Acu-balance is based on the NADA protocol created by Dr. Michael Smith. Smith created the protocol to treat Heroine and Cocaine addiction in the South Bronks in 1974. It has been a very successful program and has expanded to clinics all over the world treating a broad range of stress related disorders. Acu-balance is a similar protocol to NADA, but a few more acupuncture points have been added to enhance the treatment.
Acu-balance uses interdermal tacks instead of acupuncture needles on the Master Points, so that you can have continual stimulation of the points on the ear, and the ability to increase stimulation when you need it most.
Acu-balance is a nonverbal therapy. We provide the needles, while you create calm and quiet within yourself. This helps enhance the effectiveness of the treatment. Massage therapy for a few minutes after the treatment is highly recommended.
The tacks stay in your ear for 2 to 3 days. When the tacks fall out, you may come in for more to keep continual stimulation on the points
The longer you continue your Acu-balance treatments, the more effective they become.
We are launching a study of Acu-balance. If you participate, you will receive a discount on your treatments.
