30min outer Ear reflexology

Service Description

This is a stand alone outer ear reflexology (auriculartherapy) session. Kindly arrive with clean ears, any long hair tied back and any earrings removed. The session starts with a short chat to discuss your current state of health and includes a relaxing outer ear massage (very gentle tugging, rolling and twisting), and requires no cream. The outer ear massage is performed on the massage table and you are kindly requested to remove your shoes for comfort and hygiene reasons. A metallic probe with a round tip is then used to detect sensitivity in the various reflex points of the outer ear. And if needed, an electro-point finder (painless!) may be used to further sedate or stimulate reflex points found to need balancing (as per health chat or findings). You may also require the application of an "ear seed" - a tiny ball on a tiny piece of surgical sticky tape which is placed on the area and is usually kept on for a few days. The "ear seed" is then pressed by you (your homework!) a few times per day for a few seconds - this prolongs the treatment. In my experience ear reflexology, including vagus nerve work, has been a very useful additional tool to help with musculoskeletal issues (jaw, hip, knee, shoulder, neck, spine etc..), pain, stress, digestion, and relaxation.
