Abstract:
Objective: To observe the clinical effect of moxibustion on gastralgia of deficiency cold type. Methods: Sixty patients were randomly divided into 2 groups. The 30 patients in the treatment group were treated with Zhao's thunder-fire moxibustion while the other 30 patients in the control group were treated with oral medicine. Results: After one course of treatment, the total effective rate of treatment group was notably higher than that of the control group, showing statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion: The total effective rate of thunder-fire moxibustion on gastralgia of deficiency cold type was better than that of the traditional Chinese medicine in relieving epigastralgia.
