Philadelphia Area Military and Veterans Acupuncture Project

** Weekly treatments for military, veterans, and family are now available on Thursday evenings! Seatings are at 6pm and 7pm, and are provided at The Won Institute . Treatments are from $5 to $10.**

For some, war never ends. Military personnel and veterans of all wars deserve a warm welcome home and a chance to heal.

We provide free weekly acupuncture treatments to help them resolve their post-traumatic stress symptoms.

We are associated with Acupuncturists Without Borders.

On Thursday nights, starting March 11, 2010, you can obtain weekly acupuncture treatments at The Won Institute of Graduate Studies in Glenside, PA. Seatings are at 6pm and 7pm. Come a little early for best seating. Treatments cost between $5 and $10.

Or, you can contact the following practices for free or specially priced sessions:

• Roxborough Community Acupuncture on Lyceum in Roxborough.
• The Center for Acupuncture and Traditional Medicine on Cynwyd Road in Bala Cynwyd.
• Empirical Point Philadelphia Acupuncture serving the Philadelphia community in Center City and Mt. Airy, providing special rates for veterans and their families.

What We Do

We are a group of acupuncturists and volunteers that give of our time to help current military personnel and returning veterans, of any war.

Post-traumatic stress disorder has been shown to be relieved through weekly ear acupuncture treatments.

At PAVAP, you will receive free or specially priced treatments. Five needles will be placed in each ear. Sit for a while. You'll be amazed at the results.

Looking for groups

We are looking to treat currently enlisted military personnel or veterans in a group setting. Please contact us if you have a group that would benefit from free acupuncture.
