Auricular (ear acupuncture)
Auricular (ear acupuncture) is an effective and popular form of acupuncture. Auricular acupuncture is a type of acupuncture that involves stimulating these specific points on the ear in order to treat a wide range of health conditions. Auricular acupuncture is most commonly used to treat pain, but it can also be effective in treating other conditions such as anxiety, stress, insomnia, and addiction. In addition, auricular acupuncture is often used as a preventative measure to boost overall health and well-being.
How it works
Auricular acupuncture is a form of acupuncture that targets the ear. It is based the ear as a microsystem that reflects the entire body, with specific points on the ear that correspond to different parts of the body. It works by stimulating the release of endorphins, which are the body’s natural pain-relieving chemicals and serotonin, a neurotransmitter that plays a role in mood and anxiety.
