For some, piercings are a form of self-expression or a way to accessorize! For others, piercings can be used as a form of acupuncture. Auriculo-therapy is a type of acupuncture that recognizes the ear as a micro-system for the entire body. When stimulating specific Acupoints on the external ear, there is said to be corresponding health benefits. Here are 5 types of piercing and their potential respective benefits. Every body is different and those that may work for some may not work for others!

    I have both of my daiths pierced about 2 years ago, and I have not had an ocular migraine since (was having one about every 3 months). I was having a migraine every 3-4 weeks, now every 3-4 months. It doesn’t work for everyone, but I know a few other people who it also helped. I didn’t notice a difference with my tragus.
