Auriculotherapy Developed by the French neurologist Dr. Paul Nogier in the 1950’s. He came to the conclusion that disturbances of the body could be demonstrated by means of sensitive or painful points on the auricle. He interpreted the representations of the body on the auricle as the image of an inverted fetus. Auriculo-points are only 2 mm in area and the histological analyses do not show any difference in their structure. In healthy person these points are latent and are revealed only if pathological process appears in the organism. In acute conditions the corresponding points become painful if pressed. With the disappearance of the problem the point becomes inactive, latent again. In case of chronic problems on the place of the correspondence point certain changes of the skin may be found – redness, rush or pigmentation.

Reflexology – Hands, Feet, and Ears

Reflexology is a lot like acupressure and acupuncture, but instead of using the points along the body’s meridians, it is used through the feet, hands, and the ears. It provides a lot of relaxation and promotes energy flow throughout the body since each point on the feet/hands/ears corresponds to a point in the body. All you have to do is apply gentle pressure to a point.
