Ear Acupuncture and Addiction Recovery

Acupuncture—particularly ear acupuncture using the NADA protocol—has been widely used as a supportive approach in addiction treatment. The video presentation below was created for one of my classes and explores both why the ear is used and how ear acupuncture supports addiction recovery.

It provides a clear, accessible introduction to the physiological and neurological mechanisms discussed in relation to ear acupuncture, making it a useful learning resource for students and clinical practitioners alike.
