The National Acupuncture Detoxification Association (NADA) ear acupuncture protocol is a non-verbal approach to healing that involves the gentle placement of up to five small, sterilized disposable needles into specific sites on each ear. The recipients sit quietly in a group setting for 30-45 minutes. NADA ear acupuncture is an adjunct therapy which is clinically effective, cost-efficient, drug-free and compatible cross-culturally. The protocol is understood to have less of one specific effect on addictions or any single behavioral health condition, rather as a stress reduction and calming technique beneficial as an adjunct to many different conditions. The combined application of acupuncture with counseling, education, medical support and self-help groups such as AA and NA enhances opportunities for success (https://acudetox.com/).
This protocol was offered to First Responders and trauma survivors immediately following the attacks on 9/11. A NADA-based acudetox stress clinic was also made available to those who lived and worked in the area around Ground Zero, their families and those who provided their care.
Do you have a group of officers or support staff who would benefit from Group Ear Acupuncture?
