In my clinic, I offer ear acupuncture at low cost for established patients. Auricular acupuncture is a simple, low-cost, and effective means of healing the mind via the body. The ear reflex points correspond with areas of the body, including reflex areas that help calm the mind or regulate the sympathetic nervous system. Auricular acupuncture is used for a host of complaints, physical and emotional and lately has been particularly successful in treating troops with PTSD and stress related to serving overseas, and adjusting once home. At Camp Leatherneck in Afghanistan, for the past several months, Navy Lt. Orlando Cabrera, a physician and medical acupuncturist, has been treating everything from combat trauma to sore shoulders and anxiety with his unique set of medical skills.
