Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Lifting and thrusting with reducing method at acupoint Huatuojiaji (Extra 21) of the affected side was performed to make the limb of the affected side contract involuntarily 1-2 times in 53 cases with cervical spondylopathy. The maneuver produced a much better total effective rate than the routine maneuver (P < 0.01). The instant and long-term analgesic effects were also found superior (P < 0.01). Probably this is due to the increased serum content of morphine-like substance.
