Dr. Huang Shichang
The treatment of post-stroke sequelae involves managing the underlying primary disease. Secondly, rehabilitation training is essential. Medications have limited effectiveness for patients with post-stroke sequelae. Our main approach focuses on rehabilitation exercises, along with traditional Chinese medicine therapies such as acupuncture, massage, and physical therapy, to improve muscle strength, reduce muscle tone, and enhance the patient's ability to perform daily activities.
