Objective:To explore the impacts of Qiuxu(GB40)-to-Zhaohai(KI6)motion acupuncture combined with meridian massage on shoulder range of motion(ROM)and self-care ability in patients with rotator cuff injury.Methods:A total of 88 patients with rotator cuff injury were randomly divided into the observation group(n=44)and the control group(n=44)according to the envelope drawing method.The control group was treated with meridian massage;on which basis,the observation group was also treated with GB40-to-KI6 motion acupuncture.Clinical efficacy,and the changes in shoulder function,joint activity,and self-care ability were compared between the two groups.Results:The clinical efficacy of the observation group was 95.45％(42/44),which was significantly higher than 77.27％(34/44)of the control group(P＜0.05).Both groups showed varying degrees of improvements in daily activity,shoulder pain,joint mobility,and shoulder muscle strength scores after the treatment(P＜0.05),and the improvements were more significant in the observation group than those in the control group(P＜0.01).The external rotation,internal rotation,abduction,forward flexion,and backward extension of the shoulder joints showed obvious improvements after the treatment compared with those before the treatment in both groups(P＜0.05),and the improvements were more significant in the observation group than those in the control group(P＜0.01).The FID score was increased after the treatment compared with that before the treatment in the two groups(P＜0.05),and the increase was more significant in the observation group than that in the control group(P＜0.01).Conclusion:The combination of GB40-to-KI6 motion acupuncture and meridian massage can obviously improve the shoulder joint mobility in patients with rotator cuff injury,and enhance their self-care ability.
