The present work was developed to contribute to the knowledge and improvement of ear acupuncture treatment. It was prepared for clinicians, researchers and other individuals interested in Chinese Medicine as part of the constant search for therapeutic practices that can help patients. In addition, the present work can help increase knowledge on a technique that many therapists use routinely on their patients without an in-depth understanding of its mechanisms of action.
