简要总结
Press tack needle is one of the acupuncture modalities in the form of needles that are attached to the skin, and can be left attached to the skin for several days which makes its use much easier than conventional acupuncture.
The purpose of this study was to determine how the effect of press tack needle acupuncture on leg muscle strength performed on sports students.
Research subjects as many as 30 people were randomized into two groups, namely the intervention group and the control group. In the intervention group, acupuncture treatment was performed with a press tack needle at acupuncture points on the legs. The leg muscle strength was measured using a leg dynamometer before and after the acupuncture intervention. Analyzed the difference in mean leg muscle strength before and after the intervention, and between the two groups.
