RP Members we need to help more fo our veterans with PTSD, TBI, and MST. Please reach out to us at Sponsor a Vet Life. Contact me personally for more information at: [login to see]
There are so many ways to help that don't include experimental drugs or that cause addictions!
When veterans come back from war, wounds that cannot be seen often return with them. Today, the impact of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) on U.S. veterans is understood more than in the past. Of veterans who have served in the most recent operations, Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom, in locations including Afghanistan and Iraq, between 11 and 20 percent have returned with PTSD, according to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
For many veterans, healing opportunities are available.
One nonprofit providing assistance to war veterans is the National Veterans Wellness and Healing Center in Angel Fire, New Mexico. Tucked into the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, the center is for PTSD-afflicted veterans and their spouses to experience a week of complementary therapies.
The center provides couples free getaways where nontraditional healing methods are offered, including massage, yoga, equine therapy and reiki.

I imagine that some veterans may be relieved of some PTSD symptoms with massage COL Mikel J. Burroughs. Hopefully those who could benefit will be able to be treated.
