Auricular Acupuncture
Introduction Treatment using auricular points were recorded as early as 500-300 Bc, in the NeiJimg.
Disease of various parts of the body can be cured by needling the coresponding ear points, which promote Qi and blood in the channels and collaterals and adjust the Zang Fu organs.
