battlefield acupuncture
PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. – Peterson Air Force Base medical providers are able to provide auricular acupuncture for patients experiencing acute or chronic pain. The treatment, also called battlefield acupuncture, uses needles that appear as gold studs in the ear and come out between three to seven days as the skin grows out. These are approved for military members as they are medical devices and not for decoration. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Rose Gudex)
