Free acupuncture treatments for veterans this week at Acupuncture Together

I know this is a North Cambridge business, not one in Davis Square, but I also know that there are several veterans reading this community, so I thought I should pass this on: http://www.acupuncturetogether.com/.

I've been going here for treatments for the past 3 months or so, and I've been very happy with them--their sliding scale means that initial appointments (in which they take your medical history, etc.) are $35-$55, and subsequent appointments are $20-$40; you decide how much you can afford to pay. In addition, they also have many specials, and one in particular that I've appreciated has been the one for the unemployed; between 10-4 M-F, an appointment is only $10. They also sell various Chinese herbs, both commercially available formulas and combinations of herbs prescribed for a specific individual.

(I found about about this place through Somerville Patch, of all things; they held an open house in late June that was in Patch's events listing, and since I was catsitting for a friend in the neighborhood, I decided to check it out and get a free treatment while I was at it. I was a complete wreck at that time, especially emotionally, but after telling Justine my tale of woe and spending an hour resting in a recliner while stuck full of needles, I felt SO MUCH BETTER--it truly was a night-and-day difference for me, and I've been a fan, and a happy client, ever since.)
