Preliminary Comparative Study on Zhuang Medicine Foot Bath and Abdominal Acupuncture in Treatment of Patients with Spleen Yang Deficiency Syndrome
30 patients with spleen yang deficiency syndrome were treated with Zhuang medicine foot bath,and 20 patients with spleen Yang deficiency syndrome were treated with abdominal acupuncture combined with moxibustion.The local temperatures of Yintang acupoint,Laogong acupoint and Yongquan acupoint before and after treatment were measured by infrared forehead thermometer,and the change characteristics were analyzed.The warming Yang effects of Zhuang medicine foot bath and abdominal acupuncture combined with moxibustion were compared,and the mechanisms of the two treatment methods were discussed.Before and after Zhuang medicine foot bath,there were 13 patients with elevated temperature at Yongquan acupoint,accounting for 43.3%of the treated patients;There were 24 patients with elevated temperature at Laogong acupoint,accounting for 80%of the treated patients;There were 27 patients with elevated temperature rise at Yongquan acupoint,accounting for 90%of the treated patients.Before and after abdominal acupuncture combined with moxibustion treatment,there were 12 patients with elevated temperature at Yongquan acupoint,accounting for 60.0%of the treated patients;There were 11 patients with elevated temperature at Laogong acupoint,accounting for 55.0%of the treated patients;There were 15 patients with elevated temperature at Yongquan acupoint,accounting for 75%of the treated patients.The study shows that there is no statistical significance between the two treatment methods of Zhuang medicine foot bath and abdominal acupuncture combined with moxibustion on warming Yang effect of triple energizers and five acupoints.Both Zhuang medicine foot bath and abdominal acupuncture combined with moxibustion can increase the temperature of triple energizers and five acupoints in most patients with spleen Yang deficiency,and have therapeutic effects of warming Yang and inducing fire to return to the original.Zhuang medicine foot bath has a better warming Yang therapeutic effect on the middle and lower energizers of the human body than abdominal acupuncture combined with moxibustion.
