What is the primary purpose of Ear Candling? Does it have a therapeutic or medical basis?
Ear Candling is a pleasant non-invasive treatment that can help to promote an enhanced state of health. It is used primarily to relieve conditions in the head and ear area, such as sinus problem, compacted ear wax, tinnitus and headaches or simply as an enjoyable means of relieving stress. Research indicates that ear candling has a beneficial effect on the subtle energy helping to calm and revitalize the chakras. Some medical practices are using ear candling as an alternative to syringing for the treatment of excessive earwax – this is because, in some cases, syringing can perforate the eardrum.
