Smoking / Addiction: Chinese Medicine has beneficial effects on addiction to various substances. The most commonly treated addictions are smoking and alcoholism. Smoking has a severe impact on  the circulatory, respiratory and digestive systems. 

In TCM, smoking weakens the Lung’s function of commanding the overall movement of (energy) Qi and Blood. It creates Heat in the Lung and Stomach, which in turn will cause Fire in the Heart and/or stagnation of Liver (energy) Qi, hence withdrawal symptoms such as nausea, palpitations, mood swings and restlessness occur. Chinese medicine can reduce the craving for cigarettes. Experience shows that patients after treatment often report a metallic taste in their mouth or feeling of dislike for the smell of tobacco.

National Acupuncture Detoxification Association (NADA) has been developed a particular protocol to treat the addiction / alcoholism / drug dependencies. This method is performing by insertion of five needles in each auricle through the points correspond to the following internal organs, liver / spleen / kidney / lung and also shenmen (Gate of Spirit) and Parasympathetic.
