Objectives
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of Chuna manual therapy (CMT) in the treatment of simple obesity.
Methods
We used seven databases to perform a literature search using the keywords “Chuna OR Tuina” AND “Obesity.” We selected randomized clinical trials in which Chuna was used as the main method for treating simple obesity. The risk of bias was assessed by three independent researchers using the Cochrane risk of bias.
Results
A total of 14 RCTs were selected and analyzed. The results of the meta-analysis showed a significantly higher efficacy rate in the patient group treated with CMT as the main treatment than that in the control group.
Conclusions
The results of this systematic review suggest that CMT is effective in the treatment of simple obesity. However, given the limitations such as the small number of studies and the high risk of bias in the studies, additional research is needed to lend further support to this claim.
