Ear Acupuncture & Ear Seeds
Rebalance & Reset with Auricular Therapy
Auricular therapy is a gentle, targeted treatment that works with specific points on the ear — similar to how reflexology works on the feet — with each point linked to a different part of the body. By stimulating these points with fine needles or tiny ear seeds, this therapy helps to rebalance the nervous system and support the body’s natural healing processes.
Ideal for relieving stress, calming the mind, reducing pain, and supporting emotional and physical wellbeing — without the need for full-body treatment.
Auricular therapy offers two distinct ways to stimulate the ear’s healing points — either through precise, ultra-fine needles or gentle, continuous pressure using ear seeds. Both methods work to gently restore balance within the body, supporting emotional wellbeing and physical health by encouraging the body’s natural healing processes.
Key benefits:
Ear Acupuncture
A powerful practice rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that uses ultra-fine needles to stimulate specific points on the ear. This treatment helps bring the body’s systems back into balance, supporting both emotional wellbeing and physical health. It can ease a wide range of symptoms without the need for full-body acupuncture.
Ideal as a one-off treatment for targeted relief or as part of a personalised treatment plan for ongoing support.
Initial consultation & first treatment – 90 minutes | £55
Follow-up treatment – 60 minutes | £45
Block of 5 follow-up treatments | £222
Restorative Reiki Integration
For those seeking a deeper, more holistic approach, I can use Restorative Reiki to enhance your session. This gentle energy-balancing technique promotes relaxation, reduces stress, and supports overall well-being. When combined with ear acupuncture, Restorative Reiki can amplify the therapeutic effects, helping you achieve a deeper sense of calm and balance.
Offered FREE of charge as part of your ear acupuncture treatment.
Ear Seeds
A gentle, needle-free method using tiny seeds placed on specific points of the ear. These provide continuous, gentle stimulation to help bring the body’s systems back into balance, supporting emotional wellbeing and physical health. You’ll be guided on how to gently stimulate the seeds yourself to maximise the benefits.
Ideal as a single treatment or part of an ongoing personalised treatment plan.
Initial session – 30 minutes | £20
Follow-up sessions – 15 minutes | £15
Monthly package (4 sessions) | £45

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
Before your session, I’ll ask you to complete a short online health questionnaire. At the start of your treatment, we’ll go through your answers and discuss what you’re hoping to get from the session, so it can be tailored to your needs.
You’ll get comfortable on my reclining treatment couch while ultra-fine needles or ear seeds are placed on specific points of your ear. If we’re using ear acupuncture, the needles stay in place for around 20–30 minutes while you rest, relax, and listen to soothing music. If you’ve chosen ear seeds, I’ll show you how to gently press them at home so you can continue to support the points over the next few days.
If you’ve chosen to integrate Restorative Reiki into your ear acupuncture session, I’ll move quietly around your body using light touch or hands held just above the body to support energy flow and deepen your sense of calm.
The treatment is gentle and calming, and many people feel a deep sense of relaxation or emotional release during or after their session.
Most people find it very comfortable. You might feel a brief pressure or tingling, but the experience is generally calming.
Side effects are rare and usually mild. You may notice a gentle tenderness in your ears. Some people also experience a brief shift in mood or emotions as your body integrates the treatment.
Comfortable clothing that gives easy access to your ears and neck. It’s also a good idea to
perhaps wear layers as you may cool down during your treatment.
I am unable to treat people with bleeding disorders or who are taking anticoagulant medication, during the first trimester of pregnancy, or if there are wounds, infections, or broken skin on the ear.
For general wellbeing and maintenance, I usually recommend a session once a month. If we are working on specific issues, a few sessions closer together can be more effective, followed by maintenance treatments. Substantial savings can be made by booking a block of five sessions, which can be used flexibly for either targeted support or ongoing maintenance.
Auricular therapy supports a wide range of emotional and physical issues including stress, anxiety, sleep problems, chronic pain and musculoskeletal problems, hormonal imbalance, migraines, digestive discomfort, allergies and auto-immune problems, weight management, smoking cessation, and more.
Ear seeds gently stimulate points over a few days. You’ll be shown how to press them at
home to enhance their effect.
Absolutely. Treatments can be adapted for your comfort, and the space is fully wheelchair
accessible.
