Ear Candles

Ear candles are hollow cones made of fabric covered in soy, bees or paraffin wax. Generally up to a foot in length. The pointed end is placed in your ear, the slightly wider end is then lit. This treatment, also called ear candling, works with the warmth created by the flame causing suction which pulls earwax and other impurities out of the ear canal, into the hollow candle. To prepare for the procedure, you lie on your side with one ear facing down. The therapist inserts the pointed end of the candle into the hole of the ear that’s facing up and adjusts it to create a seal.
