Both groups therapy last 5 days, The Japanese orthopaedic association scores (JOA) was evaluated for subjective symptoms, signs, functional activity and bladder function score. The therapeutic effect was evaluated.Results The total effective rate (94.7% vs. 82.1%;χ2=12.160,P=0.007) in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group. O, The scores of JOA at one week after treatment (20.2 ± 2.0 vs. 18.3 ± 2.8;t=3.419, P<0.01) and two weeks after treatment (24.4 ± 1. 4vs. 22.6 ± 3.0;t=3.359,P<0.01) in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group.Conclusions The single lower limb traction plus massage can improve the clinical symptoms of patients with lumbosacral tunnel syndrome, and be superior to the pelvic traction plus massage.
