The In’s and Outs of IEP’s
With Dr. Rebecca Hawley, Special Ed Law Advocate&amp; Child Development Specialist

This event is a must for parents of teens and young adults who have IEP’s (Individual Education Programs) or for those who are hoping to get one for their struggling child.

In conversation with Family Sanity Founder Lisa Scimens, Dr. Hawley will discuss: &nbsp;Is it ever too late to get an IEP?

How do I get a neuropsych evaluation?&nbsp; What if I can’t pay for it?
How do I get my school district to pay for a special school or a therapeutic program or an RTC?
Does my child’s IEP continue when they go to college?
What are my rights as a parent?

(This event will be recorded and can be replayed as a Family Sanity Podcast in the near future.)Tickets: www.familysanity.org

Treat your ears (and all your senses) to acupuncture while grooving to R&amp;B and the sweet vibes of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.piedmontavenue.org/happenings" rel="nofollow noopener">Piedmont Ave. Summer Night Market</a>, just up the road from the clinic on Santa Clara Avenue in Oakland. Wonderful acupuncturist, <a target="_blank" href="https://evashu.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">Eva Shu</a>, whom I'm lucky enough to share an office with, will be joining the party. 

Ear Acupuncture Treatments are 20 minutes and $20. 

All we need is the answer to one question: "Would you like to work on pain, stress, or both?" 

Big thanks to Steve of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.marsrecordshop.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">Mars Records</a><a target="_blank" href="https://www.marsrecordshop.com/" rel="nofollow noopener"> </a>and Deb from PAMA for hosting us! 

How Does Ear Acupuncture Work?
The ear is a holographic layout of your entire body. By placing needles or seeds on specific points on the ear, we can stimulate qi (energy/prana) and xue (blood) to flow to and through a specific part of the body or organ system, moving stagnation (a major cause of pain, indeed, it is a Chinese Medicine trope that "there is no pain without stagnation, in the absence of stagnation there is no pain," to paraphrase), or simply send the message to your own body that it's time to rebalance the area or organ we have brought attention to with the needle.

Each person will receive a personalized adaptation of the National Acupuncture Detoxification Association (NADA) protocol, which was designed for nervous system regulation specifically to address the discomfort that comes with addictions recovery, and/or Battlefield Acupuncture (BFA) which was developed as an analgesic for those suffering from acute pain.

If you would like a more specific treatment, we will ask you 2-3 very basic questions quietly in the space to protect your privacy and decide which points will benefit you most. You may receive the exact NADA or BFA protocol, a blend of the two, or something slightly different if the need arises.

For example, let's say you arrive in acute pain due to menstrual cramps. Your treatment would likely consist of NADA on one ear to assist you in dealing with the strain on your nervous system of being in pain, and a modified version of BFA on the other ear to target the uterus.

Lastly, in community style acupuncture, you will receive your treatment among peers, in a group of up to 6 people.
