First, massage therapy: massage the muscles on both sides of the lumbar spine with the palm root and thumb for several times to achieve the purpose of relaxing the muscles, and then press the "positive reaction point" of the waist and juluo, Huantiao, Shenshu, Zhishi, Dachangshu and Weizhong points with the thumb again, and each point can be pressed repeatedly for 2 minutes. Then with the lumbar extension plate method, the patient took the lateral position, knead the waist several times with the palm, so that the local warm feeling, at the same time with the waist side plate method, left and right each time. Pull the affected side first, then the healthy side. Patients with lower limb radiation pain can use rolling method locally, and massage Weizhong, Yanglingquan, juegu and other points. For scoliosis, lumbar traction can be done before massage.

Then knead both sides of the lumbar spine (pain point) with the elbow for 20-30 times, press Tianshu and Qihai for one minute, and pinch the back of the leg (gastrocnemius area) for 3-5 times. The above techniques are performed once a day in the morning and once a day in the evening. 　　

Third, pointer therapy: the patient lies on his back, the operator stands in front of the patient's foot, with his right index finger flicking the left foot Kunlun point, when flicking the right foot Kunlun point, with his left index finger tip on the point, first downward pressure, and then slide to the lateral malleolus When plucking, the operator felt a tendon rolling under the finger, while the patient felt numbness or electric shock and radiated to the heart of the foot. (Note: if there is only pain but no electric shock, the low back pain can be alleviated, but can not be eliminated. Only when there is electric shock like sensation and numbness to the heart of the foot, the low back pain will disappear.)
