HOPI EAR CANDLING
Ear candling – or thermo-auricular therapy as it is also known - refers to an ancient,
non-invasive complementary therapy designed to help treat conditions
associated with the ear, nose and throat.
Overview
Ear candling – or thermo-auricular therapy as it is also known - refers to an ancient, non-invasive complementary therapy designed to help treat conditions associated with the ear, nose and throat.
It is a technique that involves placing a hollow, cone-shaped tube (or ‘candle’) made of cotton, soaked in beeswax, honey and herbs into the ear canal in order to help relieve conditions such as sinus problems, tinnitus and headaches. Snoring can be reduced and children suffering from glue ear can be helped. Ear candling can also be used to promote deep relaxation and is thought to have therapeutic benefits which can help to relieve stress and revitalise the body.
Although it has been used for thousands of years around the world, ear candling has only recently been introduced by the NHS for use alongside conventional medical treatments such as grommets, antibiotics and ear syringing.
