Kết quả phương pháp nhĩ áp kết hợp phép thư giãn của Nguyễn Văn Hưởng trong điều trị mất ngủ không thực tổn

Abstract

Subjects and methods: A prospective clinical intervention study comparing pre- and post-treatment outcomes was conducted on 60 patients diagnosed with insomnia of the Heart–Spleen deficiency and Yin deficiency with fire blazing types at Phu Tho Provincial Traditional Medicine and Rehabilitation Hospital between March and August 2025. The patients were divided into two groups based on syndrome type (n = 30 each) to compare treatment outcomes between groups. Treatment effectiveness was evaluated based on changes in sleep duration, sleep onset latency, sleep efficiency, and total score on the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI).

            Results: After 20 days of treatment, both the Heart–Spleen deficiency and Yin deficiency with fire blazing groups showed significant improvements from baseline in sleep duration, sleep onset latency, sleep efficiency, and PSQI total score (p<0.05). There were no significant between-group differences in the magnitude of improvement (p>0.05).

Conclusion: Auricular acupressure combined with the Nguyen Van Huong relaxation technique is an effective treatment for insomnia in both Heart–Spleen deficiency and Yin deficiency with fire blazing patterns.
