There are over 300 nerve endings in your ear and approximately the same amount in your foot

 

Some personal testimony

I lost 25 lbs in a month by stimulating some tiny needles in my ear when I was hungry or tense

One was for appetite and one for stress.


My wife had graves disease and was told by the endocrinologist that she would have to take pills for at least 5

years and would be unable to nurse our newborn daughter. She was unwilling to accept those findings and

the  treatment prescribed so she did some reasearch and chose medical accupuncture which brought

all her chemical imbalances back to normal, the progress was verified by monthly blood work.

She never took one pill and it was covered by blue shield.

 

the points in the picture just above are for treating obesity and quitting smoking

Hello, My name is Dale. I was quit 18 months before joining this site and had participated on another site during that time. I learned a lot there and brought it with me. I joined this site the first week of August 2008. I didn't pressure myself to quit. HOW I QUIT I didn't count, I didn't deny myself to get started. When I considered quitting (at a friends request to influence his brother to quit), I simply told myself to wait a little longer. No denial, nothing painful. After 4 weeks I was down to 5 cigarettes from a pack a day. The strength came from proving to myself, I didn't need to smoke because I normally would have smoked. Simple yes? I bought the patch. I forgot to put one on on the 4th day. I needed it the next day but the following week I forgot two days in a row I put one in my wallet with a promise to myself that I would slap it on and wait an hour rather than smoke. It rode in my wallet my first year.There's nothing keeping any of you from doing this. It doesn't cost a dime. This is about unlearning something you've done for a long time. The nicotine isn't the hard part. Disconnecting from the psychological pull, the memories and connected emotions is. :-) Time is the healer.
