Abstract

OBJECTIVE: needling techniques at the positive reaction points as compared with the conventional acupuncture. METHODS: points. The supplementary acupoints were Yinxi (HT 6) and Geshu (BL 17). The treatment was given once every two days, 10 treatments as one course in the two groups. Separately, before treatment, after the 1st treatment and at the end of one course of treatment, the scores of symptoms and physical signs and the scores of visual analogous scale (VAS) were observed in the two groups. The comprehensive clinical effects were compared between the two groups at the end of treatment. RESULTS: <0.05). CONCLUSION: needling techniques at the positive reaction points achieves the superior effects as compared with the conventional acupuncture.
