Objectives : The purpose of this study was to report the effectiveness of burning acupuncture therapy on patients of ankle sprain. Methods : We treated 21 patients who injured their ankles with burning acupuncture therapy. First, checked damage regions, we applied acupuncture at ligamentous periosteal junction. After protecting skin with wet gauze, we heated the body of acupuncture about 1cm away from skin for 2~3 seconds. Then we removed the acupuncture without maintaining, and sterilized. We recorded the changes of Visual analog scale(VAS) of pre and the first, second post procedures. Results : The average of VAS had changed from $5.62{\pm}2.24$ to $2.14{\pm}2.08$ after first procedure, and to $1.57{\pm}1.40$ after second procedure.

Methods : 43 patients with low back pan were divided into 2 groups; using burning acupuncture therapy with chuna therapy group and using chuna therapy only group. The patients were evaluated by visual analogue scale(VAS) and pain rating score(PRS). Results : Each group showed significant in decreasing VAS score and PRS score. After 2nd treatment, the sample group was significant mere effective in decreasing VAS. And after 3rd treatment, the sample group was significantly more effective in decreasing PRS(p<0.05). Constructive disease didn't affect the change of pain significantly. Conclusions : In this clinical study, using burning acupuncture therapy with chuna therapy group was more effective in relieving low back pain than using chuna therapy only group.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of the burning acupuncture therapy and exercise therapy on the internal derangement of knee with patella tendon and posterior cruciate ligament injury. Methods: Burning acupuncture therapy was administered three times and exercise therapy was administered during 4 weeks. The improvement of clinical symptom was evaluated by VAS(visual analogue scale) and KOOS(knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score). Results: After treatment, the patient's VAS score was reduced to 0 pant. The KOOS score of pain, symptom, ADL, sport/rec, QOL(quality of life) improved from 28 to 75, from 36 to 71, from 22 to 65, from 0 to 15, from 25 to 38 respectively. Conclusions: Burning acupuncture therapy and exercise therapy fer internal derangement of knee with patella tendon and posterior cruciate ligament injury was effective. Although this case presented valuable result, further research is encouraged to confirm the effectiveness of this treatment with large number of patient.

Methods: Among the patients with shoulder pain, We selected 3 patients diagnosed as shoulder impingement syndrome by physical examination and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI). After Chuna treatment and burning acupuncture therapy, we evaluated the effectiveness by measuring range of movement(ROM) and checking The Shoulder Pain And Disability Index(SPADI) every three times the patients called at the clinic for three weeks. Results: The symptoms of the patients got improved relatively in short period considering shoulder impingement syndrome belongs to chronic diseases and steps chronical procedure in recovering. Conclusions: These cases showed Chuna treatment and burning acupuncture therapy could be applied on shoulder impingement syndrome and were effective for improving the symptoms.
