Client: Mr. Jiang

Pre-treatment status: Two years ago, due to dizziness, tinnitus and severe fatigue, he was diagnosed as acoustic neuroma in Hong Kong Hospital, and craniotomy was performed to remove the tumor. After the operation, he had right facial paralysis, deafness, language difficulty, left limb atrophy, weakness and emaciation, numbness, paralysis and inability to stand up, feeling separated by a layer of paper. After nearly four months of recovery, the situation improved slightly and recovered at home. Two years later, I went to Aili Jian Hospital for treatment. After understanding the condition, I judged that the following injuries occurred after the operation: vestibular function injury, ataxia, facial nerve injury, auditory nerve injury, glossopharyngeal nerve injury, and cerebellar injury. The overall situation is as follows: pushed by the family in a wheelchair, the language expression is not clear, the right side of the face is paralyzed, the cheek is bulging and the cheek is leaking, the frown is stretched and the tongue is biased, and the vision is blurred. Chewing and swallowing are slow, and it takes an hour to complete a meal. The right side of the head sweats more than the left side without sweat, left limb strength flexibility sensitivity deviation, feeling numb. Stand up need family support, can not walk.

Treatment process: Ailijian therapy was carried out after admission and various examinations were perfected, and strength training, balance training and language training were guided by rehabilitation therapists. Due to the serious condition of the patient, the chief physician encourages the patient to listen to the arrangement patiently, muster the courage to work hard to recover, and strive to make progress step by step in a good direction and recover as quickly as possible from sitting firmly to standing to balance to walking slowly. Considering that the head meridian should be dredged with Ailijian therapeutic apparatus, the family resolutely cut their hair to facilitate the operation of the therapist. During the training, I practiced straightening my back, kneeling, turning over, lifting my legs, standing up, walking, singing and so on. After one month, the waist strength is enhanced, and the kneeling posture can be balanced. After two months, the balance ability is further improved, the flexibility of both hands is improved, and the accuracy and speed of finger-holding and object-taking are improved. After three months, the language expression ability is improved, can express clearly, the physical strength is better, pedaling for half an hour does not feel tired. The facial muscles recover better, the bulging cheeks and frowns are not too partial, the chewing ability is improved, the eating speed can be completed faster, and the eyesight is improved to see the words in front of them clearly. Before leaving the hospital, you can sit up under the guidance of the rehabilitator and walk slowly, making a very good start for the patient's recovery to normal. Seeing the progress in the past three months, the patients and their families are very grateful for the efforts of all the staff of Ellijian Hospital.
