Auricular Therapy & Ear Seeding in Maple Ridge
Looking for a gentle, non-invasive approach to wellness from a Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective? Ear seeding, also known as auricular therapy, is a simple yet effective treatment that involves placing small seeds on specific acupressure points on the ear to support the body’s natural balance and healing response.
Unlike traditional acupuncture, ear seeding does not use needles. Small seeds are secured to the ear using medical adhesive and can typically remain in place for 3–5 days, even during normal daily activities such as sleeping and showering.
Ear seeding may help support individuals experiencing:
• Stress
• Anxiety
• Sleep difficulties and insomnia
• Hormonal imbalance
• Headaches and migraines
• Digestive concerns
• Emotional wellness support
• Pain management
• Cravings and habit support
• General wellness and relaxation
During your visit, your practitioner will assess your individual concerns and place ear seeds on carefully selected points tailored to your needs.
Ear seeding treatments are available with our acupuncturists:
Todd Hsueh, R.Ac
Ken Dong, R.Ac
Whether used on its own or alongside acupuncture treatments, ear seeding offers a convenient and gentle option for ongoing support between appointments.
