EAR CANDLING
Ear candles are used to cleanse and harmonize the different energy fields of the individual (the aura) in preparation for the state of trance and to drive out negative energies.
Ear candles are a clearing therapy and are used very successfully for many problems associated with the ears and the head area. The lymph system and metabolism can be influenced by this intensive, pleasant and completely painless method of operation.
The process involves the use of a hollow candle with the narrow end held gently onto the edge of the ear. The flame creates a relative vacuum in the ear which draws out poisons, old wax, residues of past infection and fungus. It will also pull out fluid, right through the membrane of the inner ear. The ceremonious glands of the ear are constantly secreting wax and candida grows prolifically in the ear because it is a dark, moist area - a perfect place for mould to grow.
This ancient remedy was used by the Egyptians, Chinese, Greeks and the Hopi Indians of North America and is now widely used in many countries throughout the modern world. Each candle is still carefully made by hand from the traditional recipe, using linen in its natural form and honey extracts. Locally administered heat stimulates the peripheral blood circulation, thus intensifying the immunological defense system, in addition to strengthening the cleansing circulation of the lymph glands. Stimulation also occurs to the energy points and reflex zones.
The excessive build-up of earwax, impacted plugs and candida fungus can cause hearing problems, infections and discomfort in the ears. Hearing impairment often creates distress and frustration, which in some children can even have an effect on their learning ability and speech.
The Hopi Indians of North America have long understood the problems associated with this build-up in the ears and developed a soft wax tube that they inserted in each ear in turn. A heat vacuum is created, drawing material from the ear up into the candle, where it is then evaporated in the flame.
Candling provides the ears with deep cleansing, removing wax and debris build-up that is normally difficult to reach. It is non-invasive and gentle and is recommended for both children and adults.
Ear candling may obtain beneficial results in the following cases:
Fungal problems.
Excessive wax build up.
Sinus irritation.
Toxic residue from medications.
Glue ear or swim ear.
Nose bleeding problems.
Foggy head.
Before taking a flight.
Earaches
In case of ear infection or suspected ear infection it is recommended that medical advice be sought. Once infection is clear than ear candling can be performed and with regular application may help in the prevention of further infections. In the prevention of ear infections treatments once a week for a month and then once a month thereafter maybe helpful. Treatments can be gradually reduced as ear problems decrease.

What To Expect During An Ear Candling Session . . .
During an Ear Candling session you lie on your side with your body in a straight alignment. A special conical candle is inserted into a protective plate . . . The candle is lit and slowly begins to burn. The small tapered end of the candle is gently placed into your ear canal. The ear candle -- by its shape, design and length -- draws ear wax and fungus deposits from deep inside your ear canal.
As the ear candling session progresses, extracted ear wax and fungus will be burned off, but a majority will be collected in the bottom part of the candle. After the candle has burned down and been extinguished, the therapist will cut open the remnant and show you the former contents of your ear canal. Most people cannot believe what has been collected there! Expect to be amazed!
I've never had an ear candling before . . . isn't it painful? No, there is no pain whatsoever. You will only feel the candle being carefully inserted in your ear. You may also hear some crackling and popping, as the ear wax is being pulled from within your ear. All you have to do is just relax and enjoy your ear candling session time . . .
If you have excessive hearing loss, you may feel some heat during the ear candling session since your feeling (tactile) senses are keener than a person with relatively better hearing. If you are one of these people . . . and you experience some discomfort -- you may request that the therapist stop the procedure briefly -- after a short intermission, you can continue with your session.
What Happens After An Ear Candling Session . . .
For a short time after your ear candling session . . . you may feel a lightness in your head and noises may seem to be much louder to you. This can be relieved by putting a little ear oil on some cotton and inserting this in each of your ears. You will most likely notice improved hearing, because the wax blockage is no longer present in your ears . . .
For a day or two after your ear candling session you may feel a warmth, or some itching in your ears. This is very easy to resolve. . .
You can relieve the itching by simply putting a drop or two of Hydrogen Peroxide in your ears and then gently wipe them out with a cotton swab. Or if you prefer, use the same procedure, but with Echinacea liquid instead of the Hydrogen Peroxide.
You may also notice your sinuses are draining, or that sinus drainage increases after your ear candling session. This is beneficial and will relieve the pressure in your sinus areas. If you have had occurrences of sinus headaches, you should experience a decrease in their frequency. Also you may experience a heightened sense of taste, smell and sight.

An ear candling session every 6 months would certainly be practical and beneficial.
