Stroke And Peripheral Treatment

Research has shown that a combination of Chinese and Western medicines, acupuncture, and other treatments can be beneficial in treating both stroke and peripheral neuropathy. These alternative therapies can not only reduce the pain associated with debilitating conditions such as these but also help to reduce long-term damage caused by the illness. Moreover, many studies have found that traditional Chinese medicine can improve mental functions, provide additional strength to nerves and muscles, boost energy levels, and alleviate stress. Furthermore, when combined with acupuncture treatments, it has been reported that healing time can be significantly reduced. Therefore, patients are encouraged to seek out professional advice from qualified medical practitioners who understand how to integrate Eastern approaches with more traditional Western care for the best results.

A stroke is a serious medical condition whereby the brain’s blood supply and oxygen are blocked, resulting in damage to the cells. Peripheral neuropathy, on the other hand, is characterized by a disruption in communication between the brain and body due to nerve damage.

Treating stroke and peripheral neuropathy often requires a multi-faceted approach, which may include physical therapy, occupational therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, medications, assistive devices, lifestyle modifications, and alternative options. Physical therapy helps rebuild strength and movement in the affected arm or leg. Occupational therapy can improve fine motor skills and self-care activities. Cognitive-behavioral techniques can help with difficulty processing information due to brain injury from stroke or other nerve disorders. Medications can also be prescribed to manage pain from peripheral neuropathy as well as reduce the risk of stroke by controlling certain risk factors such as high blood pressure or cholesterol levels. Assistive devices may be used for ramps or stairs in order to increase mobility and accessibility in the home. Living with stroke or peripheral neuropathy requires lifestyle modifications such as staying hydrated and adapting to exercise routines tailored to the individual. Alternative options may include acupuncture, massage, meditation, dietary changes, and vitamin supplements – all contributing towards improved overall health and wellness after each treatment session is carefully considered.

Strokes can be caused by many different long-term lifestyle choices. The traditional Chinese medicine view of these choices is that they weaken the kidneys and the spleen. As a result of chronic weaknesses in the body’s energy movements, blood flow through the brain is blocked.

Practitioners treat strokes by removing phlegm, removing blood stasis, tonifying the kidney, and inducing resuscitation. Studies worldwide have shown that acupuncture is the only treatment that directly promotes nerve regeneration. Almost 90% of patients with peripheral neuropathy caused by chemotherapy fully recovered in our office. In addition, patients reported less intense headaches, better sleep, and generally better wellbeing, and they were taught a few techniques to use during their day-to-day lives, such as during the onset of headaches in order to prevent them from getting too severe.
