The anatomy of the ear is a microsystem worth learning if you would like to be able to help yourself and your clients improve physical, emotional and mental health through the knowledgable application and placement of non invasive ear seeds.
There are more than 120 acupressure points in the ear. In this 4 hour course, you will be introducted to the theory as well as hands-on practice. Learn how the ear is formed during embryology physiology. This prenatal development explains why the ears have a very close relationship with the nervous system, internal organs and skeletal system of the body. Auricular (ear) acupuncture or acupressure on the ear can stimulate the meridians and benefit specific parts of the body.
Ear seeds can be applied to address a variety of health concerns, including: Stress, Anxiety, Pain and PTSD
What Are Ear Seeds?
Ear seeds are seeds placed on your ear to serve as tiny acupressure devices. They’re a type of auriculotherapy, a traditional Chinese medicine technique that focuses on areas in your ear. By affecting the nervous system, these points when activated can bring comfort and relaxation. People may use them to help with pain, insomnia, substance abuse, and mental issues ranging from anxiety to grief.
These seeds traditionally come from an herb called vaccaria but can also be made of ceramic or metal. They're placed on the outside of your ear over certain acupuncture points. They’re usually held in place by waterproof tape and stay on your ears for up to a week.
Ear seeds are safe for just about anyone, although it's always a good idea to tell your doctor about any alternative treatments you try. Some people use ear seeds along with acupuncture treatments. They may help the effects of acupuncture or massage last longer between sessions.
How Ear Seeds Work
After cleaning your ear with an alcohol swab, a practitioner places the seeds on the outside portion of your ear. It doesn’t hurt, but you may feel some tenderness or warmth.
Once they're in place, you self massage them two to three times a day. To do this, apply gentle pressure to the seeds and move them in small circles. Health Benefits of Ear Seeds
While they can't cure chronic pain or other conditions, ear seeds may be a helpful addition to your medical treatment. There aren't many studies of auriculotherapy. But it might help with:
- Substance abuse
- Pain, numbness, and tingling from chemotherapy
- Lower back pain
- Insomnia
- Weight loss
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Trauma
- Grief
- Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
