Acupuncture for Post Stroke Rehab in London | Qin’s Clinic

Recovery after a stroke can be physically and emotionally demanding, often affecting mobility, balance, coordination, speech, strength, and overall confidence in daily life. Some people experience weakness on one side of the body, muscle stiffness, fatigue, or difficulty with movement and routine activities. While conventional rehabilitation often focuses on physical therapy, medical management, and functional recovery, Traditional Chinese Medicine aims to support both the symptoms and the underlying imbalances that may be affecting circulation, neurological recovery, and general vitality.

Understanding the Root Cause

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, post stroke symptoms are often linked to Qi and Blood stagnation, internal Wind, and underlying weakness in the body’s organ systems that affects healing and recovery. When the channels are obstructed and normal circulation is impaired, movement, coordination, and neurological function may be affected. TCM treatment focuses on restoring smoother circulation, calming internal Wind, and supporting the body’s natural recovery processes.

Our Personalised Treatment Approach

Our approach combines:

Acupuncture
Targeted acupuncture points are used to stimulate circulation, calm internal Wind, support neural pathway recovery, and improve movement, coordination, and overall function.

Chinese Herbal Medicine
Herbal formulas are prescribed to nourish Qi and Blood, support neurological recovery, strengthen the body, and promote internal balance during rehabilitation.

Rehabilitation & Lifestyle Guidance
Patients receive personalised guidance on movement, recovery habits, daily support strategies, and lifestyle adjustments to enhance rehabilitation outcomes and quality of life.

Evidence & Clinical Studies

Research suggests acupuncture may help support post stroke rehabilitation by improving neurological function, mobility, and overall recovery when used alongside conventional care. Chinese herbal medicine is also used in Traditional Chinese Medicine to support vitality, circulation, and recovery during long term rehabilitation.
