< Go Back EARS THE PATHWAY TO HEALTH? Posted: Sep 29, 2014 YOUR
EARS COULD BE YOUR PATHWAY TO HEALTH
The
benefits of treating the body via the ears can be quite surprising. We do not often think of them as means of
maintaining health, but as you will see the following can be helped due to the
energetic points found on the ear that relate to different parts of the body
and also are a trigger to release emotional problems as well.
The
following list, though not extensive is a good example of the benefits of
combining auricular reflexology, auricular vitaflex techniques, ear candling
and Young Living pure essential oils.

The
ears have been long seen as antennae for gathering energy in Chinese
medicine. If you are feeling fatigued,
often pulling on the rim of the ears away from the head will help to refresh
you.
In
Oriental Medicine the ears are also seen as having points which can be used to
trigger various organs, systems and also treat emotional problems. You have probably heard of people using
acupuncture to help overcome addictions, but there are also many other points
on the ears.
Some
people have even reported improved sight when having their ears pierced as the
lobe represents the head and the eye reflex can be found there.
For
years many ancient people have used candles to remove physical detritus from
the ear canal such as wax as well as warming and aiding circulation and opening
the canals and eustachian tube which connects via the throat to the ear and
carries infection between the two organs.
The throat also contains the tonsils and adenoids which are our first
line of defence between our environment and the internal body, so these can
also be helped as well as all the other lymph nodes found around the ear such
as the mastoid gland. The salivary
glands also can be helped.
The
ear also controls our balance via the labyrinth of canals that are found within
it. Candling has also be found to help
this and encourage any excess of tension, energy and fluids to balance. By releasing tension in the ear the neck muscles
can also release and as everything is connected the shoulders and muscles of
the scalp can also release helping headaches and stiffness.
Any
tightness will always act as a barrier and cause build up of wax, fluid and
tension leading to problems in this small orifice and the narrow tubes around
it.
Ear
candles are infused with herbs and essential oils to aid the healing properties
of heat.
Auricular
Vitaflex Technique employs the fingers to be placed in the ears to cause a
vacuum so that when they are manipulated in various directions the ear is able
to rebalance via the nerves, tubes and muscles and cilia found in them. Young Living Pure Therapeutic Grade Essential
Oils can also be used to aid the dislodging of any wax and energy blocks within
the area.
Young
Living oils can also be placed on the emotional trigger points of the ears to
help release stored trauma in the body's energy systems (meridians and
nadas/chakras).
When
treating a client I will always take a full consultation and then tailor the
appropriate treatments to suit their unique needs. This is because we are all different and have
various life experiences and reactions that are special to us as
individuals.
I
have had success with children's ear problems as well as adults in all the
problems mentioned. One child who had
had continues ear infections and operations was able to discharge a lot of
unpleasant matter and did not have any more recurrences. Diet can also be a problem as many common
foods cause a build up of mucus in the body and consequently cause blockages
and infections, so this also will be looked at if appropriate during an
auricular health session.
If
you wish to experience just a pure relaxation through the ears or would like to
work to aid the body's natural healing using these natural approaches which do
not contain any toxic chemicals and work with nature. Please contact me at www.sheilacrouch.com to
