“Hybrid medicine that meets traditional experience and modern medicine!”
Introduction
The Department of circulatory disease and Neurology is a clinical department of Korean medicine that specializes in researching and treating circulatory system diseases such as cardiovascular diseases and peripheral vascular diseases, and neurological diseases such as cranial nerve diseases (stroke, degenerative brain diseases) and peripheral nerve diseases. We use a variety of diagnostic devices, including cerebral blood flow tests and blood vessels and blood tests, and implement world-class Korean medicine treatment through herbal medicine, acupuncture, electro- acupuncture, herbal acupuncture, bee-venom acupuncture, bong acupuncture, cupping, and moxibustion treatment. In addition, we are proud to be the largest medical department in Korean medicine that conducts various clinical studies, publishing about 40 papers a year announcing the excellence of Korean medicine treatment in various domestic and foreign academic journals.
As the name suggests, it deals with diseases related to all circulatory (deep-brain-peripheral) and nervous systems (brain-spinal-peripheral). For example, if you have symptoms such as numbness, weakness, or tremors in any part of the body, there may be a problem with the nervous system. Symptoms such as palpitations, tightness in the chest, or cold hands and feet may indicate a problem with the circulatory system. If you have the above symptoms or want to receive preventive treatment for cardiovascular disease, you can visit our Department of Circulation and Neurology, which provides professional Korean medicine treatment.
Special clinics in the nervous system include stroke prevention and aftereffects clinic, headache and dizziness clinic, Parkinson's disease clinic, sports head trauma clinic, restless legs syndrome clinic, degenerative brain disease clinic, peripheral nerve disease clinic, and drug overdose syndrome clinic. Angina Clinic, Chronic Heart Failure Clinic, Peripheral Vascular Disease (vascular aging) Clinic, Cardiac Neurosis Clinic, and Cold Hands and Feet Clinic are in operation.
'Chunghyeoldan and Geopungcheonghyeoldan' developed by the Department of Circulation and Neurology at Kyung Hee University Korean Medicine Hospital are not only safe, but also have antihyperlipidemic effects, antihypertensive effects, vascular function improvement and anti-arteriosclerosis effects, neuroprotective effects, and suppression of recurrence of small vessel cerebral infarction. It has shown excellent effects in various fields, such as effect, and has been reported in several international academic journals, and it is currently being widely used in clinical practice.
The Department of circulatory disease and Neurology has accumulated various clinical experiences based on the tradition and experience of the Paralysis Center, which opened in 1974. In addition, based on the neurological examination, various examination records are checked and, if necessary, effective examination and treatment are continued through cooperation with related departments.
Medical Fields
Nervous system disease
- Cerebrovascular disease: stroke (stroke), stroke prevention, stroke sequelae
- Brain disease: epilepsy, head trauma
- Degenerative brain disease: dementia, Parkinson's disease and Parkinson's syndrome
- Abnormal movement disorders: tremors, dystonia, restless legs syndrome
- Peripheral nerve disease: Various diseases that cause sensory abnormalities and muscle weakness
- Others: Headache, dizzinessCirculatory disease
- Heart disease: angina pectoris, chronic heart failure, cardiomyopathy
- Peripheral vascular disease: vascular aging, arteriosclerosis, cold hypersensitivity of hands and feetFeatures
We continue the tradition and experience of the Stroke Center, which opened in 1974.
Although new technologies and drugs are being developed every year, the practice of medicine is inevitably based on experience. The same is true for Korean medicine. The accumulation of clinical experience from person to person as well as documented traditional medicine records that have been passed down from the past become the driving force to sublimate the technology of treatment into art. Our Department of circulatory disease and Neurology is doing our best to treat patients with various clinical experiences and know-how as a bridgehead that continues the traditions and experiences of the paralysis center into the future and the main axis of the current paralysis and brain disease center.We pursue accurate diagnosis and evaluation for the best treatment.
Based on the neurological examination, various examination records are checked, and Korean medicine diagnostic devices such as cerebral blood flow test, blood vein blood test, and accelerated pulse wave test are used. are mediating. Just as you easily find the fastest route when you walk by looking at a map, we are making sure that our patients can receive examinations and treatment efficiently.We aim to treat together rather than being treated unilaterally.
Nowadays, medical information can be easily accessed through various media, but it is difficult to understand the details easily. Therefore, patients are usually in a position to receive treatment unilaterally. However, our Department of circulatory disease and Neurology believes that better results can be achieved when patients accurately understand their symptoms and diseases and actively participate in treatment. Therefore, we not only provide explanations at eye level with patients and caregivers, but also lead them to treat and manage together in various aspects such as daily exercise and daily life management.We would like to provide the best treatment that encompasses Korean and Western medicine to all patients who visit our Department of circulatory disease and Neurology.
