There are more that 50 acupuncture points in the ear that correlate to different parts of the body. For example, there is a specific point for the lumbar spine, for the eyes, for the stomach. In Traditional Chinese Medicine the ears are a micro-system of the entire body, similar to reflexology.

 An interesting note to make is that the ear is where our largest cranial nerve, the Vegas nerve ( cranial nerve # 10) becomes most superficial on the entire body.  A couple of acupuncture needles in each ear can provide a patient with a deep sense of relaxation and balance. Needles are generally retained for about 30 minutes. Complete relaxation…..
