What will happen?
The therapist will inspect your ear to check for existing ear infections, blockages and to understand better what you are experiencing in order to monitor progress of the treatments and provide appropriate advice.
A candle is then lit and placed inside the ear, the non-burning end is inside the ear passage. As the candle burns, it creates a light suction action which in turn gently massages the eardrum, drawing out secretions and blockages.
The warmth and the ingredients in the candle:
* Stimulate both the lymphatic circulation and the immune system in and around the ear
* Helps to balance the fluids and pressure in the ear
* Reduces pain, headaches and nausea arising from imbalances.
When both ears have been treated, the client will be asked to lie on their back while they receive a lymphatic neck and ear massage to help clear the toxins.
At the end of the session the client can see the contents that have been cleaned out of their ear, this also allows the practitioner to decide how many future treatments the client should have.
Candles
The Hopi Ear Candles used in my Thermo Auricular Therapy are Biosun candles. They are specially designed – with safety features – for this type of therapy. Biosun candles are made from linen, pure beeswax, honey extract, traditional herbs such as St John’s Wort, Chamomile and Sage and essential oils.
