Summary

Auricular acupuncture is a method for diagnosing and treating physical and psychosomatic dysfunctions by stimulating a specific point in the ear. Some studies prove that the acupoints on the pinna have a corresponding relationship to the areas of the body. Some research also show that acupuncture acupoints on the body can change the temperature of the corresponding area. In our study, we survey the skin surface's temperature change when using auricular acupuncture at jaw point and tooth point in each side of the ear in heatlhy people.
