Abstract
Objective: To study and analyze the value of acupuncture and massage combined application in community health services for patients with lumbar disc herniation. Methods: 60 patients with lumbar disc herniation admitted to a community health service center from September 2021 to November 2023 were randomly divided into a study group and control group, with 30 cases in each group. The control group received conventional treatment for lumbar disc herniation, including drug analgesia, traction therapy, etc., while the study group received acupuncture and massage combined treatment. After 8 weeks of treatment, the therapeutic effect, functional recovery before and after treatment and core muscle endurance of the two groups were evaluated and compared. Results: After treatment, the total effective rate of the study group was higher than that of the control group; the ODI and VAS scores of the study group were lower than those of the control group; the JOA scores of the study group were higher than those of the control group; the endurance test time of the lumbar and abdominal isometric muscles was longer than that of the control group, with statistical significance (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The combined application of acupuncture and massage in community health services for patients with lumbar disc herniation has a high effect, can promote the functional recovery of patients, and improve core muscle endurance.
