Bi-Digital O-Ring Test Medicine Improves Life Style Disease in the Health Care and Welfare Field

Abstract

We are rapidly reaching a serious stage in our aging society. In the not too distant future, 25% of the population of Japan will be elderly persons aged 65 years or more. ¹ Modern medical science and medical treatment in Japan have remarkably progressed, showing remarkable development of the most advanced technology in medical treatment. Nevertheless, it is frequently difficult to treat the elderly aged or others requiring care with only western medicine because the clinical indications must be very strict owing to possible side effects or other adverse reactions.

Recently, a “care health insurance system” has been established by the Japanese government with the active cooperation of the local governments. ¹ Furthermore, medical practices dealing with patient care, which had been ignored as a minor field of medical science, are now being emphasized and have begun showing new development. ² Patient care has become an important field of modem medicine. As this new consciousness of health care gains respect and the new trends in social welfare wherein “care” should be based on the origin of the morbid state and early diagnosis at the pre-stage of disease advance, the view is gaining ground that “human scientific patient care” is likely to be more important than modem analytical western medical technology itself.^3,4

In such a transition period for the development of medical science and practices, BDORT will tend to play a more important role in the current fields of health care and care management.^5,6 In other words, it is conceivable that BDORT treatment may be the most effective advanced medical treatment for care and welfare, which can certainly be considered the starting point for the most advanced primary medical care.

In our recent clinical studies related to life style disease^7-9 and cancer patients^5,10, we observed and analyzed several new morbid states by BDORT diagnosis based on a general oriental medicine concept of “Shô” (the set of holistic patterns of a patient’s symptoms) and sought to improve the QOL of patients using both western and orient medical treatments. ¹¹ With respect to the current development of the health care activities, by introducing BDORT diagnosis we intend to elucidate the necessary elements for developing a new medical system based on the symbiosis of both western and eastern medicine.
