Ear candling is not a new therapy.

Dating back to the year 2500 BC,
there is evidence showing that
people used ear candling and 
ancient cultures, including
Egyptians, made a reference
to its use.  Parchment scrolls
discovered in the Orient, also
have described this procedure 
as ear coning.

Through a process called "convection", softer waxes and toxins will be drawn out of the ear, oxidized and turned into vapors. Ear candles are handmade from beeswax and unbleached cotton cloth.  These specially fabricated candles are typically nine (9) to twelve (12) inches long and burn time will vary depending on the amount of wax buildup.  The use of two candles per ear for heavier amounts of wax buildup. This simple and time-proven therapy can be very effective in removing old and troublesome blockages from the ear canal without the use of solutions or probes. Many people attest to the value of ear candling in cleansing the ear canals and sinus passages.

PROCEDURE: During a candling session you will lie on your side with your body in a straight alignment. A candle is inserted into a protective plate.  The candle is lit and the tapered end of the candle is gently placed into the ear canal.  As the session progresses, extracted ear wax and fungus will be burned off, but a majority will be collected in the bottom part of the candle.  After the candle has burned down and been extinguished, the therapist may cut open the remnant and show you any remainig unburnt residue from your ear canal.
