Ear seeds are one of those mysterious wellness trends that have taken the beauty world by storm. While the practice – more specifically known as “auricular acupressure” or “auriculotherapy” – has been utilized for centuries in traditional European medicine, its rise to modern prominence is due to likes of Chris Hemsworth and Naomi Campbell<\/a>.<\/p>\n

At the height of the pandemic in March 2020, the British supermodel appeared on YouTube<\/a> with a lengthy procedure on how she protects herself from illness (including acupressure). The past 12 months has put spotlight on our health. In a bid to ease internal and external stresses via a holistic approach, I took a leaf from Campbell’s often complicated wellness guide and tried the practice for myself. Enter: Auricle Ear Seeds<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Speaking with Elle Halliwell<\/a>, the founder of Auricle says she discovered auriculotherapy after her cancer diagnosis five years ago. After what she describes as “running on empty” for a decade, Halliwell adopted acupuncture as part of her self-care routine.<\/p>\n

“I have so much more respect for the body, particularly the incredible balance it maintains at any given moment, despite all of the external and internal stress we place on them.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“It was through an acupuncturist-friend of mine that I discovered the benefits of auricular therapy,” Halliwell tells GRAZIA. “Initially I only used traditional vaccaria seeds. But after discovering luxe gold-plated seeds from Japan I fell in love with their aesthetic and whenever I wore them I\u2019d get comments from strangers in the street, asking where they could get some. They weren\u2019t available in Australia, and I was already in my third year of a Naturopathic qualification, so I decided to add auriculotherapy to my studies and last year launched my own range.”<\/p>\n
