What is Ear Bean Acupressure?

Ear bean acupressure is a Traditional Chinese Medicine health preservation method that requires treatment under the guidance of a physician. Since there are many acupuncture points on the ears, appropriate stimulation of these points can serve the purpose of disease prevention and treatment. Ear bean acupressure is developed on the basis of auricular therapy, mainly by attaching smooth, nearly round traditional Chinese medicinal herbs onto the ear acupuncture points and then applying slight pressure. This can create sensations such as obvious tingling, swelling pain, and heat, thereby achieving the purpose of treating diseases. During the above-mentioned treatment process, a comprehensive examination of the auricle is required to check for various symptoms such as desquamation, papules, hyperemia, erosion, and more. If severe pain occurs during the treatment process, it is abnormal and the treatment should be immediately stopped. One should also promptly visit the hospital for examination and treatment. In daily life, actively participating in physical exercise, such as practicing Tai Chi, push-ups, and cycling, can accelerate blood circulation in the body and effectively prevent the occurrence of various diseases. In addition, it is necessary to adjust sleep habits, ensure sufficient sleep time, avoid staying up late for extended periods, and change the diet structure by appropriately consuming easily digestible foods such as millet porridge and pumpkin porridge to supplement the body with nutrients.
