How Does SAAT Work?
SAAT is based on the concept that the ear is a microsystem of the body, with various points on the ear corresponding to different organs and systems. By stimulating these specific acupoints, the therapy helps to modulate the immune system and reduce allergic responses. The procedure involves:
Initial Assessment
The process begins with an evaluation by a trained practitioner who will assess the patient's medical history, allergies, and symptoms. A detailed consultation is essential to tailor the therapy to the individual’s specific needs.
Identification of Target Acupoints
Based on the patient’s allergies, specific acupoints on the ear are identified. These points correspond to the immune system and the body’s response to allergens. The practitioner uses this knowledge to determine the optimal treatment plan.
Auricular Stimulation
The therapy involves the use of auricular acupuncture needles to the identified acupoints on the ear. Tiny intradermal needles are applied to specific points, allowing for continuous stimulation over a longer period.
One Needle Per Allergen
SAAT is a novel, non-invasive treatment designed to help individuals manage and reduce allergic symptoms by targeting specific acupoints on the ear.
