5 Surprising Scientific Benefits of Wearing Earrings

Even though it may seem that earrings are nothing more than a fashion accessory, a symbol of beauty, status, and sexual appeal, a number of people believe that earrings have a deeper meaning, and perform a function besides serving as a statement of beauty.

First, it's important to understand that earrings, especially those made of gold, are believed to have healing properties. But not for just the body—the piercing itself is said to heal the mind, bringing the wearer good luck, happiness, and prosperity. 

Still, let's put the spotlight on the surprising, yet scientific reasons wearing earrings are actually good for you in more ways than one. 

What Makes Wearing Earrings Good for Your Health?

Benefit #1: Gold Earrings Improve Blood Circulation

Although gold isn't the most commonly used metal for earrings, it's been said to have miraculous healing properties. Because of its soothing vibrations, gold is believed to be able to reduce inflammation, enhance blood circulation and improve skin health. 

Thanks to gold's incredible ability to improve blood circulation, it's also believed to aid in a woman's reproductive health. That's why women from centuries ago would wrap gold around their stomachs during their pregnancy, as gold jewellery helped the blood to circulate through the body, providing enough nourishment for their unborn child.

Benefit #2: Gold Earrings Promote Healthy Skin

Thanks to the blood circulation-enhancing benefits of gold earrings, wearing gold jewellery is also said to help with skin diseases and skin disorders. For example, gold earrings are great at promoting the healing of skin ailments such as dermatitis and eczema, as well as conditions like acne. Gold's healing effects are also believed to fight skin conditions such as psoriasis.

Benefit #3: Gold Earrings Soothes Arthritis

While it's important to note that medical science hasn't proven the efficacy of this claim, gold being a natural anti-inflammatory, it's believed to provide relief for the symptoms of arthritis.

In addition to wearing gold earrings, it's also believed that the touch of gold jewellery will help relieve the pain from arthritis, because of the added pressure from the gold pressing against the skin.

Benefit #4: Gold Earrings Enhances Your Immunity 

The reason for this is that you can't help but feel good wearing gold, which makes you happy, boosting your self-esteem and well-being. And as you recall from the first benefit, gold is also known to calm the mind and bring about happiness, which in turn lowers stress and boosts the body's immune system.

Benefit #5: Gold Earrings Eases Migraines and Other Painful Conditions

Wearing gold jewellery not only helps in the healing of skin conditions but is also said to help with other painful conditions and ailments, such as headaches and migraines. The beneficial effects of gold earrings are believed to ease headaches and migraines with the gentle pressure from the earrings, especially when pierced at the right pressure points. 

The Bottom Line: The Many Wonders of Wearing Gold Earrings

The positive effects of gold earrings are often alluding, and unless you believe in the power of wearing gold jewellery, you may not notice that your life has improved. However, many people swear by the amazing benefits of wearing gold earrings and have reported having their lives completely transformed through the power of gold.
