Auriculotherapy Course

Course overview

The use of points upon the ear – auriculotherapy – forms a complete system of treatment which has the huge advantage of only requiring the exposure and treatment of the ear. This course was specially commissioned by the BSY to complement our Acupressure course. It is also an excellent standalone course which would be of value to all natural therapists.
