An electronic medical device designed to relieve anxiety, insomnia and depression transmits currents through attachments on the earlobes of a Soldier while auricular acupuncture stimulates areas on the ear during an alternative medicine treatment session at the William Beaumont Army Medical Center Interdisciplinary Pain Management Clinic, Feb. 11.
