Auricular (Ear) Acupuncture

Auricular acupuncture is a specialized form of acupuncture that focuses on the ear as a microsystem of the entire body. Based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine and supported by modern neuroscience, this treatment involves the gentle insertion of fine, sterile needles into specific points on the ear that correspond to various organs, systems, and body functions.

The ear contains hundreds of acupuncture points that can be used to address a wide range of physical, emotional, and neurological conditions. Auricular acupuncture is often used on its own or as a complement to body acupuncture and other therapies.

Common benefits include:

• Relief from stress, anxiety, and insomnia

• Support for addiction recovery and detoxification

• Pain management (including headaches, joint pain, and back pain)

• Improved digestion and hormonal balance

• Enhanced emotional regulation and mental clarity

Auricular acupuncture is safe, minimally invasive, and can be effective even when traditional body acupuncture is not suitable. In some cases, your practitioner may use ear seeds or small press needles for continued stimulation between sessions.

This focused, gentle therapy supports whole-body healing through one of the body's most accessible and responsive reflex zones.
