Piercing FAQ

If you are thinking about getting a piercing for medical purposes, you should definitely have a detailed and clarifying discussion with your trusted piercer. Not every piercer is familiar with alternative healing methods and acupuncture points. In order for your condition to improve at all, the piercing must be placed in exactly the right spot. The migraine piercing, for example, is located on the zero point. This is located on the cartilage fold above the entrance to the ear. The point cannot just be estimated, but must be measured exactly. The same applies to the Shen Men piercing (an energy point inside the pinna) and the tragus piercing (an energy point at the cartilage of the ear entrance). An experienced piercer is able to measure these special energy points perfectly and insert the piercing perfectly.
