Also called ear coning or thermal-auricular therapy, is a holistic treatment and alternative therapy practice claimed to improve general health and well-being by lighting one end of a hollow candle and placing the other end in the ear canal.
Hopi candling involves a specially designed hollow candle to be inserted inside the ear canal. The special candle is then lit and the suction that is formed draws secretion flow is gently stimulated and the vapour collects and removes impurities or deposits.This is quite often referred to as the ‘chimney’ effect. The rising air gives the ear drum a gentle massage and also helps to regulate ear pressure. This is soothing, calming and protects the irritated areas.

Review of Hopi Ear Candles
I have tried cheaper alternatives and although expensive these are the safest to use. Others are thinner and usually 'burn' more quickly.
very good .so much easier,and quicker than having ears syringed after having to loosen wax with oil. Will,definitely purchase some more. Order Here
