I had a Healing Touch practitioner call on me while I was inpatient. I thought that I felt some relief, but I was on so many drugs at the time and my memory is so spotty from the first month following the concussion.
I'm trying to locate this practioner, but haven't had much sucess as yet.

There are two different Healing Touch websites you should try and look for her on there. If she is practicing in the hospital....she definetly has her contact info in the registry. Healing Touch broke off into two programs, but both started by the same nurse. They are pretty much the exact same thing, just called two different names. Healing Touch International and Healing Touch Program. Check out both their websites. But I'm sure whoever you go to in your area will be wonderful and well worth it!
Also, some acupuncture is covered by insurance as well. Check with your plan. Mine covers 20 visits a year and i have a $15 copay. Best benefit i have!

Suffered a TBI with PCS on April 25th 2011 from multiple blows to the head from falling, unconscious for 12 hours with no memory of event. Hit the back of my head, and above right eye. MRI and CT negative. Symptoms included constant headaches (migraine, pressure, tension, icepicks), dizziness, tinnitus, visual changes, photophobia, fatigue, "spacing out", word finding difficulties, depression, and emotional lability.
Began Healing in November 2011 after starting acupuncture and Healing Touch (a nurturing energy therapy that promotes relaxation and pain relief). I went back to work in February 2012. Ive been symptom free since July 2012. Very happy, positive, energetic and working out every day, doing yoga, and living a normal life again!
I also began taking Healing Touch classes in November 2011 and completed 5 Levels of Healing Touch Certificate Program that included a 1 year mentorship to become a Healing Touch International Practitioner in June 2013. I am so pleased to offer this wonderful healing therapy to my patients, friends, and clients.
