摘要 [Objectives] To intervene in cervical spondylosis of arterialtype (CSA) using moxibustion therapy, and analyze its clinical efficacy. [Methods] 36 patients with CSA admitted to the Xingfu Yiyang Nursing Home from January to July 2025 were selected as the research subjects. Moxibustion treatment was applied, and a retrospective analysis of the clinical efficacy was conducted on the patients. [Results] Among the 36 patients with CSA treated with moxibustion, 28 cases showed significant improvement in symptoms, accounting for 77.78%; 6 cases showed no significant improvement in symptoms, accounting for 22.22%; no ineffective cases were observed, and the total treatment effectiveness rate was 100%. Compared with those before treatment, both groups showed an increase in ESCV scores, a decrease in VAS scores, an increase in Vs and Vm, and a decrease in PI and RI after treatment (P<0.05). The changes were more significant in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). [Conclusions] Moxibustion therapy has significant therapeutic effects on CSA. Additionally, moxibustion therapy is easy to operate, has no side effects, and is highly safe, making it worthy of clinical promotion and application.
