Abstract

|
Objectives: This study was designed to compare depletion and cupping therapy with cupping therapy on acute lumbosacral strain patients.
Methods: This study was carried out on the 36 acute lumbosacral strain patients. We divided these patients into 2 groups. The Group¥° was treated with the depletion and cupping therapy and the Group¥± was treated with the cupping therapy. We evaluated by visual analogue scale(VAS) score after each treatment and Oswestry disability index(ODI) score before and after treatment.
Result: The VAS score of Group¥° was statistically lower than Group¥± after 1st treatment. But there was no significant difference between two groups after 2st treatment. In each group, the VAS score and ODI score was statistically decreased after treatment.
Conclusions: In this study, depletion and cupping therapy was more effective than cupping therapy after 1st treatment, but there was no difference between two kinds of cupping therapy after 2nd treatment on acute lumbosacral strain patients.
