Abstract：Objective To compare the effect of acupotomy in the treatment of cervical vertigo with simultaneous release of posterior occipital triangle and levator scapular muscle and the single release of posterior occipital triangle. Methods From May 2015 to December 2016, 42 patients with cervical vertigo treated in Department of Tuina, the People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region were selected and divided into two groups according to the random number table method. In the treatment group, both posterior occipital triangle and levator scapular were loosened by acupotomy at the same time. In the control group, single posterior occipital triangle was loosened by acupotomy, both groups were treated for 5 times, with each treatment interval of 2 days. Before and after treatment, the cervical vertigo symptoms and function evaluation scale of two groups were compared, and the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated. Results After treatment, the scores of cervical vertigo symptoms and function evaluation scale of treatment group and control group [(24.29±3.57), (21.14±2.95) points] were significantly higher than those before treatment [(16.90±4.30), (16.76±3.73) points], and the scores of cervical vertigo symptoms and function evaluation scale of treatment group were significantly higher than those of control group, the differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05). The curative effect of the two groups was evaluated, there were 15 cases of cure, 5 cases of effective, 1 case of invalid in the treatment group and 6 cases of cure, 13 cases of effective, 2 cases of invalid in the control group, the difference was statistically significant (Z = 2.62, P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion The effect of acupotomy in the treatment of cervical vertigo with simultaneous release of posterior occipital triangle and levator scapular muscle is better.
