Acupuncture for Stroke Support
![]() |
Strokes can devastate the patients who might rarely be sick otherwise, and may be unaware of symptoms.
Survivors often are faced with disabilities of motions, speech, mental acuity, learning and vision, along with increased risk of additional strokes.
Acupuncture and Chinese herbs can supplement therapeutic treatment to help with recovery and the restoration of quality of life.
Faster and more complete recovery and regeneration of the brain
and nervous system may reduce the degree and longevity of disability and the recurrence of strokes.
Acupuncturists, hebalists and doctors trained in traditional Chinese medicine perform acupuncture to the area above the affected side of the patient's brain and, perhaps, to the paralyzed side of the body.
The physician trained in Chinese medicine will collaborate with physical therapists and the patient's team of western medicine specialists as to how best to supplement traditional western care with acupuncture, herbs and Chinese medicine. Electro-acupuncture is also a common and effective means of treatment in stroke rehabilitation.
Acupuncture works to enhance Qi and blood circulation in the brain and on the affected side of the body. It helps to rebuild the brain's ability to communicate with the body. Strokes also debilitate patients emotionally in addition to the physical trauma. Acupuncture can help calm the patient and help the patient with depression.
