Methods: 78 inpatients were randomly divided into acupuncture + moxibustion (acumoxi) group (n = 40) and Western medicine (control) group (n =38). Acupuncture needles were inserted separately into the points about 0. 5 cun beside the spinous processes of the cervical vertebral1-7. Results: The cure rates and total effective rates of acumoxi group and control group were 70.00%, 95.00%, 31 . 58% and 92% respectively, with the cure rate of the acumoxi group being significantly higher than that of control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the mean velocity of blood flow of the vertebral artery and basal artery decreased significantly (P <0.05, 0.01) . Conclusion: Acupuncture of cervical plexus plus moxibustion is effective definitely in treatment of cervical vertigo and superior to that of control group.展开更多
