Objective based on the theory of inducing Yang to Yin, to observe and study the effect of cupping therapy on insomnia patients with heart-kidney disharmony. Methods From August 2018 to October 2020, 154 insomnia patients with cardio-renal incommunication were selected from the TCM internal medicine outpatient department of the Affiliated Hospital of University of Chinese Medicine (one case of shedding, i.e. 153 cases). According to the principle of random allocation, they were divided into three groups, namely balanced cupping treatment group, conventional treatment group and combined treatment group, with 51 cases in each group. The control group was treated with balanced cupping alone, the conventional treatment group was treated with conventional treatment, and the combined treatment group was treated with balanced cupping and conventional treatment. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used in 3 groups before and after the intervention. Results After treatment, the total effective rate and PSQI total score of the three groups were significantly different (P < 0.05). The combined treatment group was significantly better than the conventional treatment group and the balanced cupping treatment group, and the balanced cupping treatment group was better than the conventional treatment group. Conclusion The balanced cupping based on "inducing Yang to Yin" in the treatment of sleep quality of insomnia patients with heart-kidney incompatibility is effective, safe and superior to conventional treatment, and has research value and promotion significance.
