Cervical source scapulohumeral periarthritis is a special type of scapulohumeral periarthritis caused by cervical spondylosis. Its clinical manifestations are limited shoulder and neck activities, pain and dysfunction. This article reviews the research progress of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of cervical source scapulohumeral periarthritis. The core of traditional Chinese medicine in treating cervical source scapulohumeral periarthritis lies in syndrome differentiation and treatment, that is, formulating personalized treatment plans according to the specific condition and physical characteristics of patients. Through the comprehensive application of various therapies such as acupuncture, massage, and cupping, traditional Chinese medicine can not only effectively relieve symptoms such as shoulder pain and stiffness, but also regulate the patient’s body functions as a whole, improve the body’s immunity, and promote disease rehabilitation. Among them, acupuncture therapy, as one of the characteristic therapies of traditional Chinese medicine, can dredge meridians and regulate qi and blood by stimulating specific acupoints, thereby relieving the tension and spasm of shoulder muscles. Massage therapy promotes local blood circulation and accelerates inflammation absorption and relieves shoulder pain through manual massage and kneading. Cupping therapy promotes local metabolism and accelerates waste excretion through generating negative pressure, which helps inflammation subside and tissue repair. In addition to the above therapies, the importance of comprehensive treatment of traditional Chinese medicine in all aspects is also emphasized. Combining various methods such as acupuncture, massage, and cupping can achieve remarkable curative effects.
