Summary

Acupuncture is widely used as a routine treatment for lumbar muscle strain. The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of the intensive multi-acupuncture method. This trial will include 108 patients with lumbar muscle strain injury from two outpatient clinics. All participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the intensive multi-acupuncture method group and the normal needling group. Outcomes will be assessed before the intervention, after one treatment, after five treatments, and at follow-up 2 weeks after the end of treatment. The primary outcome indicator will be the clinical efficacy evaluation criteria, and the secondary outcome indicators will be the pain visual analog scale (VAS) score, the Japanese Orthopaedic Association Assessment Treatment Score (JOA) score, the lumbar joint mobility measurement scale, and the Modified Ashworth Grading Scale. This study will provide evidence as to whether the intensive multi-acupuncture method is safe and effective.
