What is Auricular therapy and how does it work?

Auricular therapy is a technique utilising manual stimulation of the auricle (i.e. the outermost part of the ear) to assist in the treatment of various conditions. Specific reflex points on the ear are known to help regulate the physiological functioning of the body’s internal organs and musculoskeletal structures. Stimulation of these reflex points can be achieved by manual pressure (referred to as Auricular Acupressure/Ear Reflexology) and/or the use of magnets/magnetic pellets. Auricular therapy helps relieve pain and congestion in the body; it aids detoxification and assists in the restoration of balance to the body’s normal, functioning processes.

What conditions can Auricular therapy help treat?

Auricular therapy helps relieve pain and congestion in the body. It can assist in the treatment of headaches, migraines, chronic back/neck pain, sciatica, asthma, high blood pressure, insomnia, fatigue, depression and anxiety. Auricular therapy is of great value in the treatment of nicotine and drug addiction. It is also beneficial in the treatment of hormonal and digestive disorders.
