Spinal Stroke

I have a patient who had a spinal stroke at C3-4. He has numbness and tingling through his left arm and leg, weakness in left glutes. I have done upper and lower perfusion treatment on him twice a week for the last 3 mos. He has had some improvement. Should I also be doing any local channel points, scalp points? Anything else other than perfusion?

Anthony's 51 patient day

Anthony chronicled his 51-patient day.

No matter how many patients you want to see, how many days a week you want to work, whatever your goals are...EXSTORE™ gives you the ability to see more patients in less time while getting even better results.

Systemic steroids helped the pain but not the drop foot

Has 6 lumbar vertebrae

Imaging:

July 2026: L-spine MRI - moderate/severe L4/L5 disc injury with severe neural stenosis

L6 fracture when 15 years old from diving injury (healed)

Foot drop:

Aug 2025: horseback riding trip (7 days long) no falls, just lots of riding; when travelling back home after her riding days, she notices her R foot stopped dorsiflexing - took 8 weeks to resolve

June 2026: foot drop came back when doing one sided lifting exercises

Neuro-surgeon said if not in severe pain, neurological recovery post surgery is 50/50 so don't risk surgery if not needed

What are your thoughts about treatment? With the severity of her disc issue, is electro-acupuncture going to help at all?

I see her sporadically so I haven’t been able to treat her appropriately. Stimulating the fibular nerve is incredibly uncomfortable on her, but we managed to do it the ...
