Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study is to report the efficacy of using Korean medicine treatment on dizziness diagnosed as Dam Hun. Methods: The patient received herbal medicine treatment of Banhabakchulchunma-tang and acupuncture from May 18, 2023 to June 3, 2023. To evaluate the treatment, we used the Korean Version of the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (K-DHI) to measure dizziness. The degree of dizziness, headache, and dyspepsia was also evaluated using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Results: The patient's VAS scores improved after treatment. The change in the K-DHI scores showed that the patient's dizziness symptoms were relieved. Conclusions: The results of this study suggest that Korean medicine therapies may be effective for treating dizziness.
