Ear Candling is an ancient form of Natural Healing Folk Art. It has been passed down through generations and is a method for cleansing the ears. We take extra precautions in ensuring our clients comfort and safety because we want to make sure our service is as relaxing as it is effective.
This technique uses a hollow wax candle approximately 7 to 9 inches long. The candle is gently inserted into the ear canal and then is lighted, thus creating a slight vacuum in order to pull out wax and other debris. The candle is allowed to burn to about 1 or 2 inches from the ear then extinguished, it will burn about 7 to 10 minutes. The entire time the client is lying down and very still. Once one ear is treated, the client is turned over and the other ear is treated. Depending on how much debris is removed, it may be necessary to use two candles per ear. Through a process called "convection" softer waxes and toxins will be drawn out of the ear oxidized and turned into vapors during the procedure. The candles can be cut open from the bottom, once the procedure is completed, in order to reveal what has been removed from the ear. You'd be amazed to see what we find sometimes!
This technique can help you hear clearer, improve your sense of balance and mental clarity. Ear Candling can help relieve "Swimmer's Ear" and sinus problems. It can help headaches, ear infections, ringing in the ears, excessive wax and plugged ears. Ear Candling is gentle safe, relaxing and fascinating. This service is not meant to replace a visit to the doctor if needed; this is simply a natural and gentle method of cleansing the ears. Ear Candling is a good example of how an almost forgotten simple and natural therapy is now being used effectively to solve many problems associated with the ear. Again, this is NOT a cure for any disease or illness. You must be the ultimate judge in determining if this time-honored practice will be beneficial to you.
