2/22/2019 0 Comments Celebrating Black History MonthIn the 1970's, the Black Panthers and other activists, including the Young Lords, established a detox facility at Lincoln Hospital in New York to respond to drug addiction issues in their communities. Mutulu Shakur, stepfather to Tupac Shakur, was one of the activists who became an acupuncturist during this time.
Among many other things, these activists helped established an auricular acupuncture protocol based off of work being done in China, and this protocol is still widely used today. We're grateful for this history and all the work that came before us. Today, we offer this acupuncture to help with drug addiction here in Skagit: http://www.didgwalic.com/ And two international organizations focus their efforts based on this auricular acupuncture protocol: https://acudetox.com/ and http://www.acuwithoutborders.org/
