Abstract: Objective To explore the effect of massage at specific acupoints under the principle of "invigorating the spleen and strengthening the kidney" on the motor function,comprehensive rehabilitation effect and cerebral blood flow in children with cerebral palsy.Methods Select 102 children with cerebral palsy treated in our department from July 2020 to February 2022 as the research subjects,and divide them into two groups(51 in each) by random number table method. The control group was given routine massage,and the observation group was additionally given massage at specific acupoints in pediatric massage therapy under the principle of "invigorating the spleen and strengthening the kidney". The clinical comprehensive rehabilitation effect,gross motor function, fine motor function and cerebral blood flow velocity of the two groups were compared.Results After intervention,the total effective rate of the observation group was 94.12%, higher than that of the control group,which was 80.39%(P<0.05);the gross motor function and fine motor function scores of the observation group were higher than those of the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05);the blood flow velocities of the anterior cerebral artery(ACA),middle cerebral artery(MCA),and posterior cerebral artery(PCA)in the two groups were all higher than those before the intervention,and the observation group was higher than the control group,and the vascular pulsatility index was lower than before intervention,and it was lower in the observation group than the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion On the basis of traditional massage techniques,strengthening the specific acupoint massage mainly focusing on "invigorating the spleen and strengthening the kidney" has the advantages of improving the level of cerebral blood perfusion,which can effectively improve the level of motor development,and help children with cerebral palsy to recover comprehensively with good effect.
