Enhancing patient care with Prof. Dr TJ Wang’s Comprehensive Scalp Acupuncture Course
The use of Scalp acupuncture has gained attention in stroke rehabilitation for its potential benefits. Here's how it may help:
Stimulating Brain Activity: Scalp acupuncture targets areas of the brain, promoting neural activity and neuroplasticity, where the brain forms new connections to compensate for lost functions.
Improving Motor Function: By stimulating brain areas linked to motor control, it may help regain muscle strength, coordination, and movement in stroke-affected limbs.
Enhancing Circulation: It may boost blood flow to the brain, supporting healing and reducing risks like ischemia.
Reducing Spasticity and Pain: Acupuncture can ease muscle spasticity and pain, a common issue after a stroke, by influencing the central nervous system, helping relax
tense muscles and reduce stroke-related discomfort.
Supporting Speech and Cognition: Certain scalp acupuncture points may stimulate brain regions responsible for speech and cognition, aiding recovery of these functions in stroke survivors.
Boosting Emotional Well-Being: Scalp acupuncture can help reduce anxiety, depression, and stress, supporting overall mental health during recovery.
While research is still ongoing, many stroke patients report improvements in mobility, cognition, and quality of life when combined with conventional rehabilitation therapies.
