Abstract
Our institute was established in 1979 with the mission given by the Ehime prefectural government and Medical Association to supply traditional medical care under the leadership of MDs. We developed The concept of chronological analysis for researching individual health needs and also instituted associated systems such as chronological analysis care system and chronological audit system. Through these systems, our staff of therapists developed a common integrated cognitive perspective and we established the identity of our traditional medical care as a system in which supervising physicians offer leadership of a team care system of traditional medicine. In this way we have fulfilled the heavy mission given to us by the government and medical association.
We were also given a heavy mission to research about the individuation of each traditional medical technique, by seniors such as Takeshi Itakura. For this purpose we adopted the chronological analysis care system as the field scientific method of case study. These systems have been useful to improve the care level of the staff and also useful for training program for post graduate medical and traditional medical students.
