简要总结
The aim is to investigate whether adding small needle-knife therapy to standard Western medicine enhances the treatment of frozen shoulder by evaluating its impact on microcirculation and meridian unblocking.
详细描述
The aim of this research is to investigate whether the combination of small needle-knife therapy with conventional Western medicine treatment can enhance therapeutic effects compared to conventional treatment methods. In addition to clinical measurements of joint mobility and relevant scales, this study integrates instruments such as Laser Doppler Flowmetry (LDF) and pulse diagnosis devices. These non-invasive methods are employed to evaluate the microcirculation performance of patients with frozen shoulder before and after conventional Western medicine treatment or combined treatment with small needle-knife therapy. The objective is to understand the effects of small needle-knife therapy on the microcirculation and meridian unblocking in frozen shoulder patients.
