| Acupuncture: "auriculotherapy" to recover saliva
| Login/Join |
Last evening on the french TV, I heard of "auriculotherapy", a kind of accupuncture in the hear. They were saying that it was a useful tool to recover saliva after radiotherapy.
Did anyone tried and can tell me if it's really useful? This message has been edited. Last edited by: Dr Vinod K Joshi, |

Hello Vincent
Just realised your post was missed. You might past discussions on accupuncture and saliva flow stimulation of interest.

I have been having ear acupuncture for quite some time - it was developed originally on the battlefields of Vietnam I think. I have founf it very good, the effects are not instant but build up over time for me - about 4 weeks. I reallt noticed it over the Xmas period when I couldn't see my acupuncturist for some three weeks, I really started to notice how dry my motuh was becoming. I can go through the whole night now without having to wake up to drink.

I had awful problems with Dry Mouth since completing treatment for base of tongue cancer in July 2010. Constant drinking, gels, sprays and synthetic saliva’ 24/7/ became unbearable. I found in the US a Colonel Richard Niemtzow who discovered, developed and still practices his Dry Mouth treatment in Maryland.USA. He also created battlefield acupuncture and is the world renowned authority on these treatments.
I exhausted places in the UK to be treated with his protocol. so visited him July 9th, 2011 and within the first of only two sessions was able to produce saliva again. No more gels, sprays and synthetic saliva since this date and unbroken sleep since. I was profoundly affected at the results of the treatment so started in the UK The Dry Mouth Foundation. www.drymouthfoundation.org. but you could visit the colonel via his website www.n5ev.com Let me know how you get on.
