Community 5 Point Ear Acupuncture

What is Five Point Acupuncture Treatment?

It is a standardized ear acupuncture and acupressure treatment that involves the gentle placement of up to 5 needles into specific sites on each ear and sitting quietly, usually in a group settling of about 10 people for 30-45 minutes.

The outer ear acts like a switchboard that sends impulses to the brain, which stimulates the release of endorphins, lowers stress and induces relaxtion. 

Benefits include but are not limited to:

• Increased calmness, better sleep

• Decrease in anxiety and agitation

• Reduced cravings for alcohol and other drugs (including nicotine)

• Relief from stress and trauma 

• Easier connection with couseling and other health and healing treatments

This treatment is facilitated by Tina Krayer, an acupuncture detoxification specialist.
