Abstract:
This article summarizes Professor Lu Yanqing's clinical experience in treating post-stroke upper limb flaccid paralysis using ultrasound-guided neural facilitation acupuncture.Neural facilitation acupuncture is a technique developed by Professor Lu through long-term clinical practice,integrating modern musculoskeletal and neurological anatomy with traditional meridian and acupoint theory.Under ultrasound guidance,this method employs targeted needling techniques at specific sites corresponding to different motor dysfunctions in post-stroke patients.By combining Chinese and western medical principles,it leverages neuroplasticity to reactivate perilesional brain functional reorganization and establish new neural pathways between affected limb receptors and the central nervous system,ultimately restoring motor function in the paralyzed upper limb.
