Acupuncture
for PTSD
Acupuncture
has been shown in several studies to be effective in treating the symptoms of
PTSD. Auricular acupuncture has been especially popular. As a proponent of
integrating both eastern and western medicine in treating physical and/or
mental illness, I would like to see a combined approach whenever possible to
the treatment of this heartbreaking illness; one that can fracture families as
well as individual lives. If a veteran or someone else suffering from PTSD
could be treated by an integrated team of therapists, this could do much to
help him or her safely put their traumatic experiences behind them in the past,
where they belong. This important illness seems like an ideal one for such a
team approach.
