At Healing Junction, we provide "integrated" health care: we combine western and complementary approaches to promote optimal health and well-being. We believe that many problems must be treated at the “root.” While conventional therapies may treat the symptoms, they often don’t look at what is the underlying cause of a condition. Call us and we will be happy to explain how we would help you. Our main office is in Chicago at 3322 N Ashland #2 and we have offices in the Oak Park and Palos Park area. Please call 800-449-0770 to make an appointment at any office. By offering integrated medicine together with healing therapies for body, mind, and soul, we tailor an optimal approach for each individual. We will be happy to offer you a free phone consultation to see if we can help you. We offer you many healing resources, for example: Acupuncture

2009 Medical/Solar Mission to Raktrul, Tibet The medical/solar team accomplished a great deal in a short amount of time. As project director, I want to thank everyone who helped to make this trip a success. Walt Ratterman, Sharon Lang and Don Dyer were the core participants, without them we would have never gotten off the ground. Of course, Bardor Rinpoche, his family and all of the villagers from around Raktrul made this whole project possible. We are most grateful to everyone. We went expecting to set up a temporary clinic, do a needs analysis (still in the making), install 800-1000 watts in solar power and get a buy in from the surrounding villages for future projects. We got more than we could have ever hoped for. We saw over 1100 patients in 11 days! 700 pairs of eyeglasses were distributed! We gave backpacks and school supplies to close to 150 local school children. We had budgeted $24,000 dollars for 1000 watts of power, due to incredible pricing, we got 2000 watts at $18,000, we lit up five areas with an original goal of two, with power to spare! The most incredible news was that the Chinese government is giving back land nearby with two schoolhouses and a small house that the villages committed to turn into a medical facility (Pictures in the medical photo gallery, long brown buildings). This takes care of the $100,000 we thought we needed for a permanent building. Now we can spend the money on x-ray, dental, doctors, etc. We also have started training a young woman (Doira, our cook) to be a translator and clinic assistant. We will continue to identify people like her to become nurses and community health workers. When it comes to the needs of these villagers, much of it starts at the basics: hygiene, infrastructure, clean water, sanitation. Many of them have probably never seen a toilet in their life. They work so hard it’s amazing their joints don’t give out (actually we probably treated over 2000 Tibetan knees with acupuncture while there!). Yet, with all the adversity and hard knocks they are some of the happiest, grateful and loving people I have ever met. Their devotion to spirituality, family and community permeated everything they do. We learned a lot from them. NIGHT INTO DAY : The Plan for 2010 The Raktrul Foundation will support the efforts of the Tibetan community in the following ways: Bring a team from the US in the summer of 2010 to offer additional medical services, continuing health care education and a reassessment of the needs of the people in the greater Raktrul area. Formally acquire from the Chinese government the newly donated school property, located adjacent to the Raktrul Nunnery near the village of Dortam. Develop an agreement between Raktrul Foundation and the local community to collaborate on the establishment of a new medical facility. Identify the renovation and construction needs of the newly acquired buildings and create a rehab work plan which will include an energy assessment to determine whether the new clinic can rely on solar systems. Identify the various tradesmen and contractors needed to complete the work for the medical facility. If you would like to be a part of the Night Into Day Mission, please contact our Medical Director: Kirk Moulton for more information about our needs. We welcome your support. From Bardor Rinpoche and all the team, Tashi Delek! Kirk Moulton
