Hopi Ear Candles are named after the Native American tribe who first introduced this gentle therapy to the West. The translation of the word Hopi means "peaceful ones". Ear candles have been used for centuries by the Egyptians, Romans and Greeks.

What is a Hopi Ear Candle?
The Hopi candle is not a candle as such, but a hollow tube made out of cotton flax. To stiffen the flax, they are impregnated with extract of honey and herb oils the healing properties of which have been known to the Hopi tribe for hundreds of years.

The treatment is very gentle and relaxing. The candle is placed over the ear orifice and ignited. It is only allowed to burn to within 4 inches of the end of the candle. As it burns it produces a gentle local heat. The warm air combined with the oil and herbs soften the wax and draw it into the base of the candle. The candle is then removed and treatment is repeated on the other ear. The treatment includes a complementary facial and auricular accupressure massage and reiki.

What Conditions Can Ear Candles Help?
Ear candles can help with the treatment of sinusitis, rhinitis, earwax, earache and irritation of the ears including tinnitus. It is also suitable for the treatment of headaches and migraines.
