What is Auricular Acupuncture?
Auricular therapy, or ear acupuncture, originated in China over 2,000 years ago. It is considered a microsystem, with ear points corresponding to the entire body through the Macro-Acupuncture meridian channels. The ear reflects the body in the form of an upside-down fetus, mapping out connections to different body systems.
Over time, European physicians and researchers made additional discoveries, expanding auricular therapy’s knowledge base. Auricular stimulation, deeply rooted in both European and Western medicine, became available in the U.S. in the early 1970s. Dr. Paul Nogier, the system’s founder, published his extensive work on ear acupuncture in 1957 after observing ear points with either reduced electrical resistance or high conductivity. Today, a leading system in Europe is associated with Dr. Bahr of the German Academy and Paul Nogier. Marina Doktorman had the unique opportunity to study directly under Dr. Bahr at a conference in Vancouver, Canada, as well as with Dr. Ralph Nogier, MD (France) in Maryland, USA.
Auricular Acupuncture: A Natural Approach to Healing Through Ear Stimulation
Auricular stimulation on the ear’s skin, which is connected to the central nervous system (CNS), has been shown to increase blood serum levels of endogenous neurotransmitters, endorphins, and enkephalins. These substances are naturally produced in the brain and are linked to opiate receptors. Endorphins, in particular, play a scientifically proven role in the pain-relieving effects of acupuncture.
Paul Nogier (1983) explored the neurophysiological foundation of auriculotherapy and suggested that the nervous system’s innervation of the external ear corresponds to the three primary tissue types in the developing embryo. He theorized that the distribution of the three cranial nerves, which supply different regions of the ear, is connected to their embryological origins—the ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. Most health issues, according to Nogier, stem from disturbances in these three functional layers:
- Endodermal tissue: The endoderm forms the gastrointestinal tract, respiratory system, and abdominal organs like the liver, pancreas, bladder, and urethra. It also contributes to the development of parts of the endocrine system, including the thyroid, parathyroid, and thymus glands. In auriculotherapy, this deep embryological tissue is represented in the concha, the central valley of the ear. Stimulating this area influences metabolic functions and addresses disorders of internal organs that stem from the endoderm.
- Mesodermal tissue: The mesoderm develops into skeletal muscles, cardiac muscles, smooth muscles, connective tissue, joints, bones, and blood cells produced by bone marrow. It also forms the circulatory and lymphatic systems, adrenal cortex, and urogenital organs. The proper functioning of this middle layer is essential for mobilizing the body’s defense mechanisms.
- Ectodermal tissue: The ectoderm gives rise to the outer skin, cornea, eye lens, nasal epithelium, teeth, peripheral nerves, spinal cord, brain, and endocrine glands such as the pituitary, pineal, and adrenal medulla. This tissue is represented on the earlobe and helix tail. It integrates instinctive information with learned experiences, reflecting its role in connecting external stimuli with the body’s internal responses.
Features of Ear Acupuncture at Pulse Acupuncture in Clifton, NJ
At Pulse Acupuncture, alongside treatments like electroacupuncture in Clifton auricular acupuncture is performed as part of a diagnostic method that finds disharmonies through ear examination. The ear is observed for any discolorations that would indicate internal organ pathology. The ear is also palpated to determine heightened tenderness. Sensory nerve sensation is represented on the anterior surface of the ear. Motor nerve muscle tension is represented on the posterior surface of the ear. A dermal point locator, the PointSelect Pro, is utilized to determine electrical skin resistance. Dr. Bahr developed frequencies of stimulation and detection of points.
The Benefits of Auriculotherapy
Auriculotherapy offers a wide range of benefits, including:
- Decreasing inflammation
- Supporting weight loss and appetite control
- Aiding in addiction cessation
- Assisting with smoking cessation
- Addressing infertility
- Alleviating anxiety and depression
- Promoting better sleep and combating insomnia
- Reducing muscle spasms
- Enhancing thermoregulation
- Restoring the sleep-wake cycle
- Balancing blood pressure
- Regulating respiration
- Relieving seasonal allergies
- Improving sexual function
- Controlling excessive sweating
What are Potential Side Effects of Auriculotherapy?
Side effects of ear acupuncture:
- Pain or discomfort: Some individuals may experience mild to moderate discomfort at the insertion site, though this typically subsides quickly.
- Bleeding, bruising, or infection: As with any acupuncture treatment, there is a small risk of bleeding, bruising, or infection at the insertion points. However, auricular acupuncture needles are usually sterile, and proper precautions are taken to minimize the risk of infection.
- Dizziness or fainting: Lightheadedness, dizziness, or fainting may occur during or after treatment, particularly in people prone to these symptoms or those with low blood pressure.

Working with Dr. Marina has been a game-changer for my health. I originally came to her seeking support for type 2 diabetes, chronic headaches, back pain, and rotator cuff discomfort — and I’m truly amazed at the progress I’ve made.
Dr. Marina takes the time to listen deeply and tailors each acupuncture session to what my body needs most. Not only have my blood sugar levels improved, but my headaches are far less frequent, and both my back and shoulder pain have significantly decreased.

Dear Dr.Marina Doktorman,
I hope this message finds you well! I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for the incredible impact your acupuncture sessions have had on my life. Your expertise and care have helped me find relief and healing in ways I never thought possible.
When I first sought acupuncture, I was struggling with a combination of issues that affected my overall well-being. Chronic back pain was causing constant discomfort, and my restless nights were dominated by persistent night sweats. Additionally, I was battling frustrating skin issues that seemed to resist all other forms of treatment.
From the very first session, I knew I was in good hands. Your thorough understanding of my concerns and willingness to explain the acupuncture process put me at ease. The ambiance of your clinic created a serene and comforting space, setting the tone for a transformative healing journey.
What amazed me most was the efficacy of acupuncture in addressing my various health challenges. The impact on my sleep was nothing short of miraculous. After a few sessions, I began experiencing deep, uninterrupted sleep, waking up refreshed and energized—a change I had been longing for, but never found through other methods.
Furthermore, the improvement in my skin condition was remarkable. Acupuncture seemed to trigger a healing response, and gradually, my skin issues started to fade away. I couldn't believe the visible transformation, and it did wonders for my self-confidence.
As for the night sweats and back pain, they became less frequent and intense with each session. Your targeted approach and skillful needle placement directly addressed the root causes of my discomfort, providing much-needed relief and easing the burdens I had carried for far too long.
I cannot stress enough how appreciative I am for the positive impact you've had on my life. Your dedication to helping your patients achieve better health and well-being is truly commendable. I wholeheartedly recommend your services to anyone seeking holistic and effective solutions to their health issues.
Once again, thank you for your expertise, kindness, and genuine care. You have not only been my acupuncturist but also a catalyst for transformative change in my life. I am forever grateful for the healing journey we embarked on together.
Thank you Dr. Marina Doktorman! Special shoutout to Olga for being so welcoming!

Auricular Acupuncture practitioners view the ear as a microsystem that reflects the entire body, with specific points corresponding to different organs and systems. By inserting fine needles into these points, they aim to rebalance the body’s Qi, or life energy, to promote healing and well-being. From a Western medical perspective, the ear’s rich nerve supply allows for nerve stimulation, which can lead to effects such as pain relief and relaxation.
How many Auricular Acupuncture sessions will I need?
The number of Auricular Acupuncture sessions needed varies depending on the individual and the condition being treated. Some may see improvement after just one or two sessions, while more chronic or complex issues may require a series of treatments over several weeks or months. Your acupuncturist will evaluate your condition and create a personalized treatment plan to meet your specific needs.
