Auriculotherapy/Ear Seeds

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, the ear is a micro system of the entire body. There are over 200 points on the ear that are believed to correspond to different points on the body, both physical and emotional. The stimulation of these points is called auriculotherapy.

Acupuncture Physicians will often stimulate those points with needles in a standard acupuncture session. Ear seeds are another tool used to stimulate those points. They are safe, natural and noninvasive, sitting on the surface of the ear and held in place with a patch of adhesive tape. The seeds traditionally come from the vaccaria plant. This purple flowering plant is known as Chinese medicine as a blood tonifier, promoting energy and overall health and well-being.
