Abstract
Objectives : The objective of this case report was to investigate the effect of electroacupuncture for the management of shoulder pain caused by stroke. Methods : Electroacupuncture at $LI_{15}$ and $TE_{14}$ was performed to five patients who complained of shoulder pain after stroke. We have evaluated the efficacy of treatments by measuring the changes of pain rating score (PRS) and range of motion (ROM) of shoulder joint once a week. Results : PRS was significantly decreased after treatment ($p$<0.05). ROM of shoulder was also decreased but there was not statistical significance. Conclusions : These results suggest that electroacupuncture at $LI_{15}$ and $TE_{14}$ will be beneficial for the treatment of shoulder pain caused by stroke.
