| Abstract
|
| [Objective] To investigate the clinical effect of tension balance acupuncture combined with core muscle training on chronic non-specific low back pain（CNLBP）. [Methods] From December 2020 to December 2023，102 patients with CNLBP admitted to the Dongguan Hospital of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were selected and divided into observation group（51 cases） and control group（51 cases） by random number table method. The control group received core muscle training for 4 weeks，5 times a week，and the observation group received tension balance acupuncture combined with core muscle training for 4 weeks，5 times a week. The surface electromyography of lumbar and abdominal muscles，infrared thermography of the waist，pain degree，lumbar function，inflammatory factors and quality of life were evaluated before and after treatment. [Results] AAfter treatment，infrared thermal imaging temperature，SF-36 scores of vertical spinal muscle in both groups were increased compared with those before treatment（P<0.05）. Neuromuscular response time and peak time of EMG amplitude，VAS score，Oswestry disability index（ODI），serum levels of interleukin-6（IL-6） and tumor necrosis factor-α（TNF-α） were decreased compared with those before treatment（P<0.05）. Infrared thermal imaging temperature，SF-36 score was higher than control group（P<0.05），neuromuscular response time and peak time of EMG amplitude，VAS score and ODI index were lower than control group（P<0.05）. [Conclusion] Core muscle training combined with tension balance acupuncture can inhibit the release of inflammatory factors，relieve pain，enhance lumbar function and improve quality of life in CNLBP patients. |
