98 patients with sciatica are treated.by stimubting acupoints using a self-made electro-thermal moxibustion instrument.Results show that 82 cases arecured,8 improved and 5 effective,with the total effective rate of 96.9％.The temperature relesed from this instrument is adjustable.The electro-thermal moxibustion therapy is short in treatment duration and rapid in taking effect.Ithas no needling-induced pain and no side-effects,and is accepted preferably by patients.
98 patients with sciatica are treated -by stimulating acupoints using a self-made electrothermal moxibustion instrument. Results show that 82 cases are cured, 8 improved and 5 effective, with the total effective rate of 96. 9%. The temperature released from this instrument is adjustable. The electro-thermal moxibustion therapy is short in treatment duration and rapid in taking effect. It has no needling-induced pain and no side-effects, and is accepted preferably by patients.
