Yes; most acupuncturists utilize Auricular Therapy (ear acupuncture) with specific points that affect the brain, and the craving for nicotine. This therapy is most effectively combined with herbs that lower cravings for cigarettes and are then followed up with an herbal Lung tonic to restore the Lung health, such as White Tiger Return.

Ear acupuncture is the most common form of acupuncture treatment to help quit smoking. Consider finding an acupuncturist or community acupuncture clinic where you can receive treatment several times per week; when your cravings return, you will want to return to the acupuncturist. Often, small ear seeds can be placed with tape over the useful points in the ear, and allow you to stimulate these points at home between treatments.
