[ASMR] Auricular (Ear) Acupuncture Treatment | Real Person ASMR 💜
TW: Blood - tiny droplets of blood are visible during this treatment, so if that is something you're sensitive to, please be advised!
Today, we're showing you a few different Auricular (ear) Acupuncture Protocols! This session is "unintentional" unintentional ASMR - we spend this session palpating Tom's ear with a tool that tells us which points are most tender (and therefore best for needling).
First - Tom was feeling a bit of Vertigo and Dizziness after having an illness last week, so we begin with some ear points to help alleviate that.
Second, we show you a protocol for Rhinitis/Allergies.
And Third, we show you the 5 most potent and commonly used Auricular points for Anxiety, Stress, Overwhelm and/or addiction.
As always, this video contains many imperfections! Each new video we create is a live look at mini lessons learned and progress made on our ASMR creation journey! We hope you enjoy and find some relaxation and tingles despite the imperfections! 🤍🙏🏻🤍
So we're going to do an auricular protocol for dizziness and vertigo, and we're dealing with
that today. So we are going to go over each point. We're going to palpate around for each point with
a little tool here, and this will kind of pinpoint the more tender area in the general
vicinity of where the points are, okay? So there are, let's see, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 points
that help to treat dizziness and vertigo. And so we're just going to go ahead and start with
your point called Irshin Men, which is otherwise known as NeuroGate.
Before I get started on the actual point locations,
it's important to know that the ear is probably the most powerful
set of acupuncture points in the entire body. Your ear is also known as the auricle,
that's why we call it auricular acupuncture, and it is an incredible microcosm of your entire body.
It reflects your endocrine system, your nervous system, and it innervates intimately with the
vagal nerves, which is why the ear is so powerful at treating disorders of the nervous system,
so anxiety, overwhelm, insomnia. But today we're going to explore the point system for
dizziness and vertigo, and then we're going to show the point protocol for anxiety.
I see the ear as a portal through which our tiny little needles are able to penetrate
and move your energy in exactly the direction it needs to go. So we're going to go ahead and start
with Earshen Men. Earshen Men is found at the upper outer edge of the triangular fossa here.
This little area here is called the triangular fossa, and it's sort of at this upper outer edge.
Is that tender tone? Not too bad? How about there? Okay. So even the tiniest little micro changes in
location make a difference, and typically when you palpate with that tool, the more tender point
will stay depressed a little bit longer. So we're going to go ahead and insert a needle into
the more tender of those two points. So the next point we're going to do is called lesser
occipital nerve, and this is kind of at the outer edge of the helix here, and it's sort of just
above and across from Earshen Men. Is that tender? Okay. We're going to go ahead and needle that one.
The next point is called kidney, and this is down below Earshen Men,
sort of underneath this trigus here. Tender there? Okay. So that one will be pointing down.
The next one is liver, and so this liver point is sort of back from point zero. Point zero is
right here. Is that tender? So we'll needle point zero first. Point zero is located sort of in the
very center of the ear, and so then going sort of back out from there is liver, but tender. Okay.
How are those feelings? Comfortable? And the next point we're going to do is the inner ear point,
and this is sort of on the front area of the ear right here, so we're going to palpate around for
that. One is right around here. Tender? Okay. Next we are going to do the lesser occipital nerve,
which is sort of out and up. Tender there? Okay. You can see the depression is still there,
and then next we are going to do the master sensorial point, followed by the inner ear.
So the master sensorial point is sort of in the center of the earlobe.
Tender there? And then the inner ear point should be...
Got it. Next we're going to do point zero, which is kind of in the center of the ear here.
Tender there? Okay. Next we're going to do liver, which will be right around here. Is that tender?
How about that? How about that? Okay. We found our point. Okay, so next we're going to do the
dizziness point, which is sort of underneath this area. Tender there? Okay. You can see it.
It's almost easier to do freehand on this one. Next we're going to do kidney.
Should be under here. Is that tender?
Okay. Let me just sort of manipulate the needles a little bit. Then I'm going to do one more point
at the cerebellum point. It's right at the base of this inner helix here.
Doing a great job. Thanks. So we're going to let these sit for a moment and we're going to
pull them out and then we're going to do a protocol for rhinitis and allergic rhinitis.
Are these feeling okay though? These have sat for 20 minutes, so we are going to pull.
There's a lot of capillaries in the ears, so it's common for points to bleed a little. In fact,
I always celebrate when a point bleeds a bit because it's a release of energy.
Helps to remove stagnation if there's blood stagnation in the tissues,
which when we have black sinuses, of course there are. So we're just going to clean it off
with some alcohol. So next we are going to do a protocol for rhinitis and allergic rhinitis.
For this, I'm going to use my little acuclip.
So for this, we have the apex of the ear, which is always just at the tippy tippy top of the
ear. Is that tender? And then we have a point right directly underneath it called the allergy
yes okay so we will go ahead and need all those so we'll do the one that goes underneath first
and then we'll do the apex of the ear which is next we are going to do the nose points
so we are going to do the inner nose which is actually a point that is underneath here
that tender
okay so we've got that one when you see a square on the page that means it's underneath the outer
portion so next we have the lung points so of course we have the lung situated underneath
this middle part of the ear and the there's lung one and lung two so i'm going to palpate around
for a long one that's tender that's tender
okay one and two the ear is sort of like a map of the body so the head
and shoulders are sort of in this area so the nose and all of that is in this area
and then we have the spine of the body so this is sort of like the mid back area
the lower back area and we have like the hips and knees and everything like that so i always
envision an upside down fetus where the head is here and the you know lower back butt is here
and the internal organs are all on the inside so we have some similar points for most protocols
and the main point for most protocols is shin men so shin men is at the upper outer edge of
that triangular process tender there okay so we'll needle that one again for this protocol
and then we have point zero again which is again kind of at the midpoint of the ear
in this general area so tender okay there we go have the forehead point which is sort of
in this general vicinity tender and we have the external nose that we did not do before
that point is right around here that tender
that one you okay okay so then we'll let this
set cool for a minute and then we'll come back and we'll do the anxiety protocol i'm going to do
pretty much the five most common points that are used for not only anxiety and depression
but also um insomnia as well as addictions so the first point we've gone over a few times but
we're just going to go over it again because it is the best point you can use for anxiety
it's shin men it's on the upper outer edge of the triangular fossa so we will go ahead and
needle that and so then the next point is the point zero point which is what we went over
before as well sort of right in the center of the ear sort of in the middle of this you know
center branch is that tender okay you only want to needle points that are tender that's sort of
what we call an ashi point ashi meaning ouchy and when there's a tenderness in a spot that
just means our body is asking for our attention so then the next point we're going to do is the
sympathetic anatomic point which is sort of right on the inner aspect is that tender
yeah yes yeah okay so this one you find sort of just by going into the inside of the ear
that we are going to do the thalamus point which is right underneath here
okay and the last one we'll do is the master cerebral which is right on the
lobe in this general vicinity oh tender okay this point is great for all psychosomatic issues
whether it's anxiety depression um insomnia you'll see here we have an insomnia protocol
right above it where we have a lot of the same points shenmen point zero thalamus
master cerebral tender there that's the insomnia point so i'm not surprised it's
not tender because you know i think we will stick with just the great job out of you today
i'll see you next time
