Into the book
As the word 'autonomous' suggests, the autonomic nervous system refers to the nerves that operate on their own without our awareness.
Our bodies regulate their own responses, such as controlling blood pressure, breathing, digesting food, secreting hormones, and regulating body temperature, when their internal state changes or when they are stimulated from the outside.
Even if we don't pay attention to it, our body automatically maintains balance and plays an important role in keeping our lives safe.
--- p.23, from “The Link Between Stress and the Autonomic Nervous System”

When you get a headache, the first thing you worry about is whether there is something wrong with your brain, but in fact, most headaches are not problems with the brain itself.
99% of headaches are not caused by serious conditions such as cerebral hemorrhage or brain tumors, and the main causes are muscle tension, nerve compression, vascular problems, and autonomic nervous system imbalances.
Additionally, tension headaches are not just a problem confined to the head.
As headaches recur, the sympathetic nerves become more excited and the state of tension persists.
As a result, it is often accompanied by not only headaches, but also chest tightness, palpitations, and indigestion.
--- p.72, from “I have a severe headache and feel dizzy”

The spine is not just a simple support structure, but a 'nerve passage' closely connected to the nervous system, so spinal health can be seen as directly linked to the health of the autonomic nervous system.
Spinal surgery usually involves cutting muscles at the front or back of the spine and shaving or removing part of the vertebrae where there is a herniated disc or stenosis.
During this process, damage to the muscles, ligaments, and tendons surrounding the spine is inevitable, and adhesions or stiffness around the spine also commonly occur.

--- p.125, from “Redness worsened after spinal surgery”

If the sympathetic nervous system is continuously activated due to stress, poor posture, or hormonal changes, the body's tension may not be relieved, which may worsen the pain.
If sympathetic hyperactivity becomes chronic, the nervous system becomes hypersensitive and the central nervous system's ability to regulate pain decreases, which can lead to fibromyalgia.
Additionally, when the sympathetic nerves are overactivated, there is a decrease in serotonin secretion, a decrease in growth hormone, and a decrease in the stress response of adrenal cortex hormones.
These changes all coincide with physiological characteristics commonly found in patients with fibromyalgia.
--- p.170, from “My whole body hurts, but the hospital said there was no problem”

Many people ask, 'Isn't this injection treatment only effective for a short time?'
In reality, local anesthetics only work for about 30 minutes to 1-2 hours, so it is understandable that such questions arise.
However, this treatment aims to go beyond simply relieving symptoms during that time and restore the balance between the brain and the autonomic nervous system by repeatedly resting the sensitive sympathetic nerves.
There is an explanation I often give to patients in my outpatient clinic.
“Just as taking a 30-minute nap when you’re really tired helps you relax, giving your nerves a short rest also helps them recover their functions.”
--- p.222, from “Injection treatment that gives the nerves a moment of rest”

Publisher's Review
The hospital said I was fine, but why do I still feel sick?
Headache, fatigue, indigestion…
Neurological symptoms that even doctors didn't know about are all due to the "autonomic nervous system."


Modern people's daily lives are filled with pain and symptoms, big and small.
If you go to the hospital for a checkup due to sudden pain, there is no obvious abnormality, and the doctor prescribes medication, saying it is due to stress.
But even if you take medicine, the symptoms do not go away.
“To You Who Still Feels Pain Even When You Say There’s Nothing Wrong” is a book for those who find themselves in such frustrating situations.
This book states that many diseases that were previously considered stress-related can all be explained by 'dysautonomous nervous system disorder.'

The autonomic nervous system is a system that regulates basic life activities such as blood pressure, heart rate, body temperature, breathing, and digestion.
The sympathetic nerves, which are responsible for tension, and the parasympathetic nerves, which are responsible for relaxation, are intertwined and influence our bodily functions and mood in an invisible way.
However, stress disrupts the balance of the autonomic nervous system.
The imbalance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves can cause headaches, tinnitus, chronic fatigue, facial flushing, heart palpitations, stomach pain, shortness of breath, and even stroke, Parkinson's disease, and dementia.


Author Oh Min-cheol says that true recovery begins when we focus on restoring the balance of the autonomic nervous system rather than focusing on eliminating stressors.
Dr. Oh's patients say that even though they had been to several hospitals without any improvement in their symptoms, they found new lives after receiving treatment for their autonomic nervous system.
This book contains a comprehensive discussion of the causes, management, and treatment of autonomic nervous system dysfunction, based on the author's clinical experience and patient cases of over 10 years of treating autonomic nervous system disorders.

The beginning of true healing that restores balance between body and mind
Building a stress-resistant body


Part 1 of this book explains basic concepts of the autonomic nervous system and the symptoms and causes of dysautonomia, while Part 2 connects emotions and dysautonomia.
The autonomic nervous system is involved not only in the body's physiological responses, but also in symptoms that were previously considered mental problems, such as mood swings, flushing, panic attacks, and anxiety disorders.
For readers who blame their "sensitive nature," the section of this book on managing "emotional flushing" provides a direct solution.

Part 3 addresses issues on the "peripheral nerve wire," including chronic pain, digestive problems, hair loss, immune problems, early signs of Parkinson's disease, and drug dependence.
The book's greatest insight is its integrative perspective that the peripheral nervous system, the immune system, and the sensory system are all connected to the autonomic nervous system.
If the entire body is connected as a single system and the autonomic nervous system is the one that directs it, then simply managing the autonomic nervous system could significantly improve the quality of life of modern people.

The book offers a wide range of alternatives for easing the autonomic nervous system, including five-minute deep breathing, regular sleep, diet management, steaming, and therapy.
The 'Appendix' containing the latest hospital treatment information will serve as a practical guide for patients.
The moment you close this book, you can take the first step toward breaking free from the daily grind of vague neurotic symptoms and taking control of your health.
