Welcome to The Veterans Disability Nexus, where we provide unique insights and expertise on medical evidence related to VA-rated disabilities.
Leah Bucholz, a US Army Veteran, Physician Assistant, & former Compensation & Pension Examiner shares her knowledge related to Independent Medical Opinions often referred to as \\u201cNexus Letters\\u201d in support of your pursuit of VA Disability every Wednesday at 7AM.\\xa0

Leah discusses Battlefield Acupuncture, a technique developed by Air Force veteran Dr. Nimitzau. This form of auricular (ear) acupuncture is designed for rapid deployment among healthcare professionals in military settings, offering non-traditional, pharmacologic pain relief for various conditions, including orthopedic issues and migraines. Frequently used in the military and available in VA clinics, it involves placing small, semi-permanent ASP needles at five specific points in the ear. While not a universal remedy, many service members report benefits such as reduced stress and improved sleep. Leah, sharing her personal experience, mentions possible side effects like minor discomfort and infection risk, advising veterans to consult their healthcare providers to determine if it\'s suitable for them.
