About Hopi Ear Candle Therapy
Also known as Thermo-Auricular Therapy, Hopi Ear Candle treatments offer real and marked benefits for many problems and conditions associated with the ear, nose and throat areas.
Hop ear candles are named after the Native American tribe who first introduced this gentle therapy to the West. Ear candles are used widely throughout North America and Asia and although the current treatment has come to us from the Hopi tribe, the use of ear candles to treat ear problems has been known for centuries, having been used by the Egyptians, Romans and Greeks. Ear candling is an ancient and natural therapy that can be effective in removing old and troublesome blockages from the ear canal.
This therapy is widely used by doctors in Europe and America as an alternative to conventional treatments such as antibiotics, ear syringing and grommets.
How does Hopi Ear Candle Therapy work?
The candles are made from the natural ingredients of beeswax, constructed of flax, honey extracts, sage, St Johns Wort, chamomile, beta-carotene and therapeutic herbs. A constant high quality is ensured. The candles work on a chimney principle, drawing any impurities to the surface where they can be gently removed. They equalise 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.

When is Hopi Ear Candle Therapy not advisable?
No contradications are known to date but as a precaution, it is advisable not to use Hopi candles :
1. If you have an acute or chronic disease (in this case, the client's doctor should advise)
2. If you have perforated eardrum
3. If ear grommets have been fitted
4. If there is an ear infection present
5. If the ears are inflamed or infected
6. In the event of an allergic reaction to the contents
Occasionally there may be an allergic reaction to the ingredients of the candle (Beeswax, Honey, St. John's Wort, Camomile, Beta Carotene and Cotton). This can be in the form of itching, which can be relieved with eardrops.
However, most clients find the treatment relaxing and regularly describe a "slight relieved feeling" in the ears and head but also a relaxing and calming effect on the whole system.
Where long-term conditions are being treated, the client sometimes experiences slight headaches and occasional popping shortly after the treatment

After I had two attacks of diagnosed Vertigo, I decided to try out Hopi Ear Candle Treatment. After the treatment the practitioner showed me what had come out of the ears and I was surprised at what I saw and realised there was predominantly more debris in one ear compared to the other. I had 3 sessions, and I was surprised to find how relaxing the treatments actually were. I also noticed that after the treatments I had felt a change in how I felt and realised the condition had improved.
