Greetings all, attention Veterans! Good News!
I just want to give you a heads up about a free resource for veterans of all eras in Yuba City. I know that's a long way to go, but many of you travel to Sacramento for V.A. services so, consider this:
Spa Therapy Wellness Center has been in business for eight years in Yuba City, and has recently opened a new 3600 square foot facility in Plumas Ct., at the end of Plumas St., owned by Physical Therapist, Jennifer Nagy-Cordray. The Gold Studio, which provides a calming location for the long awaited wellness classes has plenty of room. During this interim period, while classes are still small, Spa Therapy would like to offer 24 veterans in need a free six week class in trauma resolution skills out of thanks for contributing to our ability to thrive.
This powerful Relaxation & Trauma resolution skills class, known as ‘iRest,’ has been used at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C. In a preliminary study done at Walter Reed, iRest has been shown to help alleviate symptoms in military personnel returning from Iraq and Afghanistan with P.T.S.D. Soldiers suffering a 40 or higher on the military’s post-traumatic stress scale showed a decrease of 24 points after practicing iRest as a relaxation technique.
Spa Therapy Wellness center is donating the space. I am donating the expertise. We still have some spots open. Each free stipend will be good for a six week series of iRest classes beginning Jan. 3rd on Thursdays from 2:30-3:30 p.m. Each stipend will also include six audio CD’s to work with at home. Using a CD while falling asleep can reinforce the relaxation benefits of the live classes. Each CD will match the six steps of the class, gradually taking each Stipend recipient through a series of stages in the direction of wholeness and balance. Your cost: zero. Please call me or email me for more information and help spread the word! This is not only an amazing deal, it works! Please do not suffer in isolation. You have to take the first step, contact me, Gabrielle Pullen, at 530 263-3323.
