How does Hopi Ear Candling work?
You will lay fully clothed on your side, with your head supported on a pillow. The ear candle is then placed gently and painlessly into your ear. During the appointment, both ears will be treated.
The candle is a hollow tube, made of unbleached cotton which is coated with gorgeous natural elements such as honey, beeswax and herbs. The candles contain ingredients that soothe, calm, and relax and also anti-inflammatory.
Once placed in the ear the candle is lit and a light vacuum effect is created between the candle and ear. You may hear a crackling or popping sound whilst the candle is burning. The vapours from the herbs are infused and drawn into the ear canal creating a soothing, massaging effect whilst softening any impurities.
Following your ear candling treatment you will receive a wonderful and relaxing facial and lymphatic drainage massage. This further helps to release any blockages in your ears and sinuses. It also aids circulation and increases the flow of energy.
The original BIOSUN Ear candles are used which are ‘calming, relaxing and energising.’
What are the benefits to Hopi Ear Candles.
Thermal-auricular therapy
Hopi Ear Candles can benefit conditions affecting the head and ears such as sinus congestion, ear noises and excessive earwax.
The rising air through the column of the candle and gentle natural movement of the flame serve to gently massage the ear drum. This has an immediate subjective effect of regulating ear pressure. Users often describe a soothing, light sensation in the ear/head area and a general calming, relaxing effect.
It is often used by people with:
Tinnitus
Sinusitis
Glue ear
Hayfever and Rhinitis
Excessive ear wax
Colds
Tension headaches
Stress
Many people report an enhanced sense of smell and hearing which might take a few minutes to adjust to.
