Secondary Outcomes (3)

the Barthel Index of ADL
1 day before treatment and at the end of 3 weeks of treatment
Active Range of Motion
1 day before treatment and at the end of 3 weeks of treatment
Root Mean Square
1 day before treatment and at the end of 3 weeks of treatment

Other Outcomes (1)

Clinical efficacy evaluation
the end of 3 weeks of treatment

Study Arms (2)

manual acupuncture group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

In the manual acupuncture group, participants will be needled in the scalp motor area on the lesion side and left in place for 30 minutes after obtaining qi. During needle retention, the needles will be intermittently twisted for 2min twice, with a frequency of about 200 r/min. Participants will receive treatment once daily, with six consecutive days of treatment followed by one day of rest each week, for three weeks.

Other: manual acupuncture

electroacupuncture group

EXPERIMENTAL

The same acupoint was selected as the manual acupuncture group in the electroacupuncture group. After obtaining qi, electroacupuncture stimulation will be applied using a continuous wave at a frequency of 2 Hz. The stimulation intensity will be adjusted based on the patient's tolerance, and each treatment will be lasted for 30 minutes. Participants will receive treatment once daily, with six consecutive days of treatment followed by one day of rest each week, for three weeks.
