COURSE DESCRIPTION

FUNCTIONAL DISORDERS are the focus of Auriculotherapy Module 2.

In this module, we build on the foundation from Module 1 and work with functional points and body organ imbalances. You will be introduced to VAS (Vascular Autonomic Signal) and learn how it can be used as a tool to detect and treat functional disorders. We also work with the ear's reflection of organs, the brain and the central nervous system.
