Methods Fifty three free combat athletes with insomnia were treated with acupuncture at ＂four gates＂（LI 4 and LR 3）. The treatment was given once daily, 5 days were one course. Flicker fusion frequency and clinical efficacy were evaluated after two courses. Results Flicker fusion frequencies before and after treatment were（235.40±4.12） Hz and（298.56±5.35） Hz, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant（P0.05）. Total effective rate was 92.45%（49/53） with a cure rate of 52.83%（29/53）. Conclusion The clinical efficacy of acupuncture at ＂four gates＂（LI 4 and LR 3） is significant in treatment of sport insomnia.展开更多
