Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Clinic
Acupuncture is quickly becoming recognized as an effective tool in moderating the effects of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. The treatments allow an individual to re-experience a state of deep relaxation. Repeated treatments help an individual learn how to calm themselves in stressful situations. In addition, acupuncture helps with symptoms that make an individual more susceptible to anxiety such as stress, obsessive thinking, pain and fatigue.
