Abstract:
To investigate the curative effect of needling bilateral points on apoplectic paralysis and preliminarily study the mechanism of its action, a treatment group of 41 patients was treated by needling bilateral points and a control group of 40 patients, by needling points on the affected side. The effect on apoplectic paralysis after 3 courses of treatment was significantly better in the treatment group than in the control group. Needling bilateral points can improve the curative effect.
