If you suffer from congested sinuses, colds, flu, headaches and migraines, Thermo-Auricular Therapy, or as it is more commonly known Hopi Ear Candle, could be the ideal solution. Hopi Ear Candles are hollow tubes made of cotton, soaked in beeswax, honey and herbs. When lit, the candle acts like a chimney, causing warm air inside it to rise, creating a vacuum at the bottom. This vacuum gently stimulates the ear, facilitating removal of excess wax and impurities. The candle does not suck wax out of the ear, rather it stimulates the ear to eliminate the wax naturally, ensuring maximum safety. A soothing, relaxing and very gentle treatment that will leave you with a sense of well-being and reduced pressure in the ears or head. An improved sense of hearing or freer nasal breathing is immediately experienced and this continues to improve for a day or two after the treatment.
Note: this treatment should not be used if grommets are in place, the ear is infected, the ear drum is perforated or you are allergic to any of the candle’s components.
