Auricular Acupuncture is a specialised form of acupuncture on the external surface of the ear, auricle. The aim of Auricular Acupuncture is to reduce stress and anxiety and to help alleviate the sensations of withdrawal and craving, by releasing endorphins and other neurotransmitters such as serotonin.
Auricular acupuncture is particularly beneficial for people trying to stop smoking, drug or alcohol abuse. Britta uses the National Acupuncture Detoxification Association treatment method, known as the NADA protocol, which is used around the world to help people in the process of detoxification from substance abuse as well as to helpwith the emotional, physical and psychological attributes involved
in addictions.
Britta offers Auricular Acupunture at her private practice in south west London.
For those seeking treatment outside of London or the UK, Britta recommends the Quitza online directory. Here you can search for other Acupuncture practitioners worldwide.
