Ear Acupuncture is becoming increasingly recognized as an effective method in treating addiction and controlling food cravings. Many studies have demonstrated it's remarkable effects in staving the cravings of even the most insidious substances such as cocaine and heroin.

We use ear acupuncture routinely for weight loss treatments as well as alcohol and smoking cessation. It not only helps to satiate the urges but also helps control the emotional changes that people usually experience, especially in the early stages of their abstinence. It is these emotional hurdles that are often the biggest challenge for most, while others simply believe their dependence is too fervent to shake off. Nevertheless, some of the seemingly most difficult cases have turned their lives around.

As with all of the treatments in our clinic, we take a multi-faceted approach in tackling every case. Ear acupuncture is still combined with individualized diagnosis and body acupuncture. At times this is coupled with herbal and nutritional supplimentation to facilitate the effectiveness of the treatments and speed up the cleansing process of the body.

It is important to note, the key to success is a true desire to change. Individuals who come to our clinic willingly rather than being coerced by their spouse to "try" the treatments receive the best results.

Aside from cravings, Auricular acupuncture is used for the treatment of many other conditions, some of which include: Anxiety, Angina, Sciatica, Infertility and Headaches.
