Ear Candling
Ear Candling has anecdotal evidence of helping people with the following: sinus congestion, colds, flu, sore throats, earaches, ear infections, sinus infections, swollen glands, hayfever, balance and equilibrium, allergy symptoms, pain or discomfort when flying or scuba diving.
Ear Candling is a centuries old method of bringing an enhanced state of health to the ear, nose, throat and sinus area. When the Ear Candle is inserted into the ear, the heat from the flame creates a stimulating, soothing, warming effect. The mechanics of this process are energetic - adding heat in such a subtle way, results in a stimulation of lymphatic drainage - in burning off excess mucus in the middle and inner ear, breathing improves via the sinuses and nose.
Ear Candles are not medical devices therefore, they can’t remove objects, including wax from the ear. Ear Candles do NOT create a vacuum. They create a vortex which is a big difference. Please see Patrick Quantens research at www.earcandling.info if you are interested in reading a more detailed account of how the candles work.
Most people find this treatment a deeply relaxing experience. Ear candling should never hurt. How many sessions will be dependant upon your initial complaint and how long it has prevailed - ear candling benefits from repeat treatments. If appropriate, I also sell candles to be administered at home but you will need someone to do this for you! The candles I use are made of the finest ingredients; they are hand crafted and made of unbleached muslin and the highest quality food grade wax. I have a selection of candles which also contain essential oils to help with headaches, sinus congestion and hayfever.
