Addiction Acupuncture
Addiction acupuncture helps those with substance misuse, alcohol or drug addiction, to stop smoking etc by addressing withdrawal symptoms, cravings, and emotional stress.
Benefits of Addiction Acupuncture?
Holistic Approach
Addiction acupuncture still places an emphasis on optimal health whilst addressing lifestyle, nutrition, physical and emotional health.
Cravings and Withdrawal
Addiction acupuncture supports those dealing with substance use disorders by addressing withdrawal symptoms, cravings, and emotional stress.
This could be an addiction to;
Nicotine or e-cigarettes
Alcohol
Class A Drugs – Heroin, Cocaine, LSD, Ecstasy, Magic Mushrooms
Class B Drugs – Amphetamines, Cannabis, Methylphenidate, Ketamine, Barbiturates
Class C Drugs – Benzodiazapines, anabolic steroids, GHB, Tramadol, some prescription medication
Food – sugar addiction, eating disorders

Stress Management
Stress often triggers addictive behaviour or contributes to relapse.
Addiction acupuncture releases endorphins, the body’s natural stress-relievers. It supports the vagus nerve and calms the nervous system.
NADA Protocol
The NADA (National Acupuncture Detoxification Association) protocol is a specific form of addiction acupuncture that targets key points on the ear to aid in addiction recovery. This scientifically proven protocol is used successfully in drug and alcohol rehabilitation centres worldwide.
Drug-free. Safe. Natural.
Addiction acupuncture offers a natural, safe, drug free alternative to medication and side effects.
