Clinical Efficacy of McKenzie Exercise Therapy Combined with Cervical Joint Loosening and Auricular Point Pressure Bean in the Treatment of Cervical Type Cervical Spondylosis
Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of McKenzie exercise therapy combined with cervical joint loosening and auricular point compression bean in the treatment of cervical type cervical spondylosis.Method:A total of 160 patients with cervical type cervical spondylosis admitted to the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from January 2021 to August 2022 were selected as subjects,and divided into control group and study group by random number table method,with 80 cases in each group.The control group were received McKenzie exercise therapy;the study group were used McKenzie exercise therapy combined with cervical joint loosening and auricular point compression bean treatment,both groups received continuous treatment for 3 months.The neck disability index(NDI)and pain catastrophizing scale(PCS)were used to evaluated cervical function and pain degree.The cervical range of motion,positive rate of gaze stability(GS)and positive rate of eye movement test(EMT)were compared between the two groups.Result:After treatment,the NDI score of the study group was lower than that of the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).After treatment,the scores of pain repeated contemplation,pain helplessness and pain exaggeration and total score of PCS in the study group were lower than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).After treatment,the range of cervical flexion,extension,left and right lateral flexion and left and right rotation in the study group were higher than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).After treatment,the positive rates of GS and EMT in the study group were lower than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:McKenzie exercise therapy combined with cervical joint loosening and auricular point pressure bean in the treatment of cervical type cervical spondylosis can effectively restore the function of cervical spine,reduce pain,increase the range of cervical motion,and improve the coordination and stability of cervical nerves.
