Acupressure Therapy in a Patient with Primary Headache Comorbid Insomnia: A Nursing Experience
This article summarizes the nursing experience of treating a patient with primary headache and insomnia using finger acupoint therapy. Based on the patient's symptom characteristics, targeted finger acupoint intervention was implemented, and the clinical efficacy of this therapy on primary headache was systematically observed. The treatment results showed that this therapy significantly reduced the patient's pain level, simultaneously improved anxiety, and restored sleep rhythm, ultimately achieving a comprehensive improvement in quality of life.
