After the tragic events of 9/11, Colonel Richard C. Niemtzow MD, PhD, MPH was inspired to develop a more efficient and rapid form of pain relief. Through his research on auriculotherapy, a form of acupuncture that focuses on the ear, he discovered that it could be used to stop pain. This led to the birth of battlefield acupuncture, a term coined by Colonel Niemtzow. The technique has shown amazing results and has become a valuable tool for providing pain relief in a variety of settings. The impact of the world trade center attack led to an innovation in medical treatment that continues to benefit countless individuals in need of pain relief.
