Methods:Ninety patients who enrolled into our hospital from February 2014 to December 2014 and with sciatica caused by LIDP were selected and divided into two groups according to the randomnumber table, each group had 45 cases. The treatment group was treated by Electroacupuncture combined with massage, while the control group was treated with massage only.

Results: 1) There was no significant difference in SF-MPQ scores before treatment between the two groups; while the SF-MPQ scores significantly decreased after three and four weeks treatment in Electroacupuncture combined with massage group; 2)The SF-36 was compared between the two groups after treatment, and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05), and also patients in the electroacupuncture combined with massage group are better improved in the quality of life of 8 aspects of sciatica with dimensions. Conclusion:Electroacupuncture combined with massage and solely massage can both relieve pain and improve patient’s quality of life.
