NADA 5-point acupuncture is an auricular (ear) acupuncture protocol that uses up to five small, disposable needles inserted into specific points in each ear: Shen Men, Sympathetic, Kidney, Liver, and Lung.
Developed by the National Acupuncture Detoxification Association (NADA), it was initially created to help with addiction withdrawal and cravings but is now used as an adjunctive therapy for various issues, including trauma, stress, PTSD, and general mental health support.
The five ear points and their functions
Shen Men: Also known as the "Spirit Gate," it calms the mind and body, reduces anxiety, and promotes detoxification.
Sympathetic: Helps calm the nervous system by regulating the fight-or-flight response, which can also help with pain relief and overall relaxation.
Kidney: Addresses fear and supports the healing of internal organs, supports adrenalin function and hormone production
Liver: Aids in detoxification and blood purification, and can help with issues like anger and aggression.
Lung: Promotes aeration, helps people let go of grief, and supports the release of emotions.
A starter course of 6 is recommended
Once a week for 4 weeks, with the last 2, 2 weeks apart.
Then 2 - 4 weekly appointment depending on needs
