Abstract:This paper reviews the literatures on gluteus minimus myofascial pain syndrome, and finds the rule that most of the trigger points of gluteus minimus are located in the middle of muscle belly, on basis of which, the anterior and posterior treatment approaches of acupotomy are designed, and all the trigger points are located accurately under relaxing posture technique, then the target treatment of acupotomy is taken. The factors influencing acupotomy efficacy, such as anatomy of gluteus minimus, complete target therapy of trigger points, recovery of trigger points, nutritional status and other factors, are analyzed, aimed at putting forward the importance of guiding acupotomy in the treatment of gluteus minimus myofascial pain by anatomical rules, so as to provide reference for acupotomy in the treatment of gluteus minimus myofascial pain in clinic.
