Official title
Using Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) to Promote Stress Resilience in Those With Co-Occurring Mild TBI and PTSD
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The current study will assess the efficacy of acupressure, a type of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in the Veteran population. Veterans with co-occurring mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) will be consented and randomly assigned to either an active or placebo acupressure treatment series of 8 sessions. The investigators will determine if acupressure affects aspects of day-to-day function, such as memory, sleep, mood, psychiatric health and stress resilience. This information will help identify potential treatment strategies to improve quality of life and overall function in this particular Veteran population.
