Ear Candling | Healing Hands Therapies

How does it work? The two action phases of candling, heat and low pressure, work together to create a gentle vacuum which leads to pressure regulation of the sinus cavities. The pressure flow carries vapors from the candle heat inwards and warms the ear walls.

This allows the pores to open and the skin can breathe. Ear wax and impurities are pulled up into the candle and are condensed and deposited in the unburned part of the candle.

During the 60 minute session a gentle massage is applied to the face and neck to stimulate a release of the sinuses and lymphatic glands, allowing them to drain.

People describe the feeling as "a release of pressure", "feeling lighter". The whole process is pleasant and a feeling of well-being is experienced.

Safe for children.
