正念减压疗法是一种以"正念"为基础的心理疗法,其应用范围十分广泛,既适用于临床人群,也适用于非临床人群。早期,正念减压疗法应用于情感障碍和慢性疼痛的治疗中,辅助缓解患者的症状。随着相关研究的推进,该方法逐步用于慢性疾病(如癌症、慢性疼痛、失眠等)的辅助治疗。近年来国际研究表明其在艾滋病、更年期综合症、肠易激综合征、血压管理及免疫力提高等方面的应用产生了良好的效果。但是,正念减压疗法在我国医学领域应用的相关报道甚少。本文将对正念减压疗法在医学领域的应用进行综述,并对其作用机制进行简要阐述。
The Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction(MBSR), a psychotherapy based on mindfulness, is widely applied in non-clinical and clinical populations. MBSR is primarily used in the treatment of affective disorder and chronic pain, to help relieve the unpleasant symptoms. Later studies applied it in the field of chronic diseases(cancer, chronic pain, and insomnia etc.). In addition, recent studies have revealed its favorable effect in some new areas such as AIDS, climacteric syndrome, irritable bowel syndrome, regulation of blood pressure, and immunity improvement. However, there are few reports on the application of MBSR in medical fields in China. This article reviewed the application of mindfulness-based stress reduction in medical fields comprehensively, and discussed the corresponding mechanisms briefly.
