Hopi Ear Candles
Hopi ear candling is a deeply relaxing and detoxifying treatment that can aid in the treatment of conditions such as tinnitus, excessive ear wax, ear pain and improving pressure, equilibrium, in the inner ear. The placing of the candle in the ear creates a light suction action (chimney effect) and the movement of the flame create a vibration of air in the ear candle, generating a massage-like effect on the eardrum. The sound of the flame creates a vibration that travels through the ear candle penetrating the eardrum which in turn vibrates the inner ear bones at such a frequency it is like an inner ear massage. This then pushes further into the eustachian tubes and the sinuses helping to push out any blocked pressure.
The heat from the ear candle and the vibration help to soften and break up any ear wax or mucus that is blocking the head and ears, and once broken down the body finds it easier to flush the waste through the lymphatic system.
The Hopi Ear Candles can be used a stand alone treatment or can be used as part of a massage or reflexology treatment.
