Hopi Ear Candling
(Thermo-auricular Therapy)

 

    W h a t   i s   H o p i   E a r   C a n d l i n g ?

Hopi Ear Candling is a natural and safer alternative to ear syringing. It is an ancient natural therapy dating back to 2500 BC.

The candles are made from pure unbleached cotton and contain honey extracts, chamomile and sage to soothe, calm and heal as well providing a sense of relaxation and wellbeing 

The candles also contain Vitamin A which fights infection and strengthens the immune system

The ‘chimney effect’ of the hollow candles draws out impurities and compacted wax from the ear canal whilst the warm vapours of the chamomile and sage will massage the eardrum and help regulate the pressures within the ear, face, head and sinuses. 

If the wax is deeply impacted it may take a number of sessions to completely clear the ear but this can be discussed with the therapist at the end of your first treatment. 

The treatment is followed by a gentle soothing facial massage to help drain the sinuses and encourage lymph and blood flow.

On your first visit your therapist will do a full consultation to discuss the reason for your treatment and to ensure that a treatment is suitable.

You will then lie on your side on the massage table, fully clothed with your head on a pillow.  The candles are hollow tubes 22cms long with a filter at one end.  The candle with then be lit and the filter end placed gently into the outer ear. You may then experience a gentle warming sensation and possible some light ‘crackling’ as the candle starts to draw out the impurities. 

Both ears must be treated in order to balance the pressure on each side. 

The therapist will check that you are warm and comfortable at all times.

The treatment will last for 45 minutes.
