Did You Know?
Acupuncture is one of the fastest growing forms of healthcare
for the VA. Acupuncture is able to successfully address and treat severe and debilitating chronic pain due to combat related and non combat related injuries. Acupuncture can be easily complimented
and integrated with any current medical regiment and/or
treatment plan.
Physical pains are often exasperated by emotional pains and vice-versa. Acupuncture treatments will address
your body and mind because there is a direct correlation and/or relationship between the two. When one is
addressed the other responds. If you are feeling stressed your body will have an elevated level of pain. If you are
feeling pain your mind will be more stressed.
Most veterans who receive acupuncture state
when their pain levels reduce
so does their stress and anxiety.
Veterans suffering from PTSD report when acupuncture is used to address
their pain, a positive and common result is a sense of feeling
peaceful and calm.
