My sessions with Grace have been extremely beneficial. Grace has been great at navigating the migrating nature of my nerve pain. Whether it was my back, legs, feet, or hands Grace relieved the discomfort. I recommend you to try her service.

I have been working with Grace every week for the past three months. She helped to reduce my severe neck and shoulder discomfort in a significant way. Besides her effective bodywork, I also enjoy the conversation. I can feel she cares about my well-being.

Medical massage is an opiate-free alternative for chronic pain. According to the US Department of Veterans Affairs, “Clinical massage therapy is one of the evidence-based, complementary, and integrative health (CIH) approaches within the VHA Whole Health System of care covered by the Veteran’s medical benefits package when deemed clinically necessary by their care team…” Read more.

I started working with Veterans through Zeel on the weekends at my clinic in Santa Cruz in the Autumn of 2023. Some of the most profound healing experiences I have witnessed were with these patients. The clinical case they presented challenged me to learn new ways of working.
Chronic lower back and neck pain are common complaints. Limited range of motion and nerve compression are not uncommon either. It takes time for the body and the mind to heal. I am grateful that the Veterans Affairs offers a series of 12 sessions for each patient. The request for return from former patients is 100%. They all benefit from the work and know continuing the session can help them move further on their wellness journey.
The VAMC referral approval can take a while. You must continue to call your VAMC to check-in. I understand the waiting period can be frustrating. Remember not to give up!
