"Stroke". A person who was originally able to move freely but may suddenly become unconscious or even lose his life due to a stroke; if he wakes up, he may become paralyzed and lose the ability to take care of himself; some minor strokes may also cause the patient's mouth and eyes to be crooked, difficult to speech, and his movements no longer flexible, greatly reducing his quality of life.
Although strokes come suddenly, there are actually precursors. If there are the following signs, it is better to seek medical consultation immediately:
Six signs of stroke;
* Weakness or numbness of the face, arms or legs, especially on one side of the body, which lasts for a few seconds or minutes and then stops. And it recurs repeatedly.
* Difficulty of understanding & speaking
* Unclear vision in one or both eyes, such as blurred vision or double vision
* Difficulty of walking, coordination disorder or stumbling
* Dizziness or loss of balance
* Severe headaches caused by unknown reasons
In 2002, the World Health Organization (WHO) had included Chinese medicine acupuncture therapy as an evidence-based and effective method for stroke treatment. Studies have shown that acupuncture treatment can increase brain blood flow and blood sugar supply, protect central neurons, and reduce brain neuron apoptosis.
Over the years, we have heard that many stroke cases have improved their condition under Chinese medicine treatment.
In Chinese medicine treatment of stroke, doctors will prescribe different prescriptions according to the different syndromes, severity, and duration of the patient's illness.
In addition to Chinese medicine, acupuncture treatment is also required for the treatment of stroke. According to the patient's constitution and condition, it can also be combined with massage, physical therapy and other comprehensive treatments. Acupuncture treatment & Chinese medicine will be given according to the conditions of patient. Besides, Acupuncture points is treated according to different affected parts of the patient's body.
The sequelae of stroke can be serious or minor. In severe cases, it can lead to hemiplegia or even death. Therefore, it must be started as early as possible using Chinese medicine or acupuncture treatment for stroke. In addition, it should be noted that after a stroke, if the limbs are not active for more than a week, it is easy to develop muscle atrophy, joint stiffness and limb contracture, which is called disuse syndrome, it will reducing the rehabilitation effect.
“中风”。原本活动自如的一个人，会由于中风而忽然昏迷不醒甚至丧失生命；醒过来的话也有可能半身不遂失去自理能力；一些轻微性中风或也会使患者口眼歪斜、语言不利，活动也不再灵活，大大降低了生活素质。
中医中风类型分为4大类
即中经、中络、中脏和中腑，并指出当中病机：
邪在于络，肌肤不仁（感觉障碍，失却灵活）；邪在于经，即重不胜（运动障碍，力量减弱）；邪入于腑，即不识人（意识障碍，神志不清）；邪入于脏，舌即难言，口吐涎（语言障碍，唾液直流）。
虽说中风来得突然，其实是有先兆的。若有以下迹象，最好马上送医检查：
中风的六个迹象
* 脸部、手臂或腿部无力或麻木，特别是出现在身体一侧，维持数秒或数分钟即停。并且反复发作。
* 意识混乱或说话、理解言语有困难
* 一只眼或双眼看不清，例如视力模糊或重影
* 走路有困难、协调能力失调或跌跌撞撞
* 头晕或失去平衡
* 不明原因引起的严重头痛
2002年世界卫生组织（WHO）已将中医针灸疗法纳入为中风治疗有循证医学根据及有效的方法。研究表明针刺介入中风针灸治疗能够增加脑部血流以及血糖的供应，保护中枢神经元，减少脑神经元的凋亡。
历年来也听闻不少中风病例在接受中医治疗下而使病情获得改善。
中药治疗中风，医师会根据患者的不同证型、严重程度、病程长短，调配不同药方对症下药。
除了中药之外，治疗中风也需要针灸治疗，因应患者的体质和情况，亦可配合推拿、理疗等全方位治疗。中医在针灸治疗中风方面，都是因人而治，同样是中风病人，但会根据他们因中风所影响的部位，来决定不同的穴位针灸医治中风。
中风的后遗症可大可小，严重时可导致半身瘫痪或甚至死亡。因此，不论是中药或是针灸治疗中风，均须及早开始。
另外需留意中风发作后，肢体不活动一星期以上便很容易产生肌肉萎缩、关节僵硬和肢体挛缩等所谓失用症候群，大大减低复健效果。
