ABSTRACT
Objective: To report a case of a patient with a psychosomatic disorder who complained of hyperventilation and was treated with oriental medical treatments and emotional freedom techniques (EFTs).
Methods: The patient was diagnosed as having a psychosomatic disorder through an interview and several psychological tests, such as the house-tree-person (HTP) and the person in the rain (PITR) tests. We treated the patient with oriental medical treatments that included herbal medications, western medications, moxibustion, cupping, and EFT.
Results: After the treatments, the clinical symptoms of the patient were improved.
Conclusions: Oriental medical treatments and EFT may be effective treatments for psychosomatic disorders.
