This article describes a six-point auricular acupuncture protocol to influence the neuroanatomical and psychoemotional targets of trauma. This protocol can be used immediately or years following the noxious experience. The article addresses the rationale for combining these points, their locations, and methods of stimulation, as well as briefly discussing anecdotal experience in military and civilian populations. The protocol is presented as a simple and safe intervention of potential value for addressing the multiple manifestations of the trauma spectrum.

Auricular acupuncture uses the microsystem of the ear to influence the organs, nervous system, endocrine glands of the entire body. It can be administered in less time than a full acupuncture treatment as well as in a group setting. Curious if this therapy might work for you? Give me a call and let’s talk! 702-204-1342
