It’s believed the ancient Greeks were the first to use ear candles before the practice migrated to America where native American Hopi Indians used it widely, giving this practice its modern name – Hopi Ear Candling Therapy.  The candles were used for cleansing, purifying and healing on a spiritual basis and later on a physical basis.

 

Ear candles have been used for centuries throughout North America and Asia to treat many conditions of the ear, nose and throat. The candles can also be used as a relaxing treatment to ease away the stresses of our Western culture. 
 

Some conditions that can benefit from ear candle therapy are: 

​· Compacted ear wax 
· Glue ear 
· Hay fever 
· Sore throats 
· Headaches including migraines 
· Sinusitis 
· Vertigo 
· Tinnitus 
· Colds 
 

Treatment

The candles work by vaporising their ingredients once lit, causing air-flow towards the first chamber of the ear. The candle warms the air canal and lets the vapours gently massage the eardrum and auditory canal. Once the candle is placed in the ear it forms a seal which enables the loosening of ear wax and draws other impurities out of the ear. 
 

As well as offering real benefits in a non-invasive manner for many ear, nose and throat problems, a Hopi Ear Candle treatment is a deeply relaxing, calming and soothing experience.
