Abstract
An earring for the stimulation of acupuncture points or lines present in the human outer ear consists of a hooplike open ended jewelry piece having opposite end portions, one being adapted to be received in the outer ear cavity and the other abutting the rear wall of the outer ear, wherein the earring consists of electrically conductive cast bronze material with an iron end piece cast into one end portion of the open-ended bronze hoop so as to provide at the opposite end portions for opposite face areas of materials which, in accordance with the electrochemical voltage series, provide for a potential therebetween when in contact with an ear which potential causes a current a flow through the ear for stimulation of the adjacent acupuncture points or lines in the outer ear.
