Earseeds

What is auriculotherapy with Earseeds? Holistic treatment for over 150 conditions.

The ear is covered in a powerful network of nerve endings, creating a micro system of the body.  When specific combinations of points are stimulated, they have been shown to have a balancing or therapeutic effect. Because of the connection to the nervous system, even old injuries or conditions can often see improvement with earseeds.

What are Earseeds? 

Earseeds are a natural, non-invasive tool used to stimulate auricular points. The tiny seeds may be seeds from the vaccaria plant or metal beads of stainless steel, silver, or gold affixed to the ear with adhesive medical tape.  These seeds provide constant light pressure to the auricular points. 

Does it hurt? Are Earseeds painful?

Some people do experience temporary localized pain or tenderness on their ear.  The auricular points that correspond to the part of the body that is out of balance, has a health condition, or has an injury will often be sensitive to touch.  Once that part of the body starts to feel better, the discomfort on the ear from the earseeds does subside.

How long do Earseeds stay in place?

We have found that earseeds will stay in place for 4-7 days even with showering and normal activity.  Earseeds are removed after 1 week and new earseeds are applied 12-24 hours later.

What should I expect during my first auriculotherapy appointment?

You will be asked to fill out an online form outlining your overall health. Your ears will be examined and evaluated.

I will clean your ears with an alcohol wipe and use tweezers and a probe to apply the seeds to the indicated points for your condition. I will explain the process step by step and answer any questions.

After your earseeds are placed, you will be shown how to stimulate the points by gently pressing the points a few times each day.

When can I expect to see results?

Relief or improvement is often noticed within minutes of stimulating the auricular points with earseeds.  Sometimes conditions improve within a few day to a week.  It is recommended with most conditions to use earseeds for about 4 to 8 weeks with weekly follow up and application of fresh earseeds.  

Can I treat more than one condition at a time?

In most cases only one condition will be treated at a time.   However, because of the connections within the human body, occasionally earseeds will bring benefit and balance to more than one condition at a time.
