James J. Peters VA Hosts Valentines for Veterans 2010
Medical Center 130 W. Kingsbridge Rd Bronx, NY 10468 (718) 741-4273 Fax (718) 741-4269 Department of Veterans Affairs Health Headlines For Immediate Release February 12, 2010 James J. Peters VA Hosts Valentines for Veterans 2010 During the week of February 7-14, the James J. Peters VA Medical Center celebrated the 32nd Annual National Salute to Hospitalized Veterans. The National Salute is a week-long celebration of special thanks that occurs during the week marked by Valentines Day. During this time, VA Medical Centers across the country invite local celebrities, elected officials and school children to visit veterans and to bring them some Valentines Day cheer. This year, the Medical Center hosted Miss Universe 2009 Stefania Fernandez; Miss USA 2009 Kristen Dalton; and Miss Teen USA Stormi Henley; along with State Senator Jeff Klein and members of the SUNY Maritime Color Guard. "The National Salute to Hospitalized Veterans gives everyone a chance to let our veterans know just how very much they are appreciated," said Medical Center Director, MaryAnn Musumeci, "We’re excited to welcome Miss Fernandez, Miss Dalton, Miss Henley and Senator Klein. Their participation just heightens the celebration and brings a special note of cheer to our veterans.” Musumeci said she hopes visitors will also learn more about the important roles volunteers play at the medical center throughout the year and perhaps pursue volunteer opportunities. "Our medical center’s 464 volunteers are an important part of our health care team and donate over 85,000 hours of their precious time to our veterans. The National Salute program is a great way for people to learn more about helping the veterans we serve," Musumeci said. -
Shiatsu and Cancer
SHIATSU AND CANCER As with many other complementary therapies a major benefit for people affected by cancer is having time to talk, be listened to and heard in a safe environment. The shiatsu practitioner is trained to relate to people as individuals and assess their physical, mental, emotional and spiritual needs – essential in recovery from cancer. The power of touch used in shiatsu should never be underestimated. Shiatsu can offer valuable support from the point of diagnosis, immediately after surgery and throughout radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Once treatment is finished, shiatsu sessions can aid recovery, help to renew energy and motivate people to take responsibility for their wellbeing. Shiatsu offers a drug free solution to reduce side effects such as pain, nausea and lethargy associated with surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy and may help to reduce hot flushes in hormone therapy. Shiatsu restores and balances energy levels and triggers the relaxation response easing stress and tension in the body and mind and encouraging restful sleep. Shiatsu facilitates emotional release without the need to ask searching questions, helping to reduce levels of fear and anxiety, dissipate anger and frustration and assist the grieving process. Shiatsu moves the lymph helping to minimise the risk of lymphoedema. Shiatsu assists with the detoxification process. Shiatsu helps to restore hormonal balance in hormone related cancers Shiatsu encourages correct posture, breathing, stretching and exercise Shiatsu may help to boost the immune response Shiatsu improves circulation and enhances wellbeing Shiatsu awakens the spirit and inspires hope for the future. Shiatsu helps people to get back in control, encourages self management and empowers people to take responsibility for their healing and well-being, thereby improving their quality of life. -

Higher insurance premiums. A coming state budget-busting Medicaid expansion. Fewer choices. Less freedom and more government interference. Cuts to Medicare by unelected government bureaucrats. Thousands of pages of regulations. An unconstitutional mandate to buy health insurance. Penalties on employers threatening job creation. Billions of dollars in tax hikes and, once fully implemented, $2.6 trillion in new health care spending. It’s no wonder that a majority of Americans oppose the law today.3 In fact, poll after poll shows that a majority of Americans want the Supreme Court to overturn the law.4 As practicing physicians, we believed – long before Congress passed the health spending law – that the health care law did not represent real health care reform. -
