I had blood clots on the right side of my brain that caused a stroke. It affected the left side of my body and made it difficult for me to move. I'm very lucky and thankful to have been treated by Dr. Ming Chen and Dr. Luxia Yang. They used Jiao-shi scalp acupuncture to stimulate the right side of my head and activate neural plasticity. Additionally, they gave me Chinese medication to help treat and enhance my total health. They advise me to change my diet by cutting down carbs and sugar to lose weight. Finally, they used the process of tongue diagnosis to remotely evaluate my daily recovery. Because of them, now I am close to full recovery in only 6 months. The only other medication I have been taking are for high blood pressure control and cholesterol control. Walking thousands of steps a day has also helped. If you or your family or friends have sequelae of stroke or other neurological diseases, Dr Chen & Dr Yang can help you. I highly recommend them.
