Soliman's Auricular Allergy Treatment Basics
1. History
SAAT is a highly specific procedure that has the ability to significantly diminish sensitivities to any kind of allergy. This procedure was built on the work of Dr. Paul Nogier in France in the 1960s. Dr. Nogier is the father of modern auricular acupuncture and discovered multiple points and zones on the ear that could be treated with a variety of methods. Dr. Nader Soliman began SAAT around 2003 as detailed on other internet sites. SAAT treatments have the effect of reprograming your autonomic nervous system to instruct the immune system how to respond to a particular allergen. Some use the term reprogram, some desensitize.
2. Auricular
Many people don't realize how powerful auricular acupuncture can be. There are four (4) cranial nerves that have direct connection with the brain.
Cervical Roots of C2 and C3 also refer to that area along with the cervical sympathetic plexus.
In simple terms...the ear has reflexive points that are hard-wired to the brain where the majority of instructions for the autonomic nervous system are issued.
You can address so many conditions the body is experiencing through the ear. And it also has powerful anti-pain zones.
Ken and Diana Harbour are specialists in Auricular Acupuncture Therapy.
3. Pins
An incredibly small Spinex pin is utilized in the SAAT treatment.
Patients will usually have questions about this because of their experiences with syringe type needles used in a medical doctor's office. THESE ARE NOTHING LIKE THAT.
We have treated children from age 4 and up with no problem and the children feeling literally NOTHING!
One pin may be used or perhaps two based on the allergen. And the pin will remain in place for at least 3 weeks.
4. Medical Tx
SAAT is only one part of auricular medicine. Dr. Soliman has developed several levels of instruction and training seminars to enhance providers' ability to utilize the ear as a focus of therapy.
His first level is Auricular Therapy, his second is Auricular Medicine and includes some additional advanced techniques.
Dr. Soliman has patients who have sought him out from all over the United States and many foreign countries.
SAAT treatment is just one of the highlights of auricular therapy yet one of the most life-changing protocols we could offer at The Harbour Clinic.
