Jenny Raphael Therapies

Hopi Ear Candles (some times also referred to as Thermo-auricular therapy) are a hollow woven cotton tube made using only natural ingredients with extracts of honey, pure beeswax and traditional Indian herbs.

For a treatment the client is made to feel comfortable lying on a couch; the candle is then lit and placed gently over the entrance to the auditory canal. During the burning process the ear feels pleasantly warm. The treatment is finished of with a pressure point face massage.

Recipients of the treatment sometimes fall asleep; the whole process is relaxing and non-invasive. The candles work on a chimney principle, drawing any impurities/wax to the surface where they are gently removed.

It is always important to do both ears, to satisfy the principle of balance.

Hopi Ear Candles are a gentle, non invasive treatment indicated for:

Excessive or compacted wax

Pressure regulation in cases of headache and migraine.

Irritations in the ears or sinuses.

Sinusitis, 'Glue ear' and Rhinitus.

Noises in the ear (i.e. Tinnitus)

Ear problems related to swimming, diving and water.

Relaxation and stress relief.

A treatment lasts approx 45 minutes.
