摘要

雷射針灸是近年來新興的一種治療儀器，透過多樣化的頻率以及能量，結合中醫針灸學、經絡學等理論系統，以低能量雷射刺激穴位，發展出有別於傳統針灸的全新樣貌。因著非侵入性以及無感染風險，廣泛的應用在各種肌肉骨骼系統疾病、神經系統疾病，以及許多急慢性疾病。本篇病例報告中，探討一位急診眩暈的患者，以雷射針灸搭配Vascular Autonomic Signal（VAS）的診斷技術，在耳穴上找出相對應的兩個反應點，並結合中醫四診分析討論，以低能量雷射治療。希望透過這個案例分享，拋磚引玉，拓展雷射針灸應用範圍，提供患者另一種治療方法。

Laser acupuncture is a new and emerging treatment instrument that uses various frequency and energy, combined with traditional Chinese acupuncture, meridian and other theoretical systems to stimulate acupoints with low-level lasers, and develops a new look different from traditional acupuncture. Because it is noninvasive and has no risk of infection, it is widely used in various musculoskeletal system diseases, neurological diseases, and many acute and chronic diseases. In this case report, we discuss a patient with dizziness in an emergency department, andtwo corresponding reaction points are found byVascular Autonomous Signal (VAS) diagnosis technology on the auricular points, combined with the analysis and discussion of the four diagnostics of traditional Chinese medicine, and treated with low-level laser. Through this case, it is hoped that laser acupuncture can be applied to various diseases and provide patients with another treatment method.
