I would start by reading our acupuncture for stroke treatment page which near the bottom has points for specific areas. As Kate Kang points out the point sets baxie and bafeng can be quite useful. Also while not directly applicable the general process we use for conditions like MS, see tam healing for MS, can be useful particularly the window of the sky points.
