What is auricular acupuncture and does it work?

What is auricular acupuncture?

Auricular (ear) acupuncture is a gentle treatment used in both modern auricular acupuncture, developed in France, and Traditional Chinese Medicine. The ear contains over 200 recognised acupuncture points, with each point corresponding to different areas and functions of the body.

By placing fine needles at carefully selected points on the ear, auricular acupuncture aims to stimulate the body’s natural healing response and encourage balance.

What can auricular acupuncture help support?

Ear acupuncture is commonly used as part of a personalised treatment plan to support a wide range of health concerns, including:


– Migraines and headaches
– Musculoskeletal pain and inflammation
– Stress and anxiety
– Digestive issues
– Allergies, including hay fever
– Tinnitus
– Perimenopause and menopause
– Fibromyalgia
– Stroke rehabilitation support
– ADHD
– Smoking cessation and other addictions


If your concern isn’t listed, we’ll discuss your symptoms during your consultation and tailor your treatment accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What to expect from your session

Your first appointment begins with a full consultation, where we’ll discuss your health concerns, any contraindications and create a treatment plan tailored specifically to you.

During treatment:

  • You’ll remain fully clothed.
  • Treatment is usually carried out in a seated position, although you can lie on the treatment couch if you prefer.
  • Five or six fine needles are placed into one ear.
  • You may feel a slight sting as the needles are inserted, followed by a warm or relaxing sensation.

Sessions typically last 20–45 minutes.

All needles are sterile, single-use and safely disposed of after every treatment. At the end of your appointment, you’ll receive personalised aftercare advice both verbally and by email.

How many sessions will I need?

Ear acupuncture can be enjoyed as a one-off treatment, particularly for relaxation and wellbeing.

For ongoing support with specific health concerns, we typically recommend a course of six weekly sessions, allowing treatment to build progressively over time.

At the end of your appointment, you’ll receive personalised aftercare advice both verbally and by email.

I was recommended to visit Marianne after suffering from back pain for years. After a few sessions of kore therapy I felt like a new person.
