The ZZimzilbang is a room where many women eagerly go due to the special meaning women give to it related to their health. It is a different type of sauna room which maintains low degree of temperature, consisting of an Ondol room(Korean under-floor heating system, hypocaust) built with mineral stone radiating ultrared rays. Even though many women mention that they utilize it for health, there is no precise evidence of the effects on their health. This ethnographic study sought to define the phenomenon from the perspective of the women who experienced the ZZimzilbang. A convenience sample of 27 women was interviewed during a 15 month period from December 1995 to July 1997 in 12 ZZimzilbangs located in Seoul, Korea. The mean ages of the women 57.3 years ; seventeen women were housekeeper and only eight women had job : twenty women were married and three women among them were widows. The main reasons women patronize the place are : for mitigation and healing of physical signs and symptoms : composure ; safe lodging and boarding : control of outward appearance : control of health ; meeting and fellowship with friends : and custom. The outcomes of the utilization of the place were : mitigation of physical signs and symptoms : psychological tranquility : cosmetic and diet ; good use of spare time : and utilization of services provided there. Most women who visited ZZimzilbang for relief of physical signs and symptoms strongly mentioned a correlation to inadequate Sanhujori, the traditional postpartal and postabortal care for woman. Some of specific kinds of services provided in that place were alternative therapy such as acupuncture, negative cupping, finger-pressure, mugwort steam and various kinds of massage including massage of blood vessels that are influenced by Oriental medicine ; health education of breathing such as abdominal breathing or Danjeon(단전호흡) : and selling of many things including health foods, drugs for osteoporosis, and eutrophics. This study suggests that professional caregivers should further study this phenomenon for the development of adequate care of women with a resulting important in their quality of life.

질병의 발생은 병인, 숙주, 환경의 3가지 요소에 의해서 결정된다. 질병의 변천사를 보면 20세기 전반까지는 주요사망원인이 감염성 질환이었고, 20세기 후반기에 들어서면서 전염병이 관리되고 심장병, 당뇨병, 암 등 만성질환의 규모가 커지면서 만성질환의 관리가 현재까지의 관심사가 되고 있다. 식생활의 서구화와 고도 산업사회를 향한 시점에서 비만증은 근래에 발병률이 현저히 증가하면서 각종 성인병의 원인이 되고 있으며 만성질환의 이환율을 증가시키고 인간의 수영을 단축시키는 심각한 건강상의 문제를 일으키고 있다. 비만과 같은 만성질환은 대개 특정한 병원체가 없이 숙주와 환경의 상호작용에 의해서 결정된다. 한국 한의학에는 독특한 사상체질의학이론이 있다. 여기서는 모든 사람은 각자 체질적 특성을 갖고 체질마다 잘 걸리는 질병이 있다고 주장하고 있다. 비만도 일종의 질병이기 때문에 비만이 되기 쉬운 체질이 있을 것이다. 동양의학에서는 비만증의 치료 방법으로 약물요법, 침구요법 및 안마요법등을 사용하고 있다. 이에 상지대학교 부속 한방병원에 내원치료를 받고 있는 비만증환자들을 대상으로 하여 체질과 비만과의 관계를 연구한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 비만증 환자의 70.2%가 태음인, 26.9%가 소양인, 2.9%가 소음인이었다. 2. 비만인의 혈액 가운데 총 콜레스테롤, 저밀도 지방단백이 높은 사람보다 유리지방산과 중성지방이 높은 경우가 대부분을 차지했다. 지질분석과 체질간의 상관성에 관해서는 Triglyceride와 Free Fatty Acid가 상관성이 있는 것으로 인정되었다. 3. 비만과 유전은 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 사려된다. 4. 비만과 보약과는 관련성이 없었다. 5. 비만증은 분만, 피임, 수술후에 많이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 6. 대부분의 비만환자들은 간식, 특히 밀가루 음식을 즐기는 경향이 있었다. 7. 비만치료의 목적은 미용보다 건강을 위한 것이 많았다. 8. 태음인에게 태음조위탕으로 치료한 결과 4주에 2.2Kg이 감량되었다. 9. 비만인의 주된 원인은 육식보다는 당질과 지방질의 과다 섭취로 나타난 것이었다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of rehabilitation education on the reduction of the stress of family members who have patients suffering from stroke and to find a new way to nurse the patients and their family. Subjects & Methods: The subjects were sixty-one family members with the patients who had been hospotalized in K hospital of oriental medicine from september the 9th, 1996 to september the fourteen, 1996. This study was performed by simulated control group pretest-posttest design; pretest was done on the control group through a questionnaire, counselling and observation while posttest was done on the experimental group 1-2 days after systemic rehabilitation education. To teach the patients and their family, the amended version of a book written by Lee Hae-jin was used as a tool for systemic rehabilitation education. As a method to estimate ADL score, modified Kang's method was applied and ADL score was measured by well-trained technician. As for the tool to estimate the degree of family stress, Choi's method adjusted to this study was applied. In the analysis of the data, social property of the patient and the characteristic of the disease were surveyed in $X^2$ examination to confirm the consistency between the experimental group and the control group. The diffrence in the degree of the stress, which is a dependent factor, was examined by t-test. The difference in ADL score between the experimental group and the control group was examined by t-test. The difference in the degree of the stress according to the general feature of the family with stroke patient, social property of the patients and the characteristic of the disease were surveyed by F examination. The difference in family stress according to the degree of ADL was surveyed by F examination. RESULTS: 1. After hypothetically-examined systemic rehabilitation education, the total of the score of family stress surveyed in 34 items of three domains was compared between the experimental group and the control group. There was no statistically significant difference between two groups; mean score of experimental group=2.28, that of control group=2.93(t=.17, df=59, p=. 66). 2. In the survey on family stress in 34 items, the items over mean score 3.0 were firstly the anxiety of possible disability and relapse of the disease and secondly to watch the patient's suffering without doing anything in the domain of the change of the disease and the difficulty in caring. And the items of the lowest stress with less than mean 2.0 score were little chance to meet the relative and friends, inconsistent treatment and attitude of the medical workers and the change of the attitude of the relative due to the patient orderly in the domain of social and personal relation and the responsibility as the family. The items which showed the difference between two groups were aggravation of neighboring patient(t=3.36, df= 59, p=.001) and the possibility of patient's death(t=2.19, df=58.38, p=.033) in the domain of the change of the disease and the difficulty in caring. 3. In the study on the stress difference according to general features of the family with the stroke patient, the score of family stress with the occupation was higher with mean 2.49 than that of the family stress without occupation with mean 2.16, but there was no significant difference. (F=5.21, df=1/59, p=.026). 4. In the study on the stress difference according to social property of the patient and the characteristic of the disease, there was significant difference in the age of the patients (F=2.98, df=3/57, p=.039). These results show that even if there is no statistically significant difference between two groups, sixteen of the experimental group are less than 3.0 in ADL score(standard 6 score)while eight of the control group are less than 3.0 and that ten of the experimental group are in the year range of 39-49 while four of the control group are in the year range of 39-49 which showed significant difference in family stress. These imply that there is a possibility that the experimental group have serious and fundamental stress resulting in high pretest stress compared with the control group. It might be due to the characteristic of simulated control group pretest-posttest design that the psychologic-supportive effect by the education was not observed. On the basis of these results, the followings are suggested. 1) A study on the nursing-mediated method to reduce the stress in the items which are not resolved by rehabilitation education, a study on nursing according to the patient's age and a study on the supportive nursing toward the family with occupation are required. 2) More than two times consecutive nursing-mediated rehabilitation education to measure the family stress is required. 3) Comprehensive and multilateral systemic education program including the instruction on western-eastern medicine, physical therapy, exercise and diet through collaboration of the experts in each field is required. 4) Family stress at home as well as in the hospital needs to be estimated and home rehabilitation and home-nursing needs to be continued.
