PSA: Oil of Oregano is NOT the same as Oregano Essential Oil. They are created differently and potency reflects that. I know many who feel comfortable utilizing essential oils internally, but the risks are greater for a reaction because of the potency. Oil of oregano however is an infused oil that can be taken internally by capsule, adding to food, or dosing by teaspoons.
Wanted to share because this had come up many times in the last few years. I would recommend working with a practitioner before taking any herbal remedy. There is a misnomer that all things “natural” are SAFE and that is simply untrue!!!

Auricular therapy (also called ear acupuncture or auriculotherapy) is a form of treatment based on the idea that the ear is a microsystem of the entire body. Practitioners stimulate specific points on the outer ear to influence corresponding organs, systems, or body parts.
From a biomedical perspective, stimulation of ear points is thought to:
* Activate cranial nerves (especially the vagus nerve)
* Influence the central nervous system
* Trigger endorphin release
* Modulate pain pathways

What It’s Commonly Used For?
Research varies in strength, but auricular therapy is often used for:
1. Pain Management
* Back pain
* Migraines
* Arthritis
* Post-surgical pain
It may help by reducing pain signals and increasing natural pain-relieving chemicals.
2. Stress & Anxiety
* Promotes relaxation
* May regulate autonomic nervous system balance
* Sometimes used in trauma settings (e.g., NADA protocol)
3. Addiction & Cravings
* Smoking cessation
* Alcohol or substance recovery support It’s often used as a complementary therapy in detox programs.
4. Insomnia
* Helps calm nervous system
* May improve sleep onset
5. Weight Management
* Sometimes used to reduce appetite or emotional eating (evidence is mixed)
Potential Benefits
* Non-invasive and generally low-risk
* Can be used alongside conventional treatment
* May provide quick calming effects
* Often well tolerated

Who Might Consider It?
Auricular therapy may be helpful if someone:
* Prefers non-drug pain management
* Wants support for stress regulation
* Is having trouble sleeping
* Is looking for complementary therapy, not a replacement for medical care
