Energetics 1
The geometrical and physiological center of the whole auricle. It brings the whole body toward homeostasis, producing a balance of energy, a balance of hormones, and a balance of brain activity. It supports the actions of other auricular points and returns the body to the idealized state that was originally present in the womb.[37]
Energetics 2
On the auricular somatotopic map, Point Zero is located where the umbilical cord would rise from the abdomen of the inverted fetus. Treats disorders related to birth trauma and diseases affecting newborn infants.[37]
