Abstract

<p>It is no exaggeration that the concept of psychosomatic medicine and its perspective on patient care has now widely penetrated all aspects of medicine. Today, the relationship between psychosocial stress and physical illness is commonly treated in departments other than psychosomatic medicine. One could argue that the concept of psychosomatic medicine has changed from being innovative when it first emerged to being universal. While the appeal of such medicine should remain the same today, it seems important to change and develop its appeal in accordance with the times. We conducted a questionnaire survey of psychosomatic physicians to determine whether the definition and concept of psychosomatic disorders should remain the same, and what is needed for the future. Many agreed that the current status of psychosomatic disorders is acceptable while many stated that a strategy for creating and communicating a new appeal is needed for the future.</p>
