Many practitioners include auricular acupuncture in their practices without knowing the full potential of auricular medicine. The ear is a window to the brain that allows us to "see" and treat the brain directly, effectively and safely. This book presents the significance of the discoveries of auricular medicine; the profound implications of the use of the Vascular Autonomic Signal, the "third pulse", for diagnosis and treatment; tools and methods of application; case reports and research; as well as useful charts and maps. Intended as a companion text for auricular practitioners, this book will also be of interest to those searching for safe, alternative treatments for therapy resistant conditions such as chronic pain and hormonal imbalances.
