Research on the Application of Traditional Chinese Medicine Acupuncture in the Rehabilitation Treatment of Sports Injuries
Journal: Journal of Clinical Medicine Research DOI: 10.32629/jcmr.v6i3.4433
Abstract
As an integral part of demonstrated significant efficacy in the rehabilitation treatment of sports injuries. This paper explores the mechanisms of acupuncture on the human body, its clinical applications in sports injury rehabilitation, and its status and prospects in international sports medicine across three chapters. Acupuncture can unblock meridians, alleviate pain, regulate the nervous system, and enhance immune function, thereby promoting the repair of injured tissues. Clinical studies have shown that acupuncture is significantly effective in treating common sports injuries such as ankle sprains, rotator cuff injuries, and knee ligament injuries, and it exhibits unique advantages compared to physical therapy and pharmacological treatments. Despite the increasing recognition of acupuncture in international sports medicine, its widespread adoption faces challenges such as insufficient scientific evidence, standardization issues, and international acceptance. This paper aims to provide theoretical support and practical guidance for the application and development of acupuncture in sports injury rehabilitation.
