No..I would not recommend this.
Strokes are of 3 kinds:
1) Ischemic Strokes ..caused by obstruction of blood supply within a vessel that supplies blood to the brain.
87% of strokes are of this variety
2)Hemorrhagic Stroke ..which causes bleeding as a result of rupture of a malformed blood vessel or an aneurysm.
3)Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) which is a mini stroke..caused by a temporary obstruction either due to a blood clot or any infected emboli.
The very fact that the writer of this method was not aware of the different types of strokes and took it for granted that strokes are only caused by bleeding blood vessels....already casts a doubt on its authenticity.
Further more why make patient bleed and introduce infections in that process.
