Ear Seeds for Addiction
Ear seeds help support addiction recovery by gently stimulating specific acupressure points on the ear that are linked to cravings, stress regulation, and emotional balance.
Used in auricular therapy, ear seeds apply continuous, light pressure that may help calm the nervous system, reduce anxiety, and ease physical and emotional urges often associated with addiction. By supporting the body’s natural stress response and promoting relaxation, ear seeds can be a gentle, non-invasive tool to encourage balance and resilience during recovery.
Many people use ear seeds alongside therapeutic and lifestyle support as part of a holistic approach to healing and wellbeing.
Using ear seeds to support addiction is a simple, discreet way to encourage calm, reduce cravings, and support nervous system balance as part of a holistic routine.
Each set comes with detailed ear maps written by licensed acupuncturist and AcuPips founder Zoë Young, making it easy to place your ear seeds on the correct acupressure points associated with craving regulation, stress relief, and emotional support.
Once applied, gently press each ear seed for 10–20 seconds, two to three times per day to encourage relaxation and help the body return to balance.
AcuPips ear seeds are made from gold plated, silver or rose gold metal, crystal, or natural vaccaria seeds, making them discreet, comfortable, and suitable for everyday wear. The adhesive used is 3m grade and typically skin-safe, and designed to hold the ear seeds securely in place while still allowing for easy removal.
For best results, ear seeds can be worn for 3–5 days at a time and used consistently alongside supportive recovery practices such as counselling, mindfulness, healthy routines, and adequate rest. While ear seeds do not treat or cure addiction, using them with expert-guided ear maps helps ensure safe, intentional placement and can support a more grounded, confident approach to managing cravings, stress, and emotional balance as part of a holistic recovery routine.
