You can literally ... Switch Off Pain with Your Fingertips. If you have a headache ... or back pain ... or pain caused by arthritis or sciatica or any other kind of pain. All you'd have to do is apply pressure on a specific point on your outer ear (called the Pain Control Point). Once you do this, the outer ear sends messages to the brain.The brain then transmits "orders" to the body toflood the system with pain-killing biochemicalssuch as endorphins and enkephalins. The moment high levels of these biochemicals are introduced in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid, the body kills pain spontaneously -- without the use of drug-based painkillers. Pain is gone ... almost instantly. Endorphins and encephalin have an analgesic effect, and are known to be just as effective as morphine in stopping pain.

You can successfully use auriculotherapy to treat health problems that have plagued you, your friends or your loved ones for years. Imagine having a smoking habit that you want to get rid of. If you apply pressure on a specific point on your outer ear (called the Nicotine Point) with your fingers, it "tricks" the body into thinking it is still receiving nicotine when it actually is not. That's because the stimulation induces the production of endorphins. The endorphins lock in to the specific neuroreceptors that nicotine binds to ... thereby causing the body to think it's ingesting nicotine. There are usually no withdrawal symptoms when auriculotherapy is used for smoking cessation. Once the body loses exposure to nicotine, it slowly loses its addictive neurological pathway, and thus, the body loses its craving for it. Pain control and smoking cessation are just 2 of the many medical miracles that auriculotherapy has been shown to cause. There is virtually no condition that can't be improved with auriculotherapy. Auriculotherapy is based on age-old Oriental medical techniques. One of the core principles of this healing technology is that the outer portion of the ear (the auricle) is a mirror image of an inverted human fetus - i.e., the ear is a microcosmic representation of the entire body. In other words, every point of the outer ear corresponds to, and is associated with, a specific part of the human anatomy. That means every part of your body can be accessed through points on your outer ear. Auriculotherapy is based on nerve connection (in the human nervous system) which allows for localized treatment for the organs or systems involved in the health problem. Instead of working directly on a particular symptom, such as massaging a sore back, stimulating particular points on the outer ear sends messages to the brain. The brain then transmits "order" to the body to accomplish healing and balancing activities. ITS LIKE Unlocking the Body's Own "Pharmacy" By doing the treatment yourself, you can keep it simple and still get the results you're looking for. You'll just use your fingers to apply pressure. For points that are hard to reach, you can use a blunt-tipped instrument or even the end of a match stick. Auriculotherapy is so safe and easy, you can do-it-yourself at home. WHAT IF I DO IT WRONG?: Stimulating the auriculotherapy points on your ears is not difficult. If you're using your fingers, you may put pressure on a wider area than the point itself. In fact, you might touch more than one point at the same time. And that's okay. You can't hurt yourself by stimulating other points. In fact, you can benefit any part of the body connected to the points you touch, even accidentally. go to top
