Technological innovation in auriculotherapy – a trial

separating line

For several decades, auriculotherapy has been evolving thanks to the development of new detection and stimulation techniques. This approach is based on the correspondence between different areas of the outer ear and the body.

To support practitioners in their work, Sedatelec develops devices and technologies in France specifically designed for auriculotherapy and complementary medicine.

Technologies tailored to professionals

The practice of auriculotherapy may involve various stimulation methods, depending on the practitioner’s requirements.

The available solutions include, in particular:

  • semi-permanent needles;
  • electrical point detection;
  • electrical stimulation;
  • stimulation through light and colour;
  • laser stimulation;
  • instruments used in auriculotherapy.

These various technologies provide professionals with solutions tailored to their working methods.

The ASP®, a landmark innovation

Developed in collaboration with Dr Paul Nogier, the ASP® is a semi-permanent needle specially designed for auriculotherapy.

Its applicator allows the needle to be positioned precisely at the auricular point selected by the practitioner.

Since its inception, this solution has evolved whilst retaining the principles that have led to its adoption by auriculotherapy practitioners.

Laser technology for stimulation

Laser stimulation is another approach available to practitioners.

Cold lasers make it possible, in particular, to carry out stimulation without the use of needles. They can be used to stimulate points in auriculotherapy, acupuncture or reflexology, as well as for certain localised applications.

Sedatelec develops a range of laser stimulation solutions designed to meet the specific needs of professionals.

Designed and manufactured in France

From research and development right through to manufacturing, Sedatelec pays particular attention to the quality and traceability of its devices.

The design of the electronic devices and the manufacture of ASP® needles are carried out in France, using quality control processes tailored to the requirements applicable to the devices in question.

This expertise in design and manufacturing enables Sedatelec to continue developing new solutions for practitioners of complementary medicine.
