Acupuncture
Thin needles placed at specific points on your body, used alongside counseling and medical care in your treatment plan at Hollick Institute. Acupuncture can ease withdrawal discomfort, cravings, and the restlessness that comes with early recovery. You stay clothed, sessions run short, and your clinical team tracks how you respond.
How Acupuncture Works in Treatment
A session starts with you lying still while a licensed acupuncturist places thin, sterile needles at specific points, often in the ears. You stay put for around 20 to 30 minutes. Most people feel very little beyond a small pinch, and many describe the time as calming. In recovery, acupuncture can ease cravings, restlessness, and the sleep problems that make early sobriety harder. It works best as one piece of your plan, not a standalone fix. Your clinicians track how you respond and adjust the treatment as your needs change over the weeks ahead.
