Treatment Methods

At Dangdang we treat pain as a signal the body is sending, and look at the postural imbalance behind the signal. We sort where the imbalance begins into three patterns.

A Korean medicine manual treatment that pushes and pulls bone, joint and muscle back into place. It has been covered by national health insurance since April 2019.

Liquid extracted from herbal medicine is injected at acupuncture points, combining the stimulus of the needle with the action of the herbs. Volume and depth vary with the condition.

Purified bee venom is injected at acupuncture points. It is used for long-standing joint inflammation, and because responses differ between people we begin with a small test amount.

The stage after treatment has reduced pain, aimed at preventing recurrence. Exercise on a sports field and rehabilitation exercise are not the same thing; it helps when you know what the problem is.

The foundation treatments of a Korean medicine clinic. Each does something different, and they are usually combined to suit the condition rather than used alone.
