Perhaps in this case Acupuncture is not your first choice as a therapy. But if you are considering it, you do have quite a few options. Toyohari trained Acupuncturists use a non-insertive technique which may be quite effective for the treatment of children and people who suffer from chronic pain and have a phobia of needles.
Another option is treating the whole body through the ears. The ears are used as a direct feed to the brain and to help change the message of pain the body is receiving. Typically, little seeds, tiny magnets, or very thin, short needles are available and used on specific areas on the ear. This is called Auricular Acupuncture, and although the use of needling the ears began centuries ago in China, it has been expanded to be used today by paramilitary personnel for trauma treatment. It is used in treating withdrawal symptoms from drugs or addictive cravings as well as stress relief.
