Importance of the language in medicine and in science
The good word

The good definition The good thought
The good sentence
Before science, before medicine, there is a tongue
Without a good language, there is no science

there is no good medicine
www.nogier.info
Choose the good word

a word reference to a perception,
to a sensation, to a feeling, to a concept.
Ex : plane (flying machine, noise, fear, holidays,
accident etc…)
Chose the good sentence
In the sentence,
the hierarchy of the words is primordial
structure of thought
Importance of syntax

In a book, as in a brain
there are two different aspects
1) The knowledge = bibliography

2) The structure of thought = book plane
Crude knowledge Structure Good sentences

The words Syntax Freedom to think
www.nogier.info
Today, the problem to think is not the

knowledge, but the thought structure.
To think right, it is necessary to develop the ability to

link the words between them.
Mathematics mainly develop the notions of equality
but underestimate the notions of hierarchy.
The most important subject to develop the thought
structure is syntax.
Subject of the verb, direct object complement,
indirect object complement etc…

In Medicine, to do a diagnostic is not only

a question of knowledge but a question
of thought structure.
Because, the medical act consists to link
the signs between them and to order them
and to classify them.
The signs The thought structure The diagnostic

is the same than for text analysis

Before the discovery of auriculotherapy in Europe :

many body cauterisations
In ancient times, healers and even doctors used
bloodletting and cauterisations loco dolenti
to treat patients in the mediterranean basin.
Hippocrate (460-380 bc) : «Those diseases

which are not cured by medicines are cured
by the scalpel; those which are not cured by the
scalpel are cured by fire; those which are not
cure by fire can be considered incurable»

In 1951, Paul Nogier examines two patients

who have a scar on the inferior root of
anthelix.
The patients explain that they have been
treated for a sciatica by a quack, Mrs Barrin
from Marseille.
She treats only sciaticas, burning the anthelix.
The two patients explain that after the

cauterisation of anthelix,
the sciatica pain disappeared very
quickly.

Paul Nogier tries to treat all kinds of pain

with the Barrin point.

Paul Nogier
1908 - 1996
• General practitioner in Lyon (France)

• He studied physics before launching out in
medicine (he was an engineer)
• He studied homeopathy, acupuncture and
manual medicine

www.nogier.info
1951- An unusual observation
• two patients suffering from a sciatica

are cured by a cauterization (burning)
of an ear point (Mrs Barrin)
• Paul Nogier tries to understand why
this point is effective on sciatica pain
www.nogier.info
Following this observation

Study of the «Mrs Barrin Point»
• This ear point was not known in acupuncture

• Paul Nogier tries out this point for all kind of pain
and notices that the puncture of this point is only
active on sciatica pain
• It is why Paul Nogier associates this point to the
area L5-S1. Consequently he formulates a
hypothesis of a possible auricular somatotopy
22
2
20/09/2016
www.nogier.info
1951 - 1963
Research methods
• Paul Nogier employs methods based on
noci-ceptive stimulations
• a noci-ceptive stimulation of a body area
(periphery) creates on the ear a punctual
sensitivity disorder
www.nogier.info
1951 - 1963
Research methods
• « In healthy person, a properly chosen peripheral excitation, allows
collection of information on one of the ears which is always in the same
place, and refers to excitation in same physical area.»
Paul Nogier in Treatise of auriculotherapy. France: Maisonneuve, 1969
• «It becomes clear,” he continues, “that a pathological disorder could,

be a stimulator or a combination of stimulators, [that] manifest itself in
very precise points»
Paul Nogier in Treatise of auriculotherapy. France: Maisonneuve, 1969

20/09/2016
www.nogier.info
Procedures applied
Pathological correspondences:
a systematic research of vertebral or limb pain, in order to prove and to specify
the corresponding points on the auricle using a pressure probe.
Therapeutic proof: Study of therapeutic successes by using the detected points.
Particular observations: Study of some patients who show a particular sensitivity

and who were in a state such as a simple palpation of some ear points awakened
a diffuse pain in the corresponding peripheral area.
Experimental proof : Study by selective stimulations.

•Stimulation of peripheral area and collection of information present on the ear:
The stimulation consisted in cooling down for some instants a peripheral area
using some ice. As a result an excessive sensitivity to heat could be observed on
the auricle at the corresponding point. The presence of warmth on the point
becoming unbearable.
•Stimulation of ear points and study of the periphery: In a healthy person, the
stimulation of an ear point by heat changes the sensitivity of the corresponding
body part to cold.

Niboyet discovers the electrical
properties of the acupuncture points
The body acupuncture point can be found because they have

a lower electrical cutaneous resistivity
(Niboyet).
Paul Nogier applies this detection method on the ear. He

finds lower electrical resistivity points on the ear.
Consequently, he thinks that the ear points can be
detected either by pain, or by electrical measurement.
He uses electrical detection to confirm the localisations on
the ear.

1966
Paul Nogier discovers a new reflex:
auricular cardiac reflex
(RAC=Réflexe Auriculo Cardiaque)
If an organ is in disfunction, a
mechanical stimulation of the
corresponding point on the auricle
provokes an arterial reaction.
This phenomenon has been called:
RAC, VAS, Nogiers’ arterial reflex.
www.nogier.info
VAS and Ear Charts
Because of the difficulties to observe the relationships

between the periphery and the ear, Paul Nogier has
used the VAS system to precise the organs localisations
on the auricle.
In fact, many organs in disfunction are not painful and it
is not possible to detect their corresponding point on
the ear using pain detection (feeler pressure)

www.nogier.info
VAS and Ear Charts
In the seventies Paul Nogier used some biologic

preparations of tissues and stimulated the skin with
photons or electric stimulations through the preparation
(ampulae or test rings) and using the VAS phenomenon
noticed on the auricle the points corresponding to the
tissue.
Different techniques have been used.

the organ.
www.nogier.info
1987 publication
of a new ear chart
with the help of Alain Mallard, Bernard Julienne and
Françoise Petitjean
For the research, he used a stimulation on body

periphery with biologic tissue preparation held
between the thumb (pole+) and the index (pole-).
To research the corresponding point on the ear he
stimulates the ear with a ground pole.
The VAS is released at the corresponding point.

1988 publication
of the phases points
To boost the phenomenon, Paul Nogier uses a condensator
between the thumb and the organic tissue preparation. This
allowed to discover three points on the ear for each tissue.
Anthony DE SOUSA, MD
Paul Nogier speaks about points in phase I, in phase II, in phase III.
Example: the stomach has one main and two accessory

representations on the ear.
www.nogier.info
Conclusion
The history of auriculotherapy allows to understand why many
different ear charts have been published until now. It is possible to
explain the differences of the charts:
1. Confusion regarding the ear point nature: It seems that the painful
points on the ear are not the same as the electrically reacting points
2. Confusion regarding the precision of the points:

It is difficult to speak about precise points but we must speak about
probability zones to find one or several points
34
14
20/09/2016
www.nogier.info
Conclusion
3. Confusion regarding the study of the semiology: a pain of the

foot can be explained by a gout crisis or by a sciatic nerve
compression.
4. Confusion regarding the concepts of acupuncture and
auriculotherapy: auriculotherapy is not founded on the Yin and
Yang concept.
5. Confusion regarding the topographical point localisations: The
drawings of the ear are not standardised and it is necessary to
have a standard ear model. An efficient segmentation concept is
also needed.

General Thoughts. Preamble.

! We shall be careful about our lack of knowledge. It is not
because we do not understand certain phenomena that we
shall necessarily give them a sense or an explication.
! Confronted to facts we shall admit the evidence.
! We have the right to put forward hypothesis but we do not
have the right to affirm things which were not proved.
! Auriculomedicine is a technique, which shall be proved using
experimental protocols. This technique makes therapeutical
results possible and of course, there are still shadow areas.
! Auriculomedicine shall not be presented as a medicine of
« energy ». It is a technique, which uses physiological
properties of the skin.
36
www.nogier.info
Auriculomedicine. Definition
! If is a sum of medical techniques with a common
point, which is the taking of the radial pulse in
order to find the phenomenon called auriculo
cardiac reflex (so called RAC).
! In auriculomedicine, diagnostic as well as
therapeutical approach are present. Whereby the
auriculotherapy is principally used on therapeutical
level.

In 1965, Paul Nogier was looking for

possibilities in order to adapt the
treatment of the ear points.
! We shall not forget that at the beginning

auriculomedicine (which was not called like this at
that moment) was a technique used to improve
auriculotherapy.

39
www.nogier.info
Two events were at the origin of the

discovery of the VAS
! Paul Nogier knew the Chinese pulse and the

notions of Yin and Yang. In 1963 he described a
new parameter: the « Yu »
! The inhibition reflex of the lower limbs.
The RAC – the discovery itself,
… or a coincidence on its way
! In 1966 Paul Nogier noticed a variation on the

pulse while an ear point detection.

The auriculocardiac reflex.

Terminology
All these terms are synonyms:
! RAC : Auriculo cardiac reflex

! VAS: Vascular autonomic signal
! RAN: Arterial reflex of Nogier
! RAC: Autonomous circulatory response

used.

RAC. What do we feel?

1. The pulse becomes stronger :
RAC+, adrenergic response.
This reaction is generally present during three
pulsations. This response is the most frequently
observed one.
2. The pulse becomes weaker, more far away:
RAC-, cholinergic response.
This reaction is generally present during three
pulsations.
3. The pulse becomes very hard, cutting:

What is VAS?
! VAS is: a physiologic
reaction which can be
observed as a change in the
artery wall tonus as response
to cutaneous stimulations or
emotions.
! VAS is: the expression of a
manifestation of the nervous

46
www.nogier.info
Second step:
stimulation of points using light
! This is a decisive step in

auriculomedicine.
The points are stimulated
using a precise light beam.
! A RAC reaction is present,
when the point is pathologic.
! There is no RAC, in case the
point is in good health.
www.nogier.info
Third Step.
Stimulation of bigger ear areas.
Notion of an area
! « When we examine a large number of ears and
especially those of young and healthy persons, we can
be surprised by the fact that it is possible to release
a RAC reaction when we stimulate a sufficiently large
surface of the skin. Which is not the case, when a
single little part of this area is stimulated.
! « A more deeper study of this phenomenon shows
that there exist precisely limited areas, where clear
and homogeneous reactions can be observed. »

www.nogier.info
Fourth step.
Coupled stimulations.
! In this case it is about stimulating a body area

(i. e. using light) and searching for an ear point
which reacts to the identical stimulation.
! When red light is projected on the knee : the
knee point on the ear becomes reactive to the
stimulation with red light.
! This procedure is interesting for the studying of
ear somatotopies but also for the study of
excluded areas.
48
www.nogier.info
Fifth step.
stimulations on the body.
! This was the last step and with no doubt the most
promising one. It is possible to release vascular
reactions by stimulating only the skin surface. To
do this, « large » light spectrums are used : white
light, coloured light, infra red light, light in
frequencies.

VAS.
1993: Hypothesis of Michel Marignan
! « The significant form of the wave was identified by the help
of numeric signals. This modification of the wave happens
with no change of the rhythm and can be present during 8 to
15 cycles of the cardiac evolution. It begins at the period of
1 to 3 cycles after the cardiac evolution. Here, we put
forward the hypothesis that it is a modification of the
oscillation mode of the artery, which becomes a less mode
amortised, before the impulse attack of the systole. We
physically explain this stiffening by the brutal modification
of the rigidity of the artery wall, and we know that this one
is under the dependance of the neuro-vegetative system.
There exist a concordance of about 95% between the
stimulation signal and the presence of the characteristic
www.nogier.info
VAS.
1993: Hypothesis of Michel Marignan
! « The VAS phenomenon, a reaction of the neuro-

vegetative expression non specific in itself, seems

From VAS
to cutaneous photo perception
! 1982: Dr. Raphaël NOGIER, Dr.Yves MENEZO and
Dr.Roger SANTINI practise a series of experiments (at
INSA) using « blind » rabbits, resulting in three
conclusions:
1. White light pulsed at 9 Hz on the fur of a rabbit creates
an increase of circulating catecholamines (while
continuous white light creates a decrease of blood
catecholamines in this rabbit).
2. Pulsed white light increases significantly glycemia.
3. Continuous white light leads to an increase of the
acetylcholinesterase level, compared to the rabbits
treated with discontinuous light.

Electromagnetic waves
• Electromagnetic waves carry energy. They transit in vacuum
at light speed. When they meet an obstacle a part of energy
is reflected, while an other part is is absorbed and
transformed. For example, the sun light is partially reflected
by clothes, which allows us to perceive their colour. The
absorbed part of the sun energy we perceive as warmth.
Energy increases regarding to frequency, leading to even
getting dangerous. In this way the radio waves can pass
through the human body without causing any danger to
health. On the other hand the x-rays at high dosage can
burn up cells. In this case we talk about ionising rays.

Light - what is it?
• Light is the sum of

electromagnetic waves
visible to the eye.
• We can see light in the
range from 380 to 780
nano-metres wave
length

55
www.nogier.info
• Light is a phenomenon deriving from different light sources

like luminous devices, stars, flames captured by light
receptors, like the eye, a photograph panel, a video camera,
a CCD panel.
A light source transforms the energy it is using (electric,
chemical, thermic energy) to luminous energy.
Light carries this energy up to the receptor.

A receptor is a system, which transforms the received
luminous energy in an other kind of energy (electric, chemical,
thermic energy).
For example, an electric lamp transforms a part of the

received electric energy to luminous energy.
A photonic-battery transforms a part of received energy
in electrical energy.
The eye transforms the received energy in nerve influx.

system -
It’s function is :
the vision - to receive
- and to transform the
electromagnetic vibrations of the
light into a nervous influx,
- which are transported by the
optical nerves up to the brain areas
responsible for vision.

57
www.nogier.info
Does light have any other

action on the CNS ?
• Ovulation is influenced by
light passing via the eye to
the hypothalamus. Fertility
can be improved in rabbits
by15%, when light exposure
is increased from 6 hours
to16 hours.
• The egg production in

chicken when exposed to
artificial light can be
explained by the
hypophysis stimulation.
www.nogier.info

development of male organs.
• in non castrated birds,

only red and orange

Light and larva development.

P.Disclos. Bordeaux
• Normal time frame of
the amphibian anuran
larva development when
exposed to a normal
photostimulation
= from 244 to 260
days
• In case of a permanent
light exposure
= 130 days
www.nogier.info

P.Disclos. Bordeaux
• In case when the eyes of the
larva are destroyed by surgery,
a permanent light exposure
leads to the accomplishment of
the larva life cycle in 130 days.
• Consequently the eyes do not

intervene in this process.
• «"Therefore we can imagine the
participation of deeply
implanted nervous photo-
receptors, which is supported
by the tegument transparence
».

59
www.nogier.info

P.Disclos. Bordeaux
• In case when the

hypophysis is taken
out in a larva, the light
action is still present -
probably there is an
action directly on
cellular level.

Light and depression
• SAD. Seasonal affective

disorder:
• Sleep disorders
• Sadness
• Gain of weight
• Cognitive disorders
• Mainly in autumn
It seems that light stimulates the serotonine production

60
www.nogier.info
Why does every colour of light

have a specific action?
• Every wave length has a

specific action on certain cell
organits.
• Example: the cytochrome b,

indispensable for cell
respiration, is inhibited
selectively by 530 nm, while
633 nm has no action
presenting the same power
(Rounds and Johnson)

Influence of the pulsed light on rabbit (via the skin)

www.nogier.info
Very original experiments

realised from1981 to 1985.
The aim was to see, if a rabbit biologically

makes difference between a continuous white
light and a white light pulsed at 9 Hz on this
fur coat.
Biological elements studied were:

blood catecholamins, glycemia, acetyl-cholinesterase.
54
62
www.nogier.info
www.nogier.info
27 rabbits were separated in 3 groups:
group 1 - exposure to continuous light

group 2 - exposure to pulsed light
group 3 - no treatment (control group)
63
www.nogier.info
www.nogier.info
In a «blind» rabbit
1. A white light pulsed at 9 Hz on the rabbit fur coat creates
in this rabbit an increase of circulating catecholamines.
Contrary, a continuous white light creates a decrease of
blood catecholamine level.
2. A pulsed white light significantly increases the glycemia.
3. A continuous white light provokes:
- an increase of acetylcholinesterase level
(when compared with rabbits exposed to pulsed light)

www.nogier.info

Prix GLEM 2006
• The bio-photon emission is not limited to
small organisms. It can be observed in
humans. The wave length of this emission
corresponds to the peroxydation
processes of the oxygenated and lipidic
radical.
www.nogier.info

Prix GLEM 2006
• In absolute dark a filter No.25 (WK) is approached
at 7 cm to the hand of a person. The photon
emission is measured on the hand back side and
the forehead.
• The filter remains at this distance during 200 sec.
• The results show an increase of photo emission on
the back side of the same hand, as well as of the
forehead during the exposition of the palm of hand
to the filter No. 25.

69
www.nogier.info

Prix GLEM 2006
• These experiments prove the action of the WK 25
filter when used in absolute light absence.
• This confirms the Paul Nogier observations, who
noticed that the approach of a filter to the body
in absolute dark triggers a VAS reaction.

Photo perception
and photo emission
Paul Nogier:
« The effects obtained by the coloured light projection on the
auricle are very different to those obtained by the approach,
contact or withdrawal of a filter.
The latter being a means of measurement of energetic emissions
of the auricle.
The first mentioned, we use to study the receptive areas »

Photogram in practise
1. It is necessary to
project coloured light
onto the skin (the skin
surface shall be large).
1. It is necessary to wait
for 10 pulsations
before changing the
filter.
www.nogier.info
What is the physiological response?
! In normal situation, every colour shall release a

VAS reaction.
! After a filter is changed there is no VAS during 2

pulsations.
! After these two pulsations the pulse becomes

stronger for two or three pulsations.
! At least the pulse becomes normal again.

92
www.nogier.info
What is the physiological response?
! In case the pulse collapses and the VAS shows an

cholinergic expression, we can say that a photo
perception gap is present.
! It is possible to find several photo perception gaps

in one patient, example : red 25, green 58,etc…

Frequencies in pathology
! The discovery of the frequencies allowed to make
the definition of frequency pathologies. In fact,
certain diseases are accompanied by a photo
perception disorder regarding frequencies. This
disorder can be present locally or on a general
scale.
! Ex: Shoulder pain. We study the photo perception
in the painful area and by doing so define the so
called « electromagnetic signature » of the lesion.

Laterality
The impossible

human being

We have two ears …

www.nogier.info
Symmetry ! 2 systems
www.nogier.info
Symmetry, locomotion,
nervous system
" There exist two

distinctive parts in
respect of the
symmetry axis.
" The nervous system

has two hemispheres in
order to control the
two distinctive parts
of the body. Photo: Prof. Pierre Rabischong

www.nogier.info
Commissures
" The two brain

hemispheres function
as a unity and are
linked one with the
other by fibres that
form the corpus
callosum.
Photo: Prof. Pierre Rabischong

Representation of the commissures

on the ear
" The commissures are

represented on the ear
at the extern side of
the tragus.

111
www.nogier.info
Symmetry and laterality
Symmetry and laterality are two different notions
" Symmetry = geometric notion
" Laterality= functional asymmetry
www.nogier.info
Fundamental differences between the

human being and the animal
Human being:
" Notion and consciousness of itself.
" Time consciousness: yesterday,
today, tomorrow.
" Consciousness of the death, of the
end.
" The word, sentence, writing.
" Abstraction, creation.

112
www.nogier.info
Only the human being is equipped with

laterality
" If we look at a group of apes,
we will see that the apes do not
have any preference for the
use of the right or the left
hand.
" 90% of the human beings are

right-handed.
" ?????? What are the
consequences ???
www.nogier.info
The human being is right-handed from

his birth
" 90% of babies turn their head to the right side in

their bed, does not matter if they lay on their
back or on their chest.
" 90% of children write with the right hand. 90% of

adults turn on the right side when walking up
stairs.
" The whole society is build in favour of the right-
handed persons.
113
www.nogier.info
Society and laterality
" Antiquity: in case when pigeons take their flight to

the right side, this ment a good omen.
" Bible: The just sit to the right side of God!
" A right man at the right place.
" He is sinister.
www.nogier.info
The brain creates certain notions
" Colours exist only because of the

eyes.
" The notion of high and low exists

because of the internal ear.
" Before/behind exist only because of

the eyes.
" Right and left are notions created

by human beings.
114
www.nogier.info
Laterality in medicine
" Broca, XIXth century:
– The left hemisphere is the seat of the linguistic
ability. Aphasia is in 99% of the cases the result
of hemiplegia of the right hemisphere.
" Pavlov, XIXth century siècle:
– We can distinguish persons into thinkers and
artists.
" Sperry, Nobel Price in 1981:
– There exist functional differences between the
right and the left cerebral hemispheres.
www.nogier.info
Right-handed.
Human left hemisphere
Hemisphere of:
" language +++
" mathematics +++
" non visual,
" non hearing,
" non tactile
" non spatial
" pleasant mood

115
www.nogier.info
Right-handed.
Left hemisphere of the human being
Hemisphere of:
" Aphasia
" Mathematics: 0/20
" Vision
" Auditive
" Tactile
" Spatial
" Unpleasant mood
www.nogier.info
How does our world perception happen?
1. All information is gathered by the right

hemisphere.
2. This information is transferred to the left

hemisphere via the inter hemispheric fibres.
3. The left hemisphere «creates» the

abstractions.

116
www.nogier.info
Age and laterality

At its our on the child possesses two « right
hemispheres»
" In the age period between 0 and 6, the

learning will allow to develop the function of the
left hemisphere.
" At the age of 6:

This is the age of the reasoning: time conscience,
of death, capacity to create abstractions
!writing. Beginning of the metaphysical anxiety.
" In the age period between 6 and 21: Learning
www.nogier.info
Corpus callosum and laterality
" The system of

« laterality » can only
function when there is a
correct functioning of
the corpus callosum.

117
www.nogier.info
All animals develop symmetry
www.nogier.info
Why is there symmetry ?
" The only way for a living organism to displace is to

use locomotion. This means that a development of
an asymmetry axis is necessary.
" Locomotion implies two functions:

– Function of motricity
– Function of symmetry

Neurohumoral points
• Points of lower cutaneous electrical resistance
(works of Niboyet, 1963).
• Detectable only with equipment using electrical detection.
• They are probably in relation with the thermoregulation
system.
• To study them allows to appreciate the organ function.
