ear candle therapyear candle therapy

Originating from the Hopi Indians who have a great medicinal knowledge. The hollow candles consist of beeswax, honey, pure unbleached organic cotton, Vitamin A and traditional herbs such as St John’s Wort, Chamomile and Sage. It is an excellent therapy for relieving symptoms of sinus pressure, headaches, snoring, itchy ears, excessive earwax, blocked nose, insomnia. It can also be very beneficial to have a treatment before flying to reduce sore ears. Also for people who partake in scuba diving or water sports.

How do they work? These candles work by the warmth and vapours released from the candle, gently massaging the eardrum by gentle suction at the base which helps to loosen compacted earwax. As the ear, nose, sinuses and throat are all interconnected; this has the effect of regulating and balancing pressure in the ears and upper respiratory tract.
