Sliding cupping was applied on the back, followed by moxibustion along the running course of the governor vessel. After 6 treatments, the symptoms and signs of patients were evaluated according to guideline and reported.ResultsCompared with before treatment, the score of symptoms and sighs all decreased after treatment(7.64 ± 1.62 vs 1.86 ± 0.65 ,2.57 ± 1.26 vs 0.96 ± 0.57, both P < 0.05). Among 28 patients, the treatment was remarkably effective in 14 patients, effective in 12 patients and no effect in 2 patients. The total effective rate was 92.86%. No severer adverse events happened during the treatment.ConclusionThe combined treatment of moxibustion along the governor vessel and sliding cupping therapy could be effective for allergic rhinitis, and may require further investigation for its effectiveness.展开更多
