-
EA is not focused on symptom relief per se, but on expanding awareness, aligning inner and outer life, and preventing future imbalance by raising the energetic vibration of the individual.
-
It is particularly effective for people on a spiritual path, those processing trauma at the soul level, or those seeking inner clarity.
Preventive and Evolutionary Healing
-
Esoteric Acupuncture aims to align the individual's energy field with universal consciousness.
-
Treatments are often accompanied by meditative states, visualisation, or inner guidance, with the patient remaining consciously aware during the session.
-
The goal is to support the evolution of the soul and its integration with the body and mind.
Accessing Higher Planes of Consciousness
-
EA acknowledges multiple levels of the human system: physical, etheric, emotional, mental, causal, and spiritual bodies.
-
The needles are not just used for moving Qi in the meridians, but for "tuning" the vibrational field across these layers.
Energetic Layers and Subtle Bodies

Esoteric Acupuncture

What is Esoteric Acupuncture?
Esoteric Acupuncture is a modern system of acupuncture that integrates Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with sacred geometry, spiritual philosophy, meditation, and consciousness development. It was founded by Dr. Mikio Sankey, a licensed acupuncturist and naturopathic doctor, who developed the method to address not only physical and emotional imbalances but also energetic and spiritual evolution. Unlike classical acupuncture, which is symptom- and pattern-based, Esoteric Acupuncture (EA) focuses on aligning the subtle energy body and activating the heart centre and higher consciousness. It is particularly suited for patients seeking spiritual growth, mental clarity, or deep emotional integration. Esoteric Acupuncture is an energetic healing system based on:
-
Traditional acupuncture meridians and points
-
Sacred geometry (patterns such as tetrahedra, hexagons, star configurations)
-
The chakra system
-
Kabbalistic and yogic philosophy
-
Meditation, visualisation, and spiritual intention
EA uses specific geometric patterns of point selection, known as “New Encoding Patterns,” which are designed to open the Heart centre, align the mind and spirit, and activate the individual's higher energy fields.
-
Central to EA is the activation of the Heart chakra (Anāhata), which is seen as the gateway to higher consciousness.
-
Points like CV17 (Shanzhong), HT7 (Shenmen), and PC6 (Neiguan) are commonly used to initiate this opening.
-
The goal is not just emotional healing, but the unfolding of spiritual perception and coherence.
Opening the Heart Center
-
EA uses specific sacred geometric sequences of acupuncture points (e.g., diamond, octahedron, spiral).
-
These patterns are thought to "encode" new frequencies into the body’s energetic system, facilitating deeper transformation and spiritual awakening.
-
The order of needling is crucial and intentional.
