I’m really excited to be training in the new technique of ‘battlefield acupuncture’ this weekend. The technique is being widely used in many divisions within the US military and is seen as a therapeutic technique for pain and post traumatic stress. It involves using 5 tiny acupuncture needles in each ear so is easy to carry out.
Although I don’t treat many military personnel, I’m hoping that the technique may offer some patients an easy and comfortable treatment to combat stress and pain.
