The principle behind auricular acupuncture is similar to reflexology in that the ear is a microcosm of the entire body. Auricular is mostly recognized for assisting in addiction recovery plans, but truly has an ability to help with a lot more. I applied points to the stomach area to help with severe nausea during my second childbirth. Patients with pain, sleep disorders, or weight loss plans often ask for the seeds and are surprised by the positive response they have. By locating tender points in a specific area within the ear and attaching seeds or tacks into that point the patient can apply their own acupressure when relief is needed. Try it for yourself. You'll be amazed.
I am reading your blog for the first time and I must say your approach is different. What sets bloggers apart is how they connect to their readers; you really connected with me. Great post!
