Hopi Ear Candle

Therapy

Ear candles have been used traditionally by Shaman Healers of indigenous tribes since ancient times. The Hopi are a Native American people from Arizona, USA who handed down the tradition of ear candle healing (or Thermo-Auricular Therapy). The Hopi used the candles to induce a trance like feeling in their initiation rituals.
More recently 'BioSun' brought this knowledge of ear candle therapy to Europe where they are used to cleanse and harmonise the energy fields in the aura. The candles are a gentle and natural alternative to ear syringing. The gentle warmth transmitted from the ear candle helps soothe pain and discomfort in the ear.


'Biosun' Ear Candles are handmade and of high quality

To ensure your safety and comfort during this fascinating and pleasant experience, I use only 'Biosun' Hopi ear candles that are hand made with the finest natural ingredients and filter. Each candle consists of a pesticide-free cotton tube impregnated with 100% pure beeswax, honey extract and herbs. The ear candle contains Sage for its antiseptic and anti inflammatory properties, Chamomile to soothe, St Johns Wort to balance, and pure essential oils. Unlike some cheaper makes of ear candle, there is no danger of receiving a burn from either melting wax or the very fine residual ash.


Ear Candle Treatment

As the ear candle burns, the ingredients in the cotton vaporise and are drawn down the hollow centre of the candle. A light suction action via a 'chimney effect' and the movement of the flame create a vibration of air in the ear candle, generating a massage-like effect on the eardrum. Impurities are drawn out of the ear, by the burning of the candle and either burned away, collected in the filter or brought to the surface where they can be wiped away. It is strongly advised to treat both ears, each with a new ear candle one after the other. Listening to some soft relaxing music during treatment and having a gentle facial massage over the sinuses performed towards the end, adds to the effectiveness of the result and the overall experience.


Indications for use

Hopi Ear Candles are useful for sufferers of the following conditions:

Excess or compacted ear wax
Headaches and Migraine
Hay fever
Rhinitis
Sinusitis
Neuralgia

Treatment promotes draining the sinuses, reinforcing lymph action and blood flow.
Ear Candling is also a great treatment to de-stress or to assist recovery from a cold or 'flu. The aromatherapy effects of the candle promote relaxation, stress reduction and helps clear the head.
