Those in the observation group practiced Yi Jin Jing（Sinew-transforming Qigong Exercises） plus tuina therapy; whereas those in the control group received only tuina therapy. Tuina therapy was conducted every other day, 20 min every time for 1 month and Yi Jin Jing（Sinew-transforming Qigong Exercises） was conducted once a day for 1 month. The therapeutic effects were assessed by visual analogue scale（VAS） and Constant-Murley scale.Results： After treatment, the VAS score and Constant-Murley scale were substantially improved, showing statistical significances（P〈0.01）; the Constant-Murley scale in the observation group was better than that in the control group,showing a statistical significance（P〈0.01）; the effective rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, between-group comparison showed a statistical significance（P〈0.01）.Conclusion： Yi Jin Jing（Sinew-transforming Qigong Exercises） plus tuina and tuina alone have a verified effect in treating SP,and the former can achieve a better effect than the later.展开更多
