Back pain is a universal problem affecting people from all regions of the world. Since relief using modern systems of medicine is hardly forthcoming, the efficacy of indigenously developed Acharya Technique was assessed. Using purposive sampling, data was collected from 30 industrial workers from Erode (TN). It was found that while 36.7 percent participants had complete discomfort in back pain before resorting to Acharya Technique, after its administration, 40percent had only mild discomfort in back pain, thus showing the effectiveness of this technique. It is suggested to include Acharya Technique in continuing educational programmes on wider scale.
背痛是一个全球性问题,影响着世界各个地区的人们。由于现代医学体系很难带来缓解效果,因此对本土开发的阿查里亚疗法的疗效进行了评估。采用目的抽样法,从来自埃罗德(泰米尔纳德邦)的30名产业工人中收集数据。结果发现,在采用阿查里亚疗法之前,36.7%的参与者背部疼痛完全不适,而在采用该疗法后,40%的参与者背部疼痛仅有轻微不适,这表明了该疗法的有效性。建议在更大范围内将阿查里亚疗法纳入继续教育项目。
