I don't use medication
It has the purpose of controlling physical function through physical stimulation 마타이
It is classified as **'complementary body stimulation therapy'** and is internationally recognized as a form of Complementary Bodywork.
2. Anatomical physiological foundation – tissue-specific mechanism of action
● the skin system
Compression stimulation stimulates the **Machineoreceptors** of the skin, activating the nerve suppression circuit at the spinal cord level.
This reduces pain and regulates skin tension (Skin Turgor).
● the muscular system
It is the most important area of action for dry horses, and depth control techniques that can stimulate the deep muscle layer are essential.
It promotes the removal of fatigue substances (lactic acid, etc.) and contributes to the elastic recovery of the fascia.
● the nervous system
Autonomic nervous system regulation: parasympathetic activation → promote digestion, decrease heart rate, induce sleep
Improved sensory integration: Contributes to suppressing sensory hypersensitivity in chronic pain patients and raising pain thresholds
3. This is what I saw in the theory of sensory integration therapy
According to the theory of sensory integration, humans process information in their brains about environmental stimuli and then determine the appropriate response. Dry horses restore sensory integration function in the following ways.
Tactile Defensiveness Reduced: Autism Spectrum Children, PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) Patients, etc., tend to be hypersensitivity to skin irritation, which is repeated and predictable, and slowly desensitizes it.
Strengthening Body Self-Awareness: The pressure on muscles and joints makes one feel the boundaries of one's body clearly, which is closely related to a sense of mental stability.
4. Health Economic Perspectives – Cost-effectiveness as Non-Medical Treatment
In modern society, due to the aging and increasing number of chronic diseases, medical costs continue to increase. Among them, dry horse has the following advantages as a non-medical and non-pharmaceutical treatment.
Reduced healthcare utilization: People who regularly receive dry horses have reduced doses of anti-inflammatory and painkillers, which also have a positive impact on health insurance finances.
Contributing to the prevention of senile diseases: Fall prevention, increased range of motion of joints, and stress relief create indirect reduction in medical expenses.
High cost-effectiveness ratio: Dry horses are constructed with a high return on investment (ROI)** because they can create effects with only the technology of the operator without special equipment or drugs.
5. Cultural Sociological Context – The Position of Dry Horse in Korean Society
In Korea, the term gunma was often consumed in a distorted way, but its original traditional value can be understood in the following aspects.
Body view in Confucian culture: In a culture that forbids touching other people's bodies, dry horses minimize psychological resistance by providing non-invasive, understated contact through clothing.
Recognition as a 'cultivation': The process of learning and performing dry horse skills is not just a vocational education, but is also considered an act that requires self-control, concentration, and manners.
Functioning as a Community Health Resource: Recently, there has also been an increase in the number of free dry horse programs run by health promotion centers centered on local governments.
6. Linkage with Therapeutic Touch Theory
Gunma is also closely related to the Therapeutics Touch theory, which consists of the following three components.
Intent – Intention of the operator's inner focus and healing
Equilibrium Detection (Centering) – the operator's psychological stability is delivered
Energy flow modulation – bioenergy exchange through direct contact
The dry horse practitioner does not simply convey skills, but plays the role of coordinating with the other person through his feelings, breathing, and body.
7. Conclusion: Dry Horse is a Modern Health Philosophy Practice
Dry horse is not just a hand-pressing massage without oil. It is a combination of the following practices.
Evidence-driven stimulation therapy based on anatomy and physiology
A way to regulate the nervous system according to sensory integration theory
health-economic resources to lower health-care costs
culturally restrained and ethical ways of healing
performative health practice that unites the mind and body
