摘要
Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of treating insomnia with single-finger pushing manipulation. Methods: Sixty patients diagnosed with insomnia were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 30 subjects in each. The treatment group was treated by single-finger pushing tuina manipulation of inducing yang to yin plus conventional medication, and the control group was prescribed with conventional medication only. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was adopted to detect the sleep condition before and after treatments. Results: The scores in the treatment group were significantly better than that in the control group (P〈0.05), especially the improvement of the score of sleeping medications (P〈0.01). Conclusion: The single-finger pushing tuina manipulation of inducing yang to yin can efficiently improve the sleep quality of insomnia patients, and obviously reduce the dose of sleeping medications, making it an ideal non-medication therapy.
