Interventions
DEVICE

Electroacupuncture Therapy

Participants in the experimental group will receive daily electroacupuncture therapy over a standardized 14-day therapeutic course. Comprehensive functional and neurological assessments will be conducted at pre-intervention (baseline) and post-intervention timepoints. Acupoint selection will target anatomical domains spanning the cranial, upper limb, and lower limb regions.

DEVICE

Sham electroacupuncture intervention

Participants in the control group will receive daily sham electroacupuncture therapy over a standardized 14-day therapeutic course. Comprehensive functional and neurological assessments will be conducted at pre-intervention (baseline) and post-intervention timepoints. Sham electroacupuncture procedures will target non-acupoint locations outside recognized cranial, upper limb, and lower limb anatomical domains.
