Auricular Acupuncture

Group Healing & Nervous System Reset

AcuDetox is a gentle, evidence-informed acupuncture protocol designed to support stress reduction, emotional regulation, and overall nervous system balance.

I offer AcuDetox in small group settings in Tucson as part of a quiet, restorative experience.

What Is AcuDetox?

AcuDetox (also known as the NADA protocol) is a standardized, 5-point ear acupuncture treatment that has been used for decades to support:

  • Stress and anxiety

  • Emotional overwhelm

  • Sleep disturbances

  • Substance use recovery support

  • Nervous system regulation

The treatment involves placing small, sterile needles in specific points of the ear while you rest quietly for about 30–45 minutes.

What to Expect

Each session is designed to be calm, simple, and restorative.

  • Brief grounding or check-in

  • Gentle placement of ear acupuncture needles

  • 30–45 minutes of quiet rest (seated or lying down)

  • Optional guided meditation or sound support

  • Closing and transition

No talking is required during the treatment portion—this is a space to simply rest.

Who This Is For

AcuDetox may be a good fit if you:

  • Feel chronically stressed or overwhelmed

  • Have difficulty slowing down or relaxing

  • Want a non-verbal, body-based approach to support regulation

  • Are looking for a quiet, low-pressure wellness experience

The Benefits

Many participants report:

  • A sense of calm or grounding

  • Reduced anxiety or tension

  • Improved sleep

  • Emotional release or clarity

Responses vary from person to person, and results often build with consistency.

Important Note

AcuDetox is a wellness service, not psychotherapy or medical treatment.

It does not diagnose or treat mental health or medical conditions.
It can be used alongside therapy, medical care, or other supports.
