| Acudetox Implementation Date May 2009 | |
| Understanding the principles of both Chinese medicine and chemical dependency can lead to significant benefit in recovery from all forms of drug addiction as well as alcoholism and a variety of mental disorders such as weight loss and smoking cessation. The National Acupuncture Detoxification Association’s (NADA) Acudetox protocol involves the gentle placement of five small, sterilized, disposable stainless steel needles in specific sites on each ear of a patient undergoing treatment. The Acudetox treatment is a non-verbal process that does not require the consumer to begin treatment through extended interviews or disclosure of personal information. The treatment service is immediate, tangible and visible to the person who has entered the treatment center for the first time, and can be provided as an initial treatment program before the consumer has to establish a bonding relationship of confidence and trust with the counseling staff. The Acudetox treatment helps participants become relaxed and more comfortable with his or her own thoughts, enabling patients to experience a sense of “letting go” of tensions and apprehensions, and supporting quiet participation in a group setting with others who are involved in the process of recovery (Chi Farm Acupuncture Clinic). | |
