Abstract
    [Objective] To observe the clinical effect of lifting chiropractic combined with two movements of Baduanjin exercise for the treatment of the young patients suffered from neck type cervical spondylosis.[Methods] A total of 174 patients who came from the Shantou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine diagnosed enrolled in the study,among them 5 patients quitted,and 169 patients completed the study. They were randomly assigned into the chiropractic-exercise group (88 cases) and the electro-acupuncture group (81 cases). Chiropractic-exercise group were treated by lifting chiropractic combined with two movements of Baduanjin exercise,and electro-acupuncture group were treated by electro-acupuncture. The clinical efficacy after treatment were observed. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Neck Pain Questionnaire(NPQ)percentage score were observed before and after treatment,as well as at 6 months and 12 months after treatment.[Results] The total effective rate in the chiropractic-exercise group and in the electro-acupuncture group were 95.5% and 90.1%. Compared with those before treatment,the VAS scores and NPQ percentage scores at all the observation time points after treatment were reduced in the two groups (P<0.05),and the efficacy of chiropractic-exercise group was better than the electro-acupuncture group (P<0.05). 2 patients relapsed in the chiropractic-exercise group and 7 patients relapsed in the electro-acupuncture group during the 12 months follow-up,and there was significant difference between two groups (P<0.05).[Conclusion] The lifting chiropractic combined with two movements of Baduanjin exercise method was superior to electro-acupuncture method in the treatment of young patients with neck type cervical spondylosis,and had a lower risk of relapse than those in the electro-acupuncture group. It can primely help to alleviate the neck and shoulder pain and restore the cervical balance.
