Several years ago, the state of Colorado passed a law allowing Licensed Mental Health professionals to provide this valuable non-verbal form of treatment. Erica became certified to provide this therapy within the scope of her practice as a licensed clinical social worker and a senior addictions counselor.
The NADA (National Acupuncture Detoxification Association) treatment involves the insertion of 5 sterile needles in each ear where one then rests for 30-45 minutes.
NADA has provided a variety of benefits to those recovering from:
- Many types of trauma including disaster relief and emotional trauma
- Addictions
- Relief from every day stress
Some of the benefits from NADA include:
- Reduced cravings for alcohol and drugs, including nicotine
- Minimized withdrawal symptoms
- Increased calmness, better sleep, and less agitation
- Relief from stress and emotional trauma
- An easier connection with counseling
- A discovery of inner quiet and strength
Erica provides NADA auricular acupuncture within the scope of her psychotherapy and yoga therapy practice whenever it may be of benefit. She can also provide NADA as a stand alone service. Please contact us for more information.
