Abstract :
The purpose of this work is to investigate the mechanism of Needle-Knife therapy in treating degenerative cervical spondylosis. With the change on the way of life and work, the incidence of degenerative cervical spondylosis is becoming higher and higher, and it has brought great suffering to people. The clinical efficacy of needle-knife therapy in treating the degenerative cervical spondylosis is satisfactory. Needle-knife therapy is an emerging treatmenti but it shows a significant effect in treating the degenerative cervical spondylosis. We will investigate the mechanism of Needle-Knife therapy in treating degenerative cervical spondylosis from spinal biomechanics and soft tissue injury.
