This model is considered wide variety learning through team learning and self-directed learning by clinical reasoning and problem solving for musculoskeletal clinical case. We suggest problem based learning for the education of orthopedic manual physical therapy in which the learners are very interested in and has the effective outcome.

Background: This case study is to describe the manual therapy for the patient with posttraumatic stress (PTSD), sleep disturbance, and pain such as chronic low back pain (CLBP). Methods: The patient who participated in this study was a 60 year-old male PTSD patient with CLBP. His CLBP is not from any genetic or family history but a sequelae of torture that he had gone through about 30 years ago. Prior to the intervention, it was assessed that the PDS-K score was 16, PQSI-K was 12, SLR-90-R was low, VAS score was 10, and KODI socre was 25. The intervention was conducted through manual therapy (myofascial release, muscle energy technique, lumbar stabilization) twice a week for eight weeks in total. Results: After eight week-intervention, the PDS-K, SLR-90-R, VAS, and KODI score were improved whereas PQSI-K was not sufficiently fast improved. Conclusions: The manual therapy is substantially effective in dealing with PTSD and CLBP.

Objectives This study was conducted to assess the effect of chuna manual therapy after hip arthroplasty. Methods We searched across 9 electronic databases (PubMed, Cochrane Library, Wangfang data, China National Knowledge Infrastructure [CNKI], Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System [OASIS], National Digital Science Library [NDSL], Korean Medical Database [KMBASE], Koreanstudies Information Service System [KISS], Research Information Sharing Service [RISS]) to find randomized controlled clinical trials for chuna manual therapy after hip arthroplasty. Results On inclusion criteria, 11 appropriate studies were included and analyzed. The deep vein thrombosis incidence of the chuna manual therapy group was statistically lower than the conventional treatment group (p=0.0002). Chuna manual therapy significantly improved the Harris hip score compared with conventional treatment (p<0.00001). Also, chuna manual therapy combined with herbal fumigation therapy significantly elevated the hip joint function score of Harris hip score compared with the conventional therapy group (p<0.00001). Conclusions The systematic review showed that chuna manual therapy had significant effects on hip arthroplasty. Nonetheless, considering the high risk of bias and geographic bias, further research with well-designed studies is required to support the effectiveness of chuna manual therapy.

Methods: The researcher conducted search across the 3 electronic databases (Pubmed, Wanfang data(included CAJ) and Oasis) to find all of randomized controlled clinical trials(RCTs) that used Chuna manual therapy for irritable bowel syndrome. Results: Eight RCTs met inclusion criteria. The meta-analysis showed positive results for the use of Chuna manual therapy in terms of the therapeutic effects or symptom score compared to west medication, herbal medication, acupucture and moxa treatment alone. Conclusions: The review found encouraging but limited evidence of Chuna manual therapy for irritable bowel syndrome. More highquality clinical trials research is needed on Chuna, manipulative therapy of irritable bowel syndrome.

This study was conducted to investigate whether Mulligan manual therapy and Physical therapy have effectiveness on the pain and muscle assessment questionnaire in female elders with osteoarthritis of the knee. Thirty subjects were participated in this study. And they were all randomly divided into Mulligan manual therapy and Physical therapy group. To evaluate the effects of Mulligan manual therapy and Physical therapy, subjects were evaluated by using visual analogue scale and muscle assessment questionnaire. The assessment parameters were evaluated before, after 2 weeks, and after 4 weeks treatments. And we received a consent form from Mulligan manual therapy subjects. The results of repeated measures analysis of variance showed that pain, strength, endurance, coordination/balance were significantly improved after than before therapy in Mulligan manual therapy group. So we conclude that Mulligan manual therapy has effectiveness on the pain and muscle assessment questionnaire in female elders with osteoarthritis of the knee.
