Through retrieval of all medical journals of CNKI and VIP from Jan. 1996 to Oct. 2012, ninety-nine articles were selected and analyzed. The result shows that reliable effect can be found in pain relieving, especially in pain of muscles and soft tissues. In mechanism research, action mechanism of Fu's subcutaneous needling (FSN) on pain relieving is expounded through theory of traditional medicine and modern medicine. Although the effect of FSN on pain relieving has been confirmed by numerous clinical trials, it is still lack of explanation on mechanism revealing. The further studies should focus on mechanism expounding, improving research methods and selecting more objective and reasonable evaluation system. Therefore, the effectiveness and scientificalness of FSN can be further enhanced.

Introduction: Fu's subcutaneous needling (FSN) is a new type of acupuncture that uses subcutaneous tissue to oscillate from side to side to improve muscle pathology status and can be effective in treating Knee osteoarthritis. Nonetheless, whether the clinical effect is similar to that of most commonly used drugs is unclear. Thus, this study aims to determine the pain-relieving effect and improvement in the joint function of the FSN therapy by comparing it with that of a positive control drug (celecoxib).
