摘要

足部疼痛為門診常見症狀之一，本案例為一運動傷害所導致之足部肌腱炎，西醫多半採取保守治療，傳統中醫多半採取針灸及傷科治療，而本案例因曾經接受多次針灸治療，仍有疼痛情形，遂嘗試經脈音療，經脈音療為非侵入式，以不同音叉置放於經絡、穴位、氣場上做治療，透過音叉震動的頻率達到治療效果，本案例治療兩次後，疼痛與活動皆有改善。

Foot pain is a common problem in clinics of Chinese Medicine. Supportive treatment is mostly adopted in western medicine. In Chinese medicine, however, clinicians use acupuncture and Chinese manipulative therapy to treat these patients. This is a case of foot tendinitis caused by sports injury. The patient had received acupuncture for many times, but the pain didn't improve. As a result, we tried to do acutonics therapy for this patient. Acutonics is a non-invasive therapy, using tuning forks as the tool. We placed different tuning forks on patients' meridians, acupoints,and aura. The vibration of tuning forks could bring about the effect of the treatment. After two times of acutonics treatment in our case, we saw significant improvement in pain scale and activities.
