Japanese Acupuncture, Phoenix, AZ

An Iraq war veteran came in for second session. He did not take Oxycodone since my last treatment. His phantom pain due to the drug disappeared from his body but remains in the brain as memory. He showed the real sign of pain on his back from about T-5 down to S-1 (vertebrae) and on his calves. However, his knee pains on both knees are now negligible and I knew if I treated his back, they would improve further. His pulse is slightly better on all positions and the digestion (severe diarrhea) is fast improving with natural Chinese herb formula.

After acupuncture, took out all pains on his back. Pains on his stomach are gone, too but these will come back again with less intensity.

He has not complained about PTSD so far.

Once the damaged liver due to Oxycodone improves, I know the digestion would improve and soon he will be on a course of recovery for the body and mind.

Will report more on his progress after third treatment.
