Treatment strategies will be discussed and demonstrated using a multimodal approach. Some strategies include electro-acupuncture, auricular acupuncture, scalp acupuncture, and a few neurological rehabilitation techniques to enhance acupuncture treatments.
Traditional Chinese medicine theory and treatment will be discussed as it relates to stroke patients with recommendations for specific acupuncture points. This class was designed to build the bridge between TCM and Western medicine.
