FREE Ear Acupuncture + Ear Seeds
May

FREE Ear Acupuncture + Ear Seeds

The AcuDetox/NADA 5 point acupuncture protocol is a form of auricular (ear) acupuncture designed to help people recover from shock, trauma, and addiction. NADA is great for anyone wishing to reduce stress, build immunity and detoxify the body. If you would like the treatment but don't want needles, ear seeds are available.

To enjoy the benefits of ear acupuncture, you will be resting on a massage table or zero gravity chair. You do not have to wear anything in particular, or undress (but you can certainly remove your shoes and get cozy). Expect to spend 20 minutes resting with the needles, or just stop in for ear seeds if you are on the go. Ear seeds can be applied in just a few minutes.

Free Ear Acupuncture Clinics are provided as part of our mission to train new NADA AcuDetox Specialists. Your treatment may be offered by someone still in training, with both an ADS (AcuDetox specialist) and a Licensed Acupuncturist supervising each treatment.

This is a free service for the community. (Donations always welcome.)

Masks are optional for both staff and participants, but if you come in wearing a mask your practitioner will wear a mask as well. Please reschedule if you are not feeling well!

Facial Cupping Class

Facial Cupping Class with Samantha Story, L.Ac

Facial cupping is an easy and effective way to support the health of your skin. It is also a great technique for easing jaw tension, sinus pressure, seasonal allergies, and to boost immunity.

Rooted in the Chinese Medical belief that movement is key to health, cupping releases tension, boosts circulation and drains lymph. This practice works beautifully as a stand alone practice or in conjunction with other practices like gua sha. You will leave this class with confidence to continue to support your skin at home with your cupping practice. 

Topics Covered

  • Origins of cupping

  • Contraindications

  • Skin Prep

  • Technique

  • Facial Cupping Protocol

  • Q+A

$70 for the class if you have your own facial cups, $95 for class + a set of Lure Essentials facial cups (choose the add on at checkout)

Space is limited, register here

The AcuDetox/NADA 5 point acupuncture protocol is a form of auricular (ear) acupuncture designed to help people recover from shock, trauma, and addiction. NADA is great for anyone wishing to reduce stress, build immunity and detoxify the body. If you would like the treatment but don't want needles, ear seeds are available.

To enjoy the benefits of ear acupuncture, you will be resting on a massage table or zero gravity chair. You do not have to wear anything in particular, or undress (but you can certainly remove your shoes and get cozy). Expect to spend 20 minutes resting with the needles, or just stop in for ear seeds if you are on the go. Ear seeds can be applied in just a few minutes.

Free Ear Acupuncture Clinics are provided as part of our mission to train new NADA AcuDetox Specialists. Your treatment may be offered by someone still in training, with both an ADS (AcuDetox specialist) and a Licensed Acupuncturist supervising each treatment.

This is a free service for the community. (Donations always welcome.)

Masks are optional for both staff and participants, but if you come in wearing a mask your practitioner will wear a mask as well. Please reschedule if you are not feeling well!

Reserve your spot for Free Ear Acupuncture here. For ear seeds/ear beads, just stop in between 4:30-6:30
