Acu-Detox

The NADA protocol represents an ear acupuncture intervention, providing a non-verbal, complementary, and alternative approach to therapeutic healing.

• The process entails the delicate insertion of up to five small, sterilised, single-use, disposable needles into specific energetic points on each ear.

• The client settles into a state of repose for a serene 40 minutes, allowing the treatment to unfold.

• During this time, clients may drift into slumber, enter a meditative state, or experience a profound sense of tranquillity and relaxation.

• The outer ear serves as an intricate switchboard, transmitting impulses to the brain, thereby triggering the release of endorphins, alleviating stress, and inducing a deep state of relaxation.
