Auriculotherapy: The Treatment

In our office, we offer the latest advancements in Auriculotherapy technique and equipment.

As a national instructor, Dr. Clare keeps close contact with the leading researchers in the Auriculotherapy field.

Such contact enables us to provide the most effective treatment strategy in the region. Our treatment is non-invasive, pain-free, and has no known side effects. Though Auriculotherapy has strong ties to acupuncture, it is not necessary to stimulate the points with needles. Instead, we use a probe to apply microcurrent and/or cold healing laser light stimulations to areas on the surface of the ear that are associated with addiction to nicotine.

The treatment is quite comfortable and is about 20 minutes in duration with additional time given for counseling. Post treatment will include professional-grade neutraceuticals and supplements to aid the body in its transition away from nicotine. Most patients are able to stop smoking after the first treatment. In a few individuals, a second treatment may be needed; these costs are included in the initial fee.

Prior to your first visit, we ask that you drink plenty of water the day before and the day of treatment. We also ask that you refrain from smoking for three hours prior to treatment.
