PALPATION & AURICULOTHERAPY

In auriculotherapy, palpation is used to identify pressure-sensitive points on the outer ear.
This probe highlights (through a pulse or pain) the various tissue reactions under the influence of increasing pressure, which is maintained at a constant level throughout the measurement.
Colored markers help you precisely assess the pressure level—that is, the intensity or depth at which you detect a reaction.

The auricular examination is performed in two stages: palpation of both ears to locate a painful area, followed by identification of tender points using a probe.

This mechanical detection using the probe is based on the principle of pain response; between 130 g and 250 g, the pathognomonic sign of a grimace is clearly observed.

Usage

:
Holding the probe perpendicular to the skin, the practitioner slowly searches for the point by applying successive pressures, allowing the patient to indicate their reaction with each application.

PROBES & AURICULOMEDICINE

: The use of the probe in auriculomedicine differs.
The goal is not to detect pressure-sensitive points, but to stimulate the auricle with the probe to analyze the reactions of the V.A.S.

Probes thus allow for the study of reactions at three tissue levels:

• deep: 250–400 g
• medium: 130–250 g
• superficial: 60–130 g
