Objective To investigate the effect of the three-step auricular acupoint therapy in the treatment of chronic insomnia. Methods In this study, 30 patients with chronic insomnia were selected as the research objects. Based on the pre-treatment evaluation and health education, a three-step auricular acupoint therapy was carried out, in which auricular acupoint sticking and pressing therapy was performed followed by auricular acupoint massage and auricular acupoint scraping therapy. The patient sleep quality was evaluated by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI), and effect of three-step auricular acupoint therapy was evaluated. Results The total score of PSQI and scores of PSQI indicators including sleep quality, time to fall asleep, sleep time, sleep efficiency, sleep disturbance, daytime dysfunction were lower than those before treatment (P<0. 05). The total effective rate of treatment was 90. 00%(27/30). Conclusion The three-step auricular acupoint therapy is safe and effective in the treatment of chronic insomnia, and it is worthy of clinical application.
