The purpose of this study was to explore the feasibility of combining acupuncture and moxibustion treatment in a short-term intensive exercise program for care prevention. The subjects were residents of the town of Yanaizu, Fukushima Prefecture, aged 65 years or older, who were not certified for long-term care. This study will examine the safety and feasibility of acupuncture and moxibustion treatment in combination with exercise therapy for long-term care prevention, and will also explore the possibility of introducing this treatment into future long-term care projects.
Safety,Efficacy
Evaluate the frequency of adverse events with respect to safety in the practice of acupuncture and moxibustion.
Acupuncture treatments will be performed once a week for a total of 14 weeks, so the evaluation will be conducted in conjunction with each acupuncture treatment.
1. Assess the subject's pain using a visual analogue scale.
2. Quality of Life (QOL) assessment: QOL is assessed using the SF-8 (MOS 8-Item Short-Form Health Survey), with scores calculated from the SF-8.
Secondary outcomes will be assessed at baseline (week 1) and at 16 weeks.
