The invention relates to an intelligent domestic health-care instrument based on external counterpulsation control, and a control method thereof. The health-care instrument comprises an equipment body and an external counterpulsation control system arranged in the equipment body; the equipment body comprises a display panel, an external equipment connector, an internal air pump, an air pump connector, a leg sequential air-bag assembly, an air inlet pipe and an electromagnetic valve; the external counterpulsation control system comprises an electrocardiosignal acquisition module, a finger pulse signal acquisition module, a signal processing module, a pressure signal acquisition module, and an optimal control module. The intelligent domestic health-care instrument, provided by the invention, is small in size and light in weight, does not need a large air compressor or an air storage tank domestically used, also can avoid potential safety hazards brought by high-pressure devices, and can realize one-button start; the health-care instrument can enable more people to benefit from the technology more conveniently, and popularize the external counterpulsation theory to the disease prevention and home health-care field.
