“I heard about German Auricular Medicine from a friend of mine who told me about a medical doctor in pain management who studied at the Canadian Institute of Auricular Medicine and started using auricular acupuncture in his practice with fantastic results for his patients. I have been using auricular points in my practice and I saw how powerful the medicine was. And, so I decided that maybe I'll learn something more from the source, the Canadian Institute [of Auricular Medicine].” – Marina D...

...there are many other practitioners that can use it! You've got people from different disciplines and they’re coming together with this beautiful system of German Auricular Medicine — and then they’re going back and practicing that, whether they are a massage therapist, or a chiropractor, or an acupuncturist.

With clients whose progress has plateaued, I check for blockages to healing such as scars, old injuries, hidden dental problems, pain memory accumulations, vitamin/mineral deficiencies and toxicities. For clients with multiple complex issues, I use the system to direct me to the most useful intervention. When injuries cannot be approached locally, they can be accessed via the ear. Patients appreciate the accuracy and results of this system." – Dee Brown, LAc, MAc, DiplAc, Dipl CH | Level I CI...

My clinical results have improved greatly as I can more comprehensively address a wide range of conditions." – Anita Teigen, LAc, Dipl OM | Level II CIAM Certified Acupuncturist in ...

...I pursued a deep study of this auricular medicine. My practice slowly changed from pure body acupuncture to a full German Auricular Medicine practice because of the exceptional results I was seeing.

This medicine has exponentially increased what I can offer to my clients." – Lisa Weleschuk, TCMD, RAc | CIAM Instructor & Level III CIAM Certified Acupuncturist in Alberta
