Auriculotherapy is the practice of stimulating the external parts of the ear in order to aide in alleviating unusual symptoms occurring in the body. Many people have commented that this technique sounds similar to Chinese Acupuncture, however Auriculotherapy is quite different.
The science behind Auriculotherapy was primarily developed in France. One major benefit to Auriculotherapy is the ability to interrupt and even stop addictive behaviors. In our office, Auriculotherapy is most commonly used to help our patients stop smoking and assist in appetite suppression with those who are emotional eaters and wish to loose weight. This technique is also highly effective in pain control and restoring the normal function of the body.
Please contact our office for more information on Auriculotherapy and how it may be helpful in restoring your body back to health.
