Abstract: Objective To explore and analyze the effects of massage combined with kidney tonifying and blood stasis removing acupuncture on lumbar pain and surface electromyography in patients with chronic lumbar muscle strain in the recovery period．Methods From September 2019 to April 2022, 72 cases of patients in the recovery period of chronic lumbar muscle strain treated in our hospital were selected as the research objects, and were divided into the combined group and the control group with 36 cases in each group by the random 1∶1 number table method．The control group were given massage therapy, and the combination group were given kidney tonifying and stasis removing acupuncture additionally．Results After treatment, the total effective rates of combined group and control group were 97.2% and 75%, respectively, and the combined group was significantly higher than the control group（P<0.05）．Before treatment, there was no significant difference in the visual analogue pain scale（VAPS）and Oswestry low pain & disability questionnaire（OPDG）scores between the two groups, but after treatment, the scores of the two groups were significantly decreased, and the combined group was significantly lower than the control group（P<0.05）．The lumbar flexion intensity after treatment was significantly higher in both groups than before treatment（P<0.05）, and higher in combination group（P<0.05）．The amplitude and latency of surface electromyogram nerve roots after treatment were significantly lower in both groups than before treatment（P<0.05）, and even lower in combination group（P<0.05）．The serum 5-HT content in combination group and control group after treatment was significantly higher than that before treatment（P<0.05）, and that in combination group was higher（P<0.05）．Conclusions The application of massage combined with kidney tonifying and blood stasis removing acupuncture in patients recovering from chronic lumbar muscle strain has good safety, which can improve the lumbar function of patients, relieve the pain of patients, improve the overall therapeutic effect, improve the surface electromyography of patients and promote the release of serum 5-HT．
