What is Battlefield Acupuncture?

Battlefield Acupuncture (BFA) is a specific auricular (ear) acupuncture protocol developed for rapid pain relief and nervous system regulation. It involves placing small needles in specific ear points to reduce pain and calm the stress response. Our approach combines neuroscience, psychopharmacology, psychotherapy, and integrative modalities to support the nervous system as a whole.

​

Mental health and pain are deeply connected through the nervous system. By combining medication, therapy, and targeted acupuncture techniques, treatment can address both brain chemistry and physiological stress patterns.
