Ear candling strengthens the bodily systems through balancing the energetic system. It is used to treat tinitus, sinus problems, coughs and colds, insomnia, headaches and migraines. Also, it helps equalise ear pressure by regaining the correct tension of the eardrum, so can be very useful if you’ve been diving, flying, or skiing.
An ear candle is inserted into the ear, the heat from the flame creates a stimulating, soothing, warming effect. The mechanics of this process are energetic in nature. Adding heat to the system, in such a subtle way, results in a stimulation of lymphatic drainage; in burning off excess mucus in middle and inner ear, sinuses and nose (breathing improves); in increasing mobility and effectiveness of the white blood cells (improved immune response); also, stimulating the pituitary gland.
