Abstract:
Based on the kidney controlling bones of traditional Chinese medicine theory,this article researched the effects of treating osteoporosis with the method of kidney-tonifying and bone-strengthening massage therapy.Commonly used method of modeling included ovariectomized rat model of osteoporosis (OVX),senile rat model of osteoporosis and glucocorticoid induced rat model of osteoporosis (GIOP),kidney-tonifying and bone-strengthening massage therapy were applied on these models,and the rat bone mineral density (BMD) and biochemical marker of bone metabolism changes were observed.Confirmed by animals experiment,it was effective to repair a bone in all rat osteoporosis models with kidney-tonifying and bone-strengthening massage,which provided theoretical basis and methodological guidance for the use of kidney-tonifying and bone-strengthening massage therapy in the clinical treatment of osteoporosis.
