| 摘 要： | Objective： To observe the therapeutic efficacy of combining foot bath and massage with auricular point sticking for community senile insomnia. Methods： A total of 210 cases treated in our community health center were randomized into an observation group and a control group by their visit sequence numbers, 105 cases in each group. Cases in the observation group were treated with foot bath and massage plus auricular point sticking, whereas cases in the control group were treated with auricular point sticking alone. After four courses of treatment, the therapeutic efficacies were evaluated. In addition, the sleep quality was also assessed using the Pittsburgh sleep quality index（PSQI）. Results： The total effective rate in the observation group was 95.2%, versus 68.6% in the control group, showing a statistical significance（P〈0.05）. Conclusion： Combining foot bath and massage with auricular point sticking could obtain better effect for community senile insomnia than auricular point sticking alone.
