Hopi Ear Candles

The Hopi Ear candle treatment is an ancient therapy derived from the American Indians. It induces a pleasant feeling of warmth and balance in the ear, forehead and sinuses thereby relieving tension and pressure.

Prior to treatment the therapist will look into the ear with an otoscope which enables a clear view of the ear drum and therefore it can be established whether there is compacted wax or any infections within the ear. The Hopi Ear Candle treatment works by placing a tubular candle made from cotton, honey extracts, beeswax, traditional herbs (Sage, Chamomile and St John's Wort) into the ear. The burning action of the candle infuses the herbs and essential oils into a vapour, which is drawn into the auditory canal. This performs a massaging function as well as softening any impurities. The candle then acts as a chimney drawing away the vapour and any impurities from the ear. Only BIOSUN candles are used by headandfoot. An optional facial massage can be performed at the end of a treatment to help clear sinuses and relax facial muscles.
