Clinical Observation on Lumbar Muscle Fasciitis Treated by Siling and Tuina Exercise Technique Combined with Kinesiology Tape by Yi DING, Chenchen GUO, Ning WANG, LI Li

“…Rehabilitation follow-up was conducted three months after the end of treatment, and the recurrence rate was calculated.Results:After four courses of treatment, the scores of McGill simplified scale of two groups were lower than those before treatment, and the decrease was more obvious in the treatment group than that in the control group(<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05);the MPF value of the dorsalis multifidus and erector spinalis were decreased in both groups, but the MPF value decreased more significantly in the treatment group than that in the control group(<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05);the recovery rate of the treatment group was higher than that of the control group(<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05);the recurrence rate in the treatment group was lower than that in the control group(<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05).Conclusion:The treatment of lumbar muscle fasciitis with Siling and Tuina exercise technique combined with KT is more effective than that of simple KT, and the long-term effect is better than that of simple KT.This comprehensive rehabilitation program has the advantages of simple operation and low recurrence rate, and is worthy of clinical promotion and application.…”
