Interventions

Anma (Anma group) In study 1, the VAS values of VAS paper (up to 100 mm) separated before and after Amma treatment were used to draw a vertical line before and after Amma treatment to record the &quo
Katakori&quot
condition. The VAS values were compared before and after Anma treatment. In study 2, in the Anma group, 1 minute before the Anma treatment (Pre), immediately after the end of Anma treatment (Post 0),
the body position was in the lateral decubitus position (left to right), and the treatment site was performed in the order of (1) cervical portion (2) upper shoulder region (3) upper limb (4) intersca
stroking

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Visual analog scale (VAS) In study 1, the VAS values of VAS paper (up to 100 mm) separated before and after Amma treatment were used to draw a vertical line before and after Amma treatment to record the "Katakori" condition. The VAS values were compared before and after Anma treatment. In study 3, both the Anma group and the control group were (1) 7 days before Anma (Before 7), (2) immediately before Anma (Before), (3) 7th day after Anma (After 7), (4) Anma after the completion of the implementation (After 14) and the seventh day after the completion of (5) Anma (After 21), a total of 5 measurements were performed. As above mentioned, VAS values were measured before Amma treatment, and after resting for 10 minutes in the supine position, MBV was measured for 1 minute and sampled for 5 seconds for analysis.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) In study 2, in the Anma group, 1 minute before the Anma treatment (Pre), immediately after the end of Anma treatment (Post 0), 1 minute later (Post 1), 2 minutes later (Post 2), 3 minutes later (Post 3), 4 minutes later (Post 4), 5 minutes later (Post 5), 6 minutes later (Post 6), 7 minutes later (Post 7), 8 minutes later (Post 8), 9 minutes later (Post 9) , we measured MBV. In study 3, both the Anma group and the control group were (1) 7 days before Anma (Before 7), (2) immediately before Anma (Before), (3) 7th day after Anma (After 7), (4) Anma after the completion of the implementation (After 14) and the seventh day after the completion of (5) Anma (After 21), a total of 5 measurements were performed. As above mentioned, VAS values were measured before Amma treatment, and after resting for 10 minutes in the supine position, MBV was measured for 1 minute and sampled for 5 seconds for analysis.
