Information About Ear Candling

Ear candling has been around for centuries and originated in ancient civilizations such as China, India and Egypt. The Native American culture, such as the Aztec and Mayan civilizations used ear candling in healing and purification before initiation rites.

An ear candle, sometimes called an ear cone, is a long hollow tube tapered to a hand-finished tip that fits comfortably into the ear. The large end of the candle is lit and the smoke gently dislodges foreign debris, softens old ear wax and helps to evaporate excess moisture. This is believed to relieve ear ache pain, provide relief from the pressure in the sinuses and allow the ear to naturally push out the ear wax.

The ear candling process is also believed to detoxify the lymphatic system and clear the sinuses, which can also improve the clarity of hearing, sight, smell and taste. More subtle changes may occur on an energy level resulting in greater emotional stability and an overall sense of well-being.

Using ear candles is generally more comfortable and less expensive than conventional methods, which can be painful. Ear candling is a non-invasive peaceful, relaxing and actually quite pleasant experience.
