What is ear candling?
Ear candling is a non-invasive holistic practice, a thermal-auricular therapy, that involves placing a specially designed hollow candle into the ear canal. The person who receives the ear candling lies down while the therapist holds the candle in place. Then the candle is lit, then a gentle vacuum effect is created and it helps to remove excess earwax and debris, bringing a soothing feeling. The suction created by the fire helps to pull the earwax and other impure elements out of the ear canal and into the hollow candle.
