Free Community Acupuncture Clinic for Military Servicemembers & Families

The Family Acupuncture Center in Silver Spring is partnering with The Military Stress

Recovery Project (MSRP) to provide free acupuncture treatment to retired and active duty military servicemembers and their families.

Military Stress Recovery Project began in 2006 with a pilot clinic in Albuquerque, New Mexico.  Today, 27 clinics operate nationwide treating thousands of military veterans suffering from serious acute traumatic stress – they may be having flashbacks, panic, insomnia, suicidal ideation, or any number of symptoms. At clinics around the country, veterans are experiencing benefits such as a full nights sleep for the first time in years and fewer bad dreams.  They are reporting improved mental clarity, less anxiety and a reduction in stress.



Family Acupuncture Clinic hours will be 9:00 A.M. to 12:00 P.M., the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of every month, beginning February 5, 2014 at 13415 Connecticut Ave., Suite 204, Silver Spring, MD 20906.
To register, patients should contact Kay Madsen 
at 240-393-5420.
