Methods： 92 cases were divided randomly into the treatment group （treated by acupuncture-moxibustion and Chinese Tuina） and the control group （treated,by acupuncture-moxibustion）. Results： The therapeutic effect of the treatment group was obviously Superior to that of the control group （the x^2 test showed P〈0.01）. Conclusions： The comprehensive therapy of acupuncture-moxibustion and Chinese Tuina can give marked therapeutic effects for,treatment of insomnia due to deficiency of both the heart and spleen.展开更多
