Auriculotherapy for Pain Relief, Stress Support, and Balance at Castle Rock Wellness

At Castle Rock Wellness, we offer auriculotherapy, a gentle therapy that stimulates precise points on the outer ear. This method can be used to help diagnose and treat pain, regulate body functions, and ease conditions that affect other parts of the body.

The discovery of this therapy is partially based on the ancient Chinese medicine practice of body acupuncture, yet it is also derived from the discoveries by a French physician in the 1950s. Dr. Paul Nogier and colleagues demonstrated that specific areas of the external ear were associated with pathology in specific parts of the body.

How Long Do the Benefits Last?

The range of responses to an auriculotherapy session are quite varied, but it is common that a patient suffering from severe pain will notice mild to marked reduction of their complaint on the very first session. This reduction in their pain experience can actually improve for the next several hours after treatment, but the benefits often begin to subside several days after the first treatment.

With each successive treatment, the degree of pain relief usually becomes more and more prominent and the duration of pain relief progressively extends from several days to several weeks. With smoking cessation and drug detoxification, the benefits of auriculotherapy can last several weeks after just one or two auricular treatments

A modern extension of acupuncture designed to support pain relief, relaxation, and whole-body balance.

How Many Treatment Sessions Are Needed to Help Patients?

There is no set number of treatments for any health condition treated by auriculotherapy, but it is common that the severity of most conditions are moderately reduced by four to six sessions and greatly alleviated by eight to twelve sessions.

Is Auriculotherapy Painful?

Auriculotherapy is generally very comfortable. Electro-stimulation is usually the method used and feels like a very mild electrical sensation.

How Quickly Can I Expect Relief?

Auriculotherapy often produces very rapid effects. Some treatments take effect immediately, while others are cumulative in nature, become increasingly effective with more treatments.
