International NADA Seminar 2026 - ADS Certification Training | Morges, October 9–11
Because sometimes the simplest interventions carry the most weight.
The first certifying NADA (ADS) training ever held in Switzerland taught in person by the President and Vice-President of NADA.
Learn the NADA protocol (Acudetox): five standardized ear acupuncture points used worldwide to support people facing stress, trauma, addiction, anxiety and sleep disorders. In three days, Dr. Kenneth Carter (President of NADA) and Dr. Warren E. Leggett Jr. (Vice-President of NADA) will train you in a simple, rigorous and immediately applicable protocol, with consecutive French translation throughout. The training takes place in an idyllic setting on the shores of Lake Leman, at the Hôtel Mont-Blanc au Lac in Morges.
