MEET QÌ SEEDS
Ear Seeds, also known as auricular seeds, have a long history in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). They are a small seeds, or in our case a 24K Gold-Plated metal ball, which is placed on specific points on the ear to stimulate acupressure points. This practice is based on principles of TCM, which views the ear as being the microsystem which reflects the entire body.
The use of ear seeds dates back thousands of years in TCM where they were initially used to treat various ailments and promote overall health. The precise origins of ear seeds in TCM are unclear, however, they are believed to have been developed alongside other acupuncture techniques. Today ear seeds are used for a variety of purposes including pain relief, stress, smoking cessation, weight loss and emotional well-being.
The practice involves applying small 'seeds' which are attached to a clear adhesive onto the outer ear. The pressure from the 'seed' stimulates the corresponding acupressure point, which is believed to promote healing in whichever part of the body the acupressure point targets.
MORE ON QÌ
The concept of 'Qì' in Chinese culture dates back thousands of years. It is the vital energy or life force which flows through all living beings and the universe. Qì is central to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), martial arts, Feng Shui and philosophy. It is believed to govern health, vitality and spiritual well-being. Qì is often described metaphorically as breath, vital energy or even cosmic energy.
When Qì is in balance, it results in overall well-being and harmony within the body, mind and spirit. In Chinese medicine this means that energy flows smoothly throughout the body's meridians, supporting various bodily functions and organs. When your Qì is in balance you may experience physical vitality, mental clarity, emotional stability and strong immune system. Acupressure therapy, such as using Qì Seeds helps to restore and maintain that balance.
