Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of cervical and lumbar Jiaji point acupunctur e combined with warm needling on musclar hypertonia after stroke.M ethods Totally 192 cases of musclar hypertonia after stroke were randomized into treatment group and control group with 96 in each.Both groups were given body needling.T he treatment group was added cervical and lumbar Jiaji point acupuncture combined with warm needli ng.Both groups were treated once daily.One treatment course lasted for 14 days.After two treatment courses

the therapeutic effect was observed with Modified Ashworth Scale（MAS）

Fugl-Meyer Motor Scale（FM）

Barthel Index（BI） and Tran s cranial Doppler（TCD）.Results There were significant d ifferences in MAS

FM and BI between groups（P<0.05）.There were significant differences in end-dia stolic velocity（EDV） of left vertebral artery（LVA） and right vertebral artery（RVA）

peak-systolic velocity（PSV） of right basilar artery（RBA） and pulsatility ind e x（PI） of LVA and RVA between groups（P<0.05）.Conclusion Cervical and lumbar Jiaji point acupuncture combined with warm needling for musclar hypertonia after stroke is effective in relieving musclar spasm of affected limbs

improving blood supply of vertebral-basilar artery

reducing disability rate after stroke and improving quality of life.
