HOPI EAR CANDLING
WHAT IS IT?
Thermo-auricular Therapy or Ear Candling has been used for centuries by the Hopi Indians as a means of rebalancing energy fields. These days people have realised that ear candles can offer a painless and pleasant alternative to ear syringing and, in some cases, ear surgery.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM MY TREATMENT?
Your therapist will consult with you to find your reasons for wanting the treatment and to ensure there are no contra-indications to proceeding. You will be asked to lay fully clothed on your side so that your ears can be examined with an otoscope. The ear candle is then moulded to fit the shape of your outer ear, removed, lit and re-inserted. This is a very safe procedure. Your ear is rechecked and then the other ear is treated. After this you will receive a face and sinus massage. The candles are examined to see how much residue remains and to give the therapist information on how best to continue your treatment.
