Weight Loss
Because losing weight isn’t about what you eat as much as why you are eating it, we accept that it is widely acknowledged the primary cause of unhealthy eating patterns is emotion.  This includes stress, boredom or unhappiness.  Therefore the key to lasting weight loss is understanding your relationship with food.  Ear Stapling can provide support during a weight loss programme by helping to curb your appetite and reduce cravings.

Smoking Cessation
Similarly, the application of Ear Staples can substantially reduce the nicotine cravings.  Indeed, this will probably be the year that smoking becomes less acceptable.  2007 saw the introduction of the public smoking ban and the subsequent raising of the legal age for buying tobacco to 18.  Do you really want to stand outside pubs and restaurants in the cold and wet whilst everyone else is partying indoors!

Stress Management
Some stress is good stress and essential to maintaining a healthy balance in life.  However, certain factors can assist in reducing the levels of unhealthy stress which lead to the manifestation of a range of unpleasant physical symptoms.  At least 6 hours of sleep a night is vital for a healthy mind and body.  Drinking 2 litres of water daily will flush out your system and help to boost your immunity.  Eat your five portions of fruit and veg a day.  Ear Stapling further assists in managing stress levels without the need for time consuming extra effort as the Ear Staples are in place for up to twelve weeks providing continuous support.

Migraines/Tension Headaches
The placement of the Ear Staples is designed to target the Accupressure points related to the causes of migraines and tension headaches.  There have been a number of positive testimonies to support this and it is worth noting that as 75% of non-specific headaches are related to dehydration, we would strongly recommend that you work towards drinking 2 litres of water every day.

IBS Type tendencies
There are many possible contributory causes to one or more of these symptoms.  They include food allergy, gut inflammation, stress, infection and toxic overload.  Whilst it is beneficial to see a Nutrition Consultant who can identify which factors are relevant, testimonies have shown that the placement of Ear Staples on the Accupressure points representing the stomach can alleviate a number of the unpleasant symptoms of this condition.
