What is this course about?
The course teaches the basics of auriculotherapy
according to P. Nogier and R. Bourdiol, the discoverers
and developers of auriculotherapy, in its application to the ear of the dog and the horse. You will learn about the transposed ear somatotopes as well as old and new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to the ear of the dog and horse and thus the potential treatment spectrum of auriculotherapy in animals. On this basis, you can develop auriculotherapy into your leading discipline and use it for the diagnosis and supportive therapy of a wide range of disorders - or you can simply use it pragmatically and to a limited extent to augment your treatment focus.
Who is the course suitable for?
The course is suitable for all animal therapists who are interested in the unique diagnostic and therapeutic approach of auriculotherapy. As a veterinarian, animal naturopath, animal physiotherapist or animal osteopath, you can specialize in auriculotherapy or integrate it into your treatment spectrum in a solution-oriented way. No matter how much importance you attach to auriculotherapy: Our course will show you the potential variety of possibilities.
Our training is unique, as the localizations on the animal ear are based on P. Nogier's original somatotopes, which have been transferred to the animal ear.
