Thermo – Auricular Therapy (Hopi Candles)

Hopi Indian Ear Candling, is an ancient form of treatment which was used by the North American Indians. The hollow cylindrical candles are made of natural substances such as valuable honey extracts, 100% pure beeswax, crushed traditional Indian medicinal herbs (mainly Sage and Chamomile), beta carotene and a pesticide free woven cotton. They are used to both cleanse the ear and regulate the pressure system in the inner ear.

It is an intensive but pleasant and completely painless method of dealing with irritations in the ear. I always include a face and head massage to enhance the effectiveness of the candles. This treatment is 30 – 40 minutes of pure relaxation.

Some conditions that are treatable are; headaches, migraines, sinusitis, rhinitis and tinnitus. Snoring can be reduced and children suffering from glue ear can be helped.
