1. What is Ear Candling?
The accumulations withdrawn from your ears may be many months or even years old. Ear candles are custom designed from natural fibers and tapered to precise specifications. The long wax taper is inserted comfortably into the ear and lit. The smoke draws out the wax and debris through convection, where it its oxidized during the process. 2. Does Ear Candling hurt? Absolutely not! It is a painless, harmless and totally relaxing experience. If it weren't for the intermittent crackling and hissing sounds -- due to the burning of the wax and fungus being drawn up the chimney of the candle -- you would never know that anything was happening in your ear. 3. How long does an Ear Candling session last? About one hour 4. How often should I have Ear Candling done? Initially, most people need just 2 or 3 candling sessions to get their ears clean...
