Abstract

|
|
Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of Chuna manual therapy for irritable bowel syndrome.
Methods: The researcher conducted search across the 3 electronic databases (Pubmed, Wanfang data(included CAJ) and Oasis) to find all of randomized controlled clinical trials(RCTs) that used Chuna manual therapy for irritable bowel syndrome
Results: Eight RCTs met inclusion criteria. The meta-analysis showed positive results for the use of Chuna manual therapy in terms of the therapeutic effects or symptom score compared to west medication, herbal medication, acupucture and moxa treatment alone.
Conclusions: The review found encouraging but limited evidence of Chuna manual therapy for irritable bowel syndrome. More highquality clinical trials research is needed on Chuna, manipulative therapy of irritable bowel syndrome.
