Ear Candling is based on an ancient Indian Relaxation Ceremony. A natural effective therapy inducing balance of pressure in the ears. These ear candles induce a revitalizing heat upon the head and ears, which soothes, relieves and relaxes.

Impurities are drawn up and out of the ear by the vacuum made by the flame. This vacuum also creates a tiny pulse, sending a relaxing rhythm through the fluid behind the eardrum, all around the brain and down around the spine.  Apart from the functionality of clearing the ears, candling can be a relaxing experience and even spiritual. 

The candles are made from the natural ingredients of beeswax, honey extracts, sage, St Johns Wort, chamomile, beta-carotene and organically grown flax. The candles work on a chimney principle, drawing any impurities to the surface where they can be gently removed. They equalize the pressure in the head and ears, making them suitable for most conditions. Secretion flow is gently stimulated and the vapour collects and removes impurities or deposits. Most of these are carried away through the candle "chimney", although some of them can be found in the condensed candle wax residue after removal from the ear, or could even work their way up to the surface 24-48 hours after.

Some of the common reasons clients seek candling include:

• Tinnitus, noises in the ears, ringing, 
• Relaxing and calming effect in cases of stress
• Excessive or compacted wax in the ears
• Irritation in ears and sinuses
• Pressure regulation in cases of : sinusitis/rhinitis/colds/flu/headaches/migraine
• Stimulation of local and reflex energy flow
• Energetic revitalization in cases of hearing impairment
