Summary
The experience of deployment is often associated with mental, physical, and relationship challenges for Veterans. Veterans’ and their partners’ mental health and pain levels were compared before and after a wellness training program called Mission Reconnect, which integrated stress-release strategies and couples’ massages. Results suggested that the program improved Veterans’ and partners’ well-being.
