The current globalized society has widely requested you to participate into more competitive social activities. These activities continuously push you out in exposure of undefined negative facts which are named stress, that cause various diseases connected with attenuation of the autonomic nervous system. This paper demonstrates that ‘Qi Energy Healing' as an complementary- alternative medicine effects on elevation of capabilities in regards with the autonomic nervous system which prevents from the stress, influencing the self-treatment living body does.

Nineteen participants(47.4% female, 52.6% male) at Seoul were assigned into two experimental condition - ‘Qi Energy Healing' condition and the ‘Ordinary Relaxation’ condition. In each condition, participants first completed researching questionnaire regarding current mental, physical status and social behavior and then were examined to see the difference of FDA, HRT, Physical Resistance through the heart rate variability.

According to the researching questionnaire, the result indicated that participants experienced 8.5% and 23.3% rate of de-stress in each experiment. Implication of this finding is that the ‘Qi Energy Healing' is significantly more likely to influence on reducing and diminishing the stress.

In addition, based on the comparative between before and after the experiments in a statistical perspective, there is no significant relation with 8 facts - Physical Resistance , HRT, TP, VLF, LF, HF, Norm LF, Norm HF - after ‘Ordinary Relaxation'. However, in experiment of ‘Qi Energy Healing’ treatment, the result showed clear distinction on 6 fact - Physical Resistance, HRT, TP, VLF, LF, HF.

Our findings established the link between effectiveness of ‘Qi Energy Healing' as an complementary-alternative medicine and the autonomic nervous system. Implications of the findings should be useful for a future research.
