However, there are no bibliometric papers that have examined the topic of mind-body therapies. Therefore, it is necessary to review and sort out the current status, hotspots and frontiers of mind-body therapies.
Studies related to mind-body therapies during the period of Web of Science 1999-01/2024-07 were searched, and R language was applied to analyze the data and CiteSpace, Vosviewer software, was used to generate visualization maps.
A total of 29,710 relevant articles were included in the study. The country with the highest number of publications was the United States, followed by China and the United Kingdom, and the prolific author was Wang Yuan.
