Abstract
Daozhuo massage therapy for chronic prostatitis is an external treatment method that uses pointing, pressing, pushing, and kneading on specific acupoints to dredge meridians, regulate qi, and activate blood circulation. This therapy has a noticeable clinical therapeutic effect on chronic prostatitis, which is the core syndrome type of blood stasis. This article reviews the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) pathogenesis of chronic prostatitis, the historical overview, clinical application, and operational precautions of Daozhuo massage therapy. It also includes a case study to discuss the significant role, effectiveness, and practical application of Daozhuo massage therapy in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of chronic prostatitis.
