Clinical Research Progress on Acupuncture Treatment for Spastic Paralysis after Stroke

Stroke, also known as stroke, is a neurological disease with a high disability rate. Post stroke spasms are one of the common complications in stroke rehabilitation patients, often manifested clinically as limb movement disorders, sensory system disorders, increased muscle tone, muscle atrophy, and decreased muscle strength. Therefore, early detection and treatment have become the primary principle for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of spastic paralysis after stroke. As early as over two thousand years ago, acupuncture therapy had a relatively wide range of applications, and different acupuncture sites, methods, and timing can all have an impact on the therapeutic effect of acupuncture. This article reviews the literature on acupuncture treatment for spastic paralysis after stroke in recent years, in order to explore patterns, expand ideas, and improve the clinical efficacy of acupuncture treatment for this disease.
