This method does not exclude the use of instrumental and laboratory methods in diagnostics of diseases, but may lead to a
lessening of their role in the diagnostic process.
Some Notes on Physiology and Anatomy of the Auricle
The auricle (auricula) until recently had been only as a body part which allowed a human being to capture sounds. But
during the second half of the last century, many studies demonstrated that the auricle represented a special reflex or
acupuncture system with internal organs and parts of the body schematically shown. At present, of the entire range of mini-
acupuncture systems there are only two included in the WHO'S International Acupuncture Nomenclature. One of these two
is the auricular microacupuncture system (MA in WHO terminology).
The majority of modern scientists believe that the "secret" of auricular diagnostics and auricular
consists in a
particular innervation of the auricle, where numerous nerves are concentrated, including branches of the trigeminal (V)
nerve, cervical plexus (C2-C3), facial nerve (VII), intermediate glossopharyngeal nerve (IX) and the nervus vagus (X).
The shape of certain parts of the ear, its size, age changes, and the difference between the right ear and the left ear are
individual. However, any auricle will always have certain anatomic parts in any case.
Auricle Examination
Determining the Degree of Pain Tolerance
Aches and pains and other sensations in the auricle, the condition of the skin (such as hyperaemia (reddening of the skin),
pustules or scarring), and the study of the auricle's sensitivity to pain allow to obtain valuable information on the state of
organs and systems of the body.
During the BIOREPER examination, special attention must be paid to points with increased sensitivity to pain. When
determining the degree of the auricle's sensitivity to pain, the electrode should be held perpendicular to the skin. The
pressure on the skin must be equal and even, not strong. Be careful not to allow the sensor to slide on the surface of the
auricle. It is recommended to apply pressure to the point for no more than 10-15 seconds.
Points with maximum level of sensitivity must be treated in the
program at the frequency of 60 or 77 Hz in
mode for 2 or 3 minutes (no more than 3 separate points per session).
Positioning of Auricular Points
There are various coordinate systems to find auricular points (APs) on the auricle. One such system is the system of angle
