UNLOCK RAPID PAIN RELIEF AND BEYOND WITH BATTLEFIELD ACUPUNCTURE
Developed by Dr. Richard C. Niemtzow in 2001, a retired Air Force colonel and the first full-time physician acupuncturist in the Armed Forces, this unique ear acupuncture protocol uses semi-permanent ASP® needles on specific ear points to influence pain processing in the central nervous system.
It provides immediate and sustained pain relief, according to Dr Niemtzow, and has also shown effectiveness in addressing anxiety and insomnia.
Recognized in 2019 by the Association of American Medical Colleges as a solution to fight the opioid crisis, the Battlefield Protocol was featured in the 2012 documentary "Escape Fire: The Fight to Rescue American Healthcare."
