Ear Candling including Lymphatic Facial Drainage with Facial Cupping , Facial
Reflexology &Mini Head Massage
Hopi Ear Candling (also known as Thermal Auricular Therapy) is a pleasant
and non-invasive treatment of the ears, used to treat a variety of
conditions. The ear candles induce a revitalising heat upon the head and
ears, which soothes, relieves and relaxes. It is a deeply relaxing and calming
treatment in cases of anxiety and stress.
It is an ancient and natural therapy handed down by many civilisations.
The candles work on a chimney principle, drawing any impurities to the
surface where they can be gently removed. They balance 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. The lymph system and metabolism are improved.
Psychological and spiritual benefits have also been associated with the
treatment
Each candle is made of organically grown cotton which has been dipped
in honey, beeswax and therapeutic essential oils including camomile, sage
and St John’s Wort.
What to Expect
Following an initial consultation, the client will be asked to lie on their side
on a comfortable plint. The practitioner then gently and carefully inserts a
candle into the ear opening. The candle will be lit and the essential oils
from it infuse into the ear. A low-level vacuum generated will draw ear wax
and other loose matter out of the ear cavity and into the end of hollow
candle.
You will experience a pleasant crackling sound as the candle burns and a
warm comfortable feeling. When the ear candling procedure is complete a
waxy substance is normally left inside the base of the candle. Nothing is
removed from the ear during the treatment but some may find a slight
discharge from the ear afterwards as compacted ear wax may become
lose and drain away. The practitioner will following with a lymphatic
drainage around the lymph nodes of the neck and face with Facial
Cupping and finish by grounding the client with a mini head massage.
This therapy is not suitable for people that have had recent ear surgery, or
