금연침(耳鍼) 시술을 통해 살펴본 대전지역 고등학생의 흡연 실태조사

Abstract

After applying anti-smoking acupuncture to 756 high school students at least 4 times, I surveyed about the effect of the therapy. The result of the survey is as follows. 1. The age to start smoking is getting lower. And the rate of female students' smoking is increasing significantly. 2. The survey shows that students started to smoke mainly because of curiosity, stress, peer pressure, and their misunderstanding which the way to smoke looks cool. 3. The anti-smoking acupuncture therapy is expected to decrease the smoking desire because the applicants usually experience headache, dizziness, gastroenteric trouble after the treatment. 4. Students complained about earache and inconvenience of washing. 5. The result shows that the anti-smoking acupuncture therapy is generally efficacious, but the virtue of the therapy is much better with the students' willingness to stop smoking.
