Abstract：Objective：To observe the clinical effect of mountain-burning warming needling on cervical spondylosis of wind-cold-damp type. Methods： A total of 70 patients with cervical spondylosis of windcold- damp type were selected as study objects，and were divided into the treatment group and the control group with 35 cases in each group by simple random method. Among them，one case dropped off in the treatment group， and thirty-four cases actually completed. The treatment group was treated with mountain-burning warming needling， and the control group was treated with conventional acupuncture. Acupuncture was respectively applied once every other day，three times for one course of treatment，and a total of one course. After treatment， Visual Analogue Scale of pain (VAS) and Northwick Park Questionnaire (NPQ) were used to evaluate the improvement of pain and cervical spondylosis before and after treatment， and the temperature changes of local needling area were observed. Results： The total effective rate was 94.1% in the treatment group and 71.4% in the control group， the difference being significant (P＜0.05). After treatment， the VAS scores in both groups were reduced when compared with those before treatment (P＜0.05)， and the decrease of VAS score in the treatment group was more significant than that in the control group (P＜0.05). After treatment， the NPQ scores in both groups were reduced when compared with those before treatment (P＜0.05)，and the NPQ score in the treatment group was lower than that in the control group (P＜0.05). Before the first， second and third treatments， there was no significant difference in the mean temperature of skin boundary area between the two groups (P＞ 0.05). After treatment， the average temperature of skin boundary area in the treatment group was higher than that in the control group at the same course of treatment(P＜0.05). Conclusion： Mountain-burning warming needling can improve the therapeutic effect on patients with cervical spondylosis of wind-colddamp type and enhance their quality of life as well as release pain and discomfort. Its mechanism may be related to increasing the skin temperature around C4 ~ 7 Jiaji (EX-B2) point on both sides.
