They told me that they didn't feel anything.<BR/><BR/>This move on Linda's part is so like her - caring and compassionate.

I often refer to acupuncture as the method is a great supplement to psychotherapy and also stands on its own as a healing modality.<BR/><BR/>Veterans with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder can benefit from acupuncture because it’s highly effective calming the central nervous system, which has been mobilized and remains on hyper-drive due to combat and other service-related stresses and fears. It is also helpful for more generalized stresses, supporting a person’s ability to function more effectively in daily life. This may mean less tension at work and at home, and less arguments with spouse and family.<BR/><BR/>Acupuncture is also very helpful in detoxifying from addictive use of medications, cigarettes, alcohol and illegal drugs. The needling – which really does not hurt – eases the withdrawal process and helps the body to release toxins while also aiding in relaxation.<BR/><BR/>Finally, it also is often effective in healing chronic pain, including back pain and headaches.<BR/><BR/>I hope that veterans of any age, whether having served in peace or war, will take advantage of this generous offer by these health professionals.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-74043731227890697242009-02-13T19:48:00.000-06:002009-02-13T19:48:00.000-06:00It is no surprise that Linda would donate her time...It is no surprise that Linda would donate her time and skills to help the veterans.
