Auriculotherapy

Auriculotherapy is a specialized form of acupuncture that focuses on the ear, a microsystem that reflects the entire body.

By stimulating specific points on the ear with fine needles or magnetic balls, or vaccaria seeds, this treatment helps regulate the nervous system, relieve pain, and restore energetic balance.

Auricular Acupuncture is often used to support stress reduction, anxiety, sleep issues, pain management, addiction recovery, and hormonal balance.

This modality is offered on its own in a shortened session, or as part of a full-body acupuncture session.

Annette began practicing auriculotherapy in 2009, first learning the NADA protocol, a gentle five-point ear acupuncture treatment that supports detoxification, stress relief and emotional balance. Since then, she has integrated auriculotherapy into individual and group sessions for people of all ages, for all kinds of conditions. She also trains other practitioners in providing this protocol, and continues to offer group treatments and trainings in this approach, when invited.
