Ear Candling

• The person doing the candling inspects the ear to determine its condition.
• The person getting candled lies to one side and a cover for protection is placed over the head area.
• The sinus and ear area is rubbed in order to loosen up wax and waste.
• The candle is lit and pushed into the outer ear canal.
• When the candle is placed into the ear canal, this forms suction almost like a vacuum.
• The warming of the ear canal can cause a crackling noise, similar to when you clean your ears out with hydrogen peroxide.
• This process can take one to two hours and can use approximately three candles for each ear.
