What are Hopi Ear Candles?

Many people are discovering the benefits of using Hopi Ear Candles for a wide range of conditions associated with the ear, nose and throat. Use of this treatment can bring relief from discomfort associated with earwax build up, sinus congestion, pressure in the ears and much, much more.

I use the highest quality candles. These are the Original Biosun Hopi Ear Candles that are made to the original Hopi Indian recipe in Germany. The ingredients include pure beeswax, honey extracts and organic cotton. These are combined with the powdered herbs that are well known for their healing properties.

The candles contain:

• Camomile - anti-inflammatory
• St John's Wort - restorative tonic for the nervous system and analgesic
• Sage - Circulatory stimulant which relaxes peripheral blood vessels

The candles contain the exclusive cross-shaped barrier, which prevent any liquid wax or excess condensation from entering the ear. This barrier is eco friendly.

How do Hopi Ear Candles work?

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 the treatment is repeated on the other ear.

The number of treatments depends on how long the candle takes to burn down. Each treatment takes approximately 45 - 60 minutes and is very relaxing.

What are the benefits of using Hopi Ear Candles?

Hopi 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.

It is not suitable for those with perforated eardrums, where grommets are in place or those who may have an allergy to the ingredients. It is a safe and gentle treatment for children.
