The Clinical Picture from the Chinese Medicine (TCM) Point of View
Back Ailments
Success of Therapy
The Klinik am Steigerwald predominately treats patients with problematical illnesses. The patients referred to the clinic because of back ailments have often been operated on many times and are treated for pain.
Comprehensive documentation of all stationary treatment, which has been compiled since 1999, shows that an improvement quota of more than 70 % is achieved by the day the patient is released. The improvement essentially remains stable during the 12-month follow-up observation period. At the same time, pain medication could be reduced by more than 50 % on average.
Acupuncture and the related moxibustion, a number of physiotherapeutic methods, Japanese baths, other procedures conducive to treatment and, as a central methodical pillar, Chinese medicinal therapy, are used.
Treatment is difficult in the following cases:
- Patients who have been taking pain killers, cortisone, psychopharmacologic drugs and similar medicines for a very long time.
- When back pain is only the tip of the iceberg under which another illness such as an old manic depression is hidden.
- The patient has no patience.
- Heart function is so poor that the supply of blood reserves is not sufficient for therapy and the healing processes.
