| Abstract
|
| [Objective] To verify the efficacy of treading and balancing manipulation on primary fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) and its improvement on insomnia.[Methods] A total of 60 patients with primary FMS were randomly divided into a treading and balancing manipulation group(treatment group), and an electro-acupuncture group(control group). Patients in treatment group received treading and balancing manipulation on their back, which manifested as treading and pressing using practitioners feet. Patients in control group were treated with electro-acupuncture at Jianjing(GB21), Jianyu(LI15), Quyuan(SI13), C4, C6, L5 Jiaji (EX-B2, C4, C6, L5), Quchi(LI11), Yanglingquan(GB34), Yinglingquan(SP9), Zhibian(BL54), Huantiao(GB30) on both sides. When achieving Deqi (soreness and tenderness), a disperse-dense wave with frequency of 4/20 Hz was attached to the needle. Both groups were treated once every three days, with ten times treatment as one course and one course in total. The scores of Revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire(FIQR) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI) of both groups were obtained and compared before and after treatment.[Results] After treatment, the scores of FIQR of both groups were lower than before(P<0.05), but had no significance between each other(P>0.05). The scores of PSQI of treatment group declined significantly(P<0.01) after treatment, while the scores of PSQI of control group had no significance before and after treatment(P>0.05). After treatment, the total efficacy of treatment group was 96.4%, while 78.6% of control group, which had significance when compared.[Conclusion] Treading and balancing manipulation could improve patients with FMS their widespread pain and tenderness and daily life ability, and its efficacy was close to electro-acupuncture. However, treading and balancing manipulation could also improve patients' sleeping problem, which was not seen in group treated with electro-acupuncture. |
