| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The efficacy of aroma touch therapy with Citrus junos oil, intended to relieve malaise in patients with cancer associated with chronic pain, was proven quantitatively in patients with lung and liver metastases after surgery for rectal cancer. The therapy decreased malaise and pain, improving patient’s symptoms and psychological state as well as quality of life and strength to fight the disease. We verified this by quantifying deep brain activity in healthy individuals using occipital alpha-2 rhythm powers (10-13 Hz). The essential oil relieved post-exercise malaise by rejuvenating the brain, which manifested as decreased sincipital alpha-1 rhythm powers and stable occipital (O1) alpha-2 rhythm powers. The correlation between the deep brain activity index and pain ratings exhibited a V-shaped curve and dynamics. Under simulated pain that was independent of emotional states, YTT optimized the slow fluctuation components of the occipital alpha-2 rhythm powers and induced analgesia.
