THE GRASSROOTS PROTOCOL
|
NADA is a community based acupuncture protocol that consists of up to 5 points in each ear. Its strength lies in providing a free, accessible, reliable, and effective treatment that reaches to both the root and branch of health challenges. By addressing both cause and symptom, this holistic approach can support people in attaining a deeper state of health and well-being. The protocol was developed in the 1970s for people experiencing addiction and is still commonly used in this way. Its application has since expanded to include many other experiences including trauma, insomnia, PTSD, ADHD, mental health challenges, and general stress.

/ADDICTION
|
NADA NOLA is comprised of trained, volunteer Acupuncture Detoxification Specialists. We are a varied group of practitioners who all believe in providing accessible models of care to this beloved city we call home. We began offering the protocol weekly at Maypop Community Herb Shop in 2011 and continue to offer a weekly clinic Thursdays at 3401 St Claude Ave. We also provide treatments on a less regular basis and at special events throughout the year. Some in our group have been practicing NADA since 2006 in response to Hurricane Katrina. Others of us came to the protocol after experiencing its value and potency. All of us are continually empowered by the strength of this protocol to inspire lasting changes.
