Hopi Ear Candling
What are hopi ear candles?
Ear candles are hollow tubes traditionally made from organicaly grown flax, honey, bee's wax and herbs. They provide a non invasive treatment of the ears, used to treat a variety of ear nose and throat conditions. They are used widely throughout Europe, America and Asia by GP's and hospitals, it can also be known as Thermal Auricular Therapy.
How do the candles work?
The way in which the ear candles work to remove ear wax or mucus in the sinuses is through the sound frequency vibration. 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.
Please note: Ear candles do not draw hard and compact ear wax up and into the ear candle. The ear candles may pull a small amount of loose or flaky earwax, dead skin cells or yeast cells from the very external part of the ear, but the residue that remains in the candle after treatment is actually beeswax and honey that has not burnt away completely. 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. This treatment is therefore detoxifying, and is still working in the body upto 48 hours after the treatment. There is also the added benefit of the herbal essences within the ear candle transferring through the skin and into the blood stream helping to relax and calm you. What type of candles are used?
The candles are called Biosun Hopi Ear candles. They are made from organic cotton, pure bee's wax, honey extract, traditional herbs such as sage, St John's Wort, camomile and pure essential oils. Biosun ear candles are regularly tested by independent institutes and are certified medical products according to EC guidelines 93/42 (EEC)

This is a sign that the body has been stimulated, and therefore encouraged toxins which may have been present for a long time to leave the body. Each individual will vary and some people will experience no ill effects at all. If you do experience some side effects do not worry this is a positive reaction to the body cleansing and re-balancing itself. Once any mild ill effects have passed you should feel in much better health.
