Nursing Experience of Aromatherapy Combined with Insomnia Massage for a Patient with Insomnia due to Liver Fire Disturbing the Heart Pattern
This article systematically elaborates on the personalized nursing practice for a patient with insomnia attributed to liver fire disturbing the heart pattern, based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) syndrome differentiation theory and modern nursing concepts. By integrating aromatherapy (dual effects of olfactory regulation and transdermal absorption) with insomnia-specific massage (meridian dredging and qi-blood harmonization), a comprehensive intervention protocol was developed. The results demonstrated that this combined therapy effectively improved sleep quality without adverse reactions, confirming its synergistic efficacy and safety in insomnia management. This study provides clinical evidence for the integrated application of TCM characteristic techniques.
