Hopi Ear Candles – Thermo Auricular Therapy

Hopi Indians are the oldest tribe in North America. Ear candles have been used in Hopi healing rituals for centuries. Powerful, deeply relaxing and revitalising, invigorates the immune system and reinforces the flow to the lymph and natural. The Hopi candle is not a candle as such, but a hollow tube made out of cotton flax. To stiffen the flax, they are impregnated with extract of honey and herb oils (in particular chamomile, sage and St Johns Wort), the healing properties of which have been known to the Hopi tribe for hundreds of years.

The treatment is very gentle and relaxing and may take up to an hour, depending on the condition being treated. The candle is placed over the ear orifice and ignited. It is only allowed to burn to within 4 inches of the end of the candle. As it burns it produces a gentle local heat. The warm air combined with the oil and herbs soften the wax and draw it into the base of the candle. The candle is then removed and the ear and surrounding area is then massaged. The treatment is repeated on the other ear sometimes a facial massage is carried out to complete the treatment. Ear candles can help with the treatment of sinusitis, rhinitis, earwax, earache and irritation of the ears including tinnitus. It is also suitable for the treatment of headaches and migraines.
