In the previous report of case studies, it was concluded that traditional techniques of oriental medicine could be utilized toward promotion of the level of health.Among many sorts of traditional techniques of oriental medicine, moxibustion is thought to be one of the most practical methods of self-care. In this report, we wish to mention some of the roles and problems of the care system of oriental medicine utilizing moxibustion for patients with chronic health problems in present-day medicine.The clinical records of the patients which consist of 149 males and 246 females over 40 years old were investigated. Of these patients, during the first course (for about 40 to 90 days), 67% (263) had been under both of our care and other hospitals' treatment, and 81% (321) had practiced moxibustion in the limbs or the back at home at least 3 times a week and 56% (139) of female patients had practiced in the back.The patient of the demonstrated case, who was a 72 year old female, complained of a decrease in left vision, asthenopia, tinnitus and other chronic health problems involved in several life events. After she pacticed moxibustion with us, she was finally relieved of her health problems. We believe that she consistently accepted the oculist's treatment and our care, because the oculist treated her from a viewpoint of specialty while we cared for her holisticly.From the above results and case, the following can be concluded;1. The care system of oriental medicine utilizing moxibustion can play a complemental role in present-day medicine from a holistic, inclusive point of view.2. As a social factor which interfares with practical uses of moxibustion, there is a difficulty in securing manpower that practices moxibustion in the back, particularly for middle or advanced aged females.
