National Acupuncture Detoxification Association (NADA) Protocol. The points: 1 Sympathetic; 2 Shen Men; 3 Kidney; 4 Liver; and 5 Lung provide balance and yin nourishment with the presumptive diagnosis of yin deficiency, “empty fire”, and the conventional medicine diagnoses of behavioral health. The NADA protocol includes bilateral manual needling of one to five points typically delivered frequently (often daily) with participants sitting quietly in groups for 30–45 min, or the application of seeds/beads, often just on Shen Men or Reverse Shen Men (opposite Shen Men on the back of the ear).
