The control group was intervened by conventional medication, while based on which the treatment group was additionally given yin-yang acupuncture in association with respiratory reducing-reinforcing needling manipulations. The kinematic time parameters were evaluated before intervention and after 28-day treatment. Results After intervention, the stance phase of the affected side and the healthy side, ambulation cycle, swinging phase of the affected side and the healthy side, and the stance phase of both limbs in the treatment group were significantly different from that in the control group(P<0.05).
