The Almond Tree Practice

HOPI EAR CANDLING

Hopi Ear Candling is an ancient technique which has been used in many cultures throughout history. It involved burning ear ‘cones’ for physical and spiritual cleansing - to heal, clear the spirit, and refresh the aura.

Today, Hopi Ear Candles are hollow tubes, much like a straw and when lit, are held safely by the practitioner, upright in your outer ear. The resulting warm swirling current of herbal vapour has a massaging and soothing effect on your ear, nose and sinuses.

The treatment also includes a neck and face massage to enhance the action of the candles. It stimulates the body’s natural energy system, increases blood and lymph circulation, helps drain sinuses, and eliminates toxins. The treatment is gentle, and relaxing.

What can it help?
Hopi Ear Candling can help conditions such as:

• ‘glue ear’
• sinusitis
• excessive ear wax
• rhinitis
• headaches
• tinnitus
• snoring
• pain when flying.

Initial consultation
At the first appointment you will be asked some basic health and lifestyle questions. This will help me to tailor the treatment to your needs, and will be reviewed at each appointment. Everything will remain confidential.

Please note, although Hopi Ear Candling is very safe, clients with certain medical conditions may be asked to check with their GP before treatment. Hopi Ear Candling is not suitable for you if you have an ear infection, perforated ear drums, or 'grommets' in place.
