Ear Candling
Ear Candling is an Ancient remedy used to cleanse the ear canals and sinus passages. In this process, soft waxes and toxins will be drawn out of the ear, oxidized, and turned in to vapors. Ear Candling can remove bothersome blockages from the ear canal and help the sinuses drain freely, reducing congestion.
During an ear candling treatment, the practitioner lights and places a hollow paraffin or beeswax candle in the clients ear and allows the candle to burn down. While it burns, the client may hear crackling noises and feel warmth in the ear but overall the treatment is very relaxing. The candles used are made specifically for this process and there is no dripping of wax like a normal candle. One or two candles are used per ear depending on the session and clients body. Most people see results instantly or within a few hours of a treatment.
Ear Candling is shown to be great for treating swimmers ear, chronic sinusitis, ear aches and pain, migraines/headaches, excessive wax, ringing in the ears, inner ear pressure, and chronic ear infections.
Note, this therapy cannot be performed while there is an ear infection present or with tubes in the ears without a doctors permission.
