What Are Ear Seeds?

Discover how targeted ear points work in harmony with your body.

Used for centuries in Traditional Chinese Medicine, acupressure ear seeds apply gentle, steady pressure to specific points on the ear that correspond to different regions of the body. These points belong to the auricular microsystem, recognized by the World Health Organization, where the ear is viewed as a map connected to systemic, and reflex pathways.

When these points are stimulated, they send signals that can help support overall balance and regulation, contributing to a sense of calm, deeper rest, improved focus, and eased tension.

Once applied, ear seeds offer consistent, passive stimulation for up to five days—no appointments, no needles. Just quiet, continuous activation of the points you choose.
