Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of a new-type moxibustion box in treating cervical spondylotic radiculopathy.Methods Sixty patients with cervical spondylotic radiculopathy were randomly allocated to treatment and control groups, 30 cases each. The treatment group received nape-eight-needle acupuncture plus new-type moxibustion box therapy and the control group, nape-eight-needle acupuncture plus conventional moxibustion box therapy. After 10 treatments, the NPQ score, the symptom and sign score and the VAS score were recorded in the two groups and the clinical therapeutic effects were compared between the two groups.Results The total effective rate was 100.0% in the treatment group versus 83.3% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). There were statistically significant pre-/post-treatment differences in the NPQ score, the symptom and sign score and the VAS score in the two groups (P<0.01,P<0.05). There were statistically significant post-treatment differences in the NPQ score, the symptom and sign score and the VAS score between the treatment and control groups (P<0.05).ConclusionNape-eight-needle acupuncture plus a new-type moxibustion box is an effective way to treat cervical spondylotic radiculopathy.
