FAQ
FAQ About Auriculotherapy and Ear Seeding
What is Auriculotherapy and How Does it Work?
Auriculotherapy is a healthcare modality that involves the stimulation of specific points on the external surface of the ear (auricle) to alleviate imbalances such as pain, allergies, weight gain, PTSD, addiction, anxiety and other health conditions. Auriculotherapy uses the ear as a microsystem that reflects the entire body. This method is employed to address a broad range of conditions, as all organs and body parts are represented on the ear.
Stimulating these specific ear points sends signals through the nervous system to the brain, which then relays messages to the corresponding body parts. This stimulation can help to regulate bodily functions and promote homeostasis, potentially leading to therapeutic effects for various health conditions.
What are Ear Seeds?
Ear seeds are tiny seeds or pellets, often from the vaccaria plant, that are held in place on the surface of your ear with adhesive tape. Essentially, they provide a form of acupressure on the ear and because they're held in place they apply mild continuous pressure to specific auricular points for up to 5 days.
Ear seeds non-invasively stimulate nerve branches in the ear, sending messages through your nervous system to your brain and then to the corresponding body part. This communication can help to regulate bodily functions and promote homeostasis, potentially leading to therapeutic effects .
How Do You Become An Auricular Therapist?
Becoming an auricular therapist typically involves education and training in the theory and practice of auriculotherapy. The specifics can vary depending on your background, location, and the scope of practice you intend to pursue.
Anyone from any background can become professionally certified in ear seeding because it is a non-invasive technique. Our Ear Seeds Mastery Certification uses our innovative 3-part signature learning system to help people acquire auriculotherapy competency through a self, paced online program.
Many health professionals including nurses, massage therapists, acupuncturists, chiropractors, naturopaths, physical therapists, personal trainers, health coaches, social workers, counselors, reiki practitioners, addiction counselors, and trauma specialists become certified in ear seeding to help their clients with a hand-on modality.
To become certified in auricular acupuncture you must be a licensed acupuncturist, medical acupuncturist, or have needle insertion within your scope of practice within your licensure. Advanced training from the Auriculotherapy Certification Institute or other similar programs would be a good place to start.
Do You Need to Be Licensed to Practice Auriculotherapy with Ear Seeds?
No. Auriculotherapy with a non-invasive technique like ear seeds, or ear acupressure, is not regulated by a national certification board nor is it regulated at the state level in the United States. At this time there is no special licensing required to practice ear seeding in the United States. It is recommended that you do your due diligence to check your local regulations through a body such as the state DIVISION OF OCCUPATIONAL AND PROFESSIONAL LICENSES to see if there are any special requirements beyond getting your business license in your city and state.
