HOPI EAR CANDLES  - Thermal Auricular Therapy

​

Ear candles are an ancient and natural therapy handed down by many civilisations. They were used as far afield as Asia, the Siberian prairies and, most notably, native America.

​

It is believed that the Ancient Greeks used ear candles, initially for cleansing, purifying and healing on a spiritual basis, but then, much later, on a purely physical basis. The practice reached the modern world via the native North American Hopi Indians. Ear candles were used traditionally by Shaman healers. Ancient wall paintings (such as those found within the caves of the Grand Canyon) show the importance of ear candling in initiation rituals and healing ceremonies of the tribe members.

​

How Thermal Auricular Therapy Works

The candles and cones used are spiral shaped, and made from natural ingredients such as beeswax, honey extracts and essential oils.

​

Ear candling looks to remove blockages within the ear canal without the need for syringes or solutions, but also works better as a preventative measure.The spiral shape of the cone causes air to be pulled down into the ear.
As it burns, the cone's ingredients turn to vapour and the airflow creates a vibrational effect. Warmth, vibration and vapour massage the ear-canal, breaking down any blockages. Wax, toxins and impurities are then drawn out by suction from the heat and vacuum affect.
