Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical effect of moxibustion on body sub-health fatigue state.Methods 120 cases of body sub-health patients were randomly divided into A,B,C three groups,with 40 cases in each group.Group A was treated with moxibustion,group B was treated with acupuncture therapy,and group C (control group) did not receive any measure of treatments.Fatigue scale (FS) was adopted to the three groups respectively for measuring physical fatigue score,mental fatigue score and total fatigue score before and after the treatment.Treatment efficacy was evaluated and analyzed after three weeks of continuous treatment.Results The total score of fatigue scale was 6.10 ± 2.47、6.82± 2.36、and 10.10±2.66 respectively in group A,group B and group C.Compared with group C,the difference in group A and group B was statistically significant (P＜0.01).Compared with group B,the difference in group A was not statistically significant (P＞0.05) ; The Physical fatigue points of group A,B,C was 2.46± 2.06、3.60 ± 2.24 and 5.03 ± 2.66 respectively.Compared with C group,the difference in group A and group B was statistically significant (P＜0.01).Compared with group B,the difference in group A was statistically significant (P＜0.05).Conclusions Moxibustion and acupuncture can effectively improve patients total body sub-health state of fatigue.Moxibustion treatment showed better effects in alleviating physical fatigue,
