Acupotomy is a modern technique in Chinese medicine that integrates aspects of acupuncture and surgical therapy.

This method is particularly effective for treating conditions such as cervical osteochondrosis, lumbar disc herniation, and knee arthritis. The action mechanism of acupotomy involves restoring the balance of local tissues within the body, reducing scarring, enhancing drainage and circulation, and decreasing tension and pressure in tissues. These actions help to lessen swelling, alleviate pain, and manage other symptoms. Acupotomy is especially beneficial for treating chronic pain associated with soft tissue adhesions, scarring, osteoarthritis, tenosynovitis, and calcification of muscles and ligaments. Additionally, it can aid in the recovery from pathological damage caused by surgical procedures or injuries.
