Acupuncture Special for Nurses & First Responders

Many Rivers Community Acupuncture is offering $15 acupuncture treatments for nurses and first responders during the month of October. Nurses, EMTs, firefighters, police officers, and other first responders are welcome to take advantage of this special, whether they are new or returning patients.

“We are grateful for the life-saving work of nurses and first responders. They work incredibly long hours, respond to every distress call, and often put their own lives on the line. We want to thank them for their dedication and compassion,” said Many Rivers acupuncturist Mary Cole, L.Ac.

“Nurses and first responders work in stressful situations,” says Many Rivers acupuncturist Heather Finn, L.Ac. “Acupuncture calms the nervous system, restoring the body’s equilibrium after the fight or flight response is activated. We love watching the stress melt away during an acupuncture session.”

Since nurses and first responders work long hours on their feet, they can have problems with headaches and pain in their neck, shoulders, back and feet. Acupuncture can provide pain relief by reducing inflammation, promoting circulation, and by changing the way the brain perceives pain.

It can be challenging for nurses and first responders to access regular health care due to their irregular working hours. To help with this issue, Many Rivers uses a convenient online scheduling system, which allows patients to instantly schedule an appointment in real-time. Appointments can be scheduled anywhere from ten minutes to two months ahead.

Many Rivers Community Acupuncture, LLC is located at 3 Barnard Lane, Suite 205, in Bloomfield. To schedule an appointment, call (860) 683-0011 or use the online schedule at http://www.manyriversacupuncture.com.
