Objective: The aim of this case report is to report the effect of Korean medicine treatment, including Shihogayonggolmoryo-tang, on anxiety and abdominal pulsation in a patient diagnosed with functional dyspepsia.Method: The patient was treated with Shihogayonggolmoryo-tang, including acupuncture, moxibustion, and cupping therapy. Changes in symptoms were evaluated using a self-reported numerical rating scale (NRS) score every morning. The gastrointestinal symptom score (GIS) was checked on admission and discharge day.Results: After 6 days, the NRS scores for anxiety, abdominal pulsation, abdomen discomfort, and GIS all decreased.Conclusion: The results suggest that Shihogayonggolmoryo-tang with Korean medicine could be effective for treating anxiety, abdominal pulsation, and accompanying abdomen symptoms. However, further evaluation is needed to clarify the relationship between the treatment’s effect and Shihogayonggolmoryo-tang.
