Acus Foundation

ted 200,000-300,000 suffer from combat-related stress conditions and impaired cognition. These debilitating conditions commonly do not respond adequately to pharmaceutical and other neurologic and psychiatric interventions. Research has shown acupuncture to be a highly successful treatment for acute and chronic pain, headache, sleep disorders, as well as stress and anxiety symptoms, including PTS. Medical acupuncture, as primary treatment or complement to conventional therapy, has been enthusiastically embraced by military patients, veterans, and military physicians.
