What is Auriculotherapy?
​
​Auriculotherapy is a technique of using points on the skin of the auricle (external ear) to find imbalances in the body to provide a program of care. Auriculotherapy is non-invasive and virtually free of side effects.
How does Auriculotherapy work?
Specific points on the ear have been mapped to address specific problems. These points, when stimulated, often have positive effects on the target area of the body.
The exact mechanism by which points on the ear affect other parts of the body is the subject of ongoing research, and several theories are currently under investigation.
What types of imbalances can be helped with auriculotherapy?
Auriculotherapy is most commonly used for pain control, addiction, cravings, weight loss, and help with mental and emotional problems. Because Auriculotherapy can address any part of the body, nearly any problem can be addressed by Auriculotherapy as a primary or complementary form of care.
​
Here are some other examples where Auriculotherapy can be beneficial.
Alcoholism, allergies, anxiety, asthma, bladder control, constipation, depression, drug addiction, gall bladder, headache, hemorrhoids, hyperactivity, impotence, insomnia, knee pain, PMS, shingles, sinusitis, smoking withdrawal, sore throat, stuttering, toothaches, vision problems, weight control…and hundreds more. Your practitioner will be able to address your needs.
Is the process painful?
No, the process is very comfortable. If your practitioner uses electrical stimulation, you may feel a mild electrical sensation. Other forms of treatment, like laser, do not produce any sensation at all. We not not use needles.
How quickly can I expect relief?
The effects can be immediate, depending on what is being addressed, while others are cumulative in nature, become increasingly effective with more sessions.
Why does my practitioner use Auriculotherapy?
Used by itself or in conjunction with other forms of care, Auriculotherapy is a very safe and often effective form of treatment. Side effects are extremely low because, as a natural form of care, Auriculotherapy does not involve drugs or surgery. Your practitioner’s choice to use Auriculotherapy for your condition is evidence of a commitment to provide the best possible treatment in the form of safe, natural therapy.
