We interviewed Carmela Mager, L.AC., from Acupuncture Healing Center of Chapel Hill to learn more about their practice and how Dogwood Studio fits in with their vision. Carmela explains a little bit about her love for the medicine and her commitment to her community.
Healing of Illnesses Linked to Alternative Therapies and Understanding Trauma
Although it would be nice if it were not true, no one can claim to go through life without experiencing physical or emotional trauma. Trauma does not need to be something huge, like surviving a natural disaster. Instead, trauma can be a small occurrence that affects us in a big way that we may not realize is the cause. The trauma could be related to constant pressure such as concern over the pandemic or job demands. Traumas can also come from unresolved issues from the past that are activated again in the present.
