By Karina Jacobsen
In recent years many stroke patients have begun to turn to
ancient Chinese medicines and cures to help them recover from
their stroke. They use these along with modern medications and
treatments as well. Alternative medicine does seem to have some
great effects on stroke patients and has helped them to fight
fatigue and also has helped to ease the tension in their muscles
as well.
Many people who have suffered from a stroke have been left with
permanent problems that keep them from taking part in activities
that used to be normal for them. This can include activities
such as speaking, being able to walk, seeing, reasoning,
remembering, and understanding concepts. There are many
treatments that can help stroke patients and some of these
treatments actually use a mirror to get visual clues so that
patient can receive help.

treat stoke patients is acupuncture. uses a special
machine to stimulate needles that have been turned into specific
places in the body. While many doctors in the past have
disagreed on the effectiveness of acupuncture, more and more
studies are showing that does have some great
benefits. Today is more widely accepted in the
medical field and many doctors are seeing the great benefits it

Acupuncture Healing Arts new features
I am happy to announce that there have been some very positive changes to the Acupuncture Healing Arts website.
We have added a section of patient testimonials. Over 90 patients have been kind enough to write testimonials?making this section an extensive resource for people interested in how others have responded to acupuncture. To make the testimonials easier to search, they have been organized by 'condition treated'. Select the condition you are looking for in the table and you will be shown a page of testimonials related to your choice. I feel this testimonials page is unique, as I haven't seen anything like it on other websites.
Another new feature is called 'The ABC's of Acupuncture' ? an easy-to-understand explanation, with pictures, of what acupuncture is, how it works, and what to expect during your treatment.
Take a look at 'The ABC's of Acupuncture'. It could help anyone who is thinking about acupuncture but who is still incertain about trying it.
I am also happy to announce that most of the articles on the site have been enhanced with photos and other visuals to give you a better understanding of acupuncture and chinese medicine.
I hope you enjoy these new features as much as my webmaster and I enjoyed creating them. You may email me your comments or questions using my email contact form, or call the clinic at (916) 486-9600 to make an appointment.
Yours in health,

to be very effective. has helped
to improve their speaking and other motor skills, as well as the
way the blood circulates through the body. When a stroke occurs,
it is because of lack of blood flow to a certain part of the
brain, and this causes tissue damage in the brain, which is
permanent. Many stroke patients lose many of the abilities they
used to have and this becomes very frustrating to them.
Rehabilitation is a very important part of stroke recovery, and
using as a part of this rehabilitation can provide
wonderful benefits to stroke patients.
Although is relatively new to many peoples’
thinking, it has been around for hundreds of years, originating
with the Chinese. Modern medicine has found that acupuncture
does have many benefits if it is done correctly. If you are a
stroke patient and you decide to turn to for help,
be sure that you have it done by someone that is licensed to do
it. You do not want to go to just anyone, but want to find
someone who has a great reputation, so they can help you and not
hurt you.
