HISTORY OF HOPI EAR CANDLES
History traces the ear candle back to the native pueblo Indians of North American-the Hopi Indians from where they get their name.
The Hopi Indians were and are a peaceful tribe who live in harmony with each other and the environment. Their religion includes nature worship and they have many ceremonies including snake dance (a rain dance), which is considered one of the most spectacular of all Native American ceremonies.
Their great knowledge of natural healing and deep spirituality is rapidly gaining respect in the contemporary world. The ear candle is part of their many ancient natural therapies, used on both a physical healing and spiritual basis, and wall paintings show their importance in initiation rituals and healing ceremonies of the five clan of the Hopi people

INDICATIONS OF THE CANDLES
Traditionally the ear candles are used to cleanse and harmonise different energy fields of the individual to prepare them for a state of trance and drive out negative energies in a time when healing and spirituality went hand in hand
Today the ear candles have been used successfully for a number of problems relating to the head and ears:-
Irritation of the ears or sinuses- hay fever
Excessive or compacted wax in the ears
Headaches
Migraines
Sinusitis
Rhinitis (Hay fever)
Glue ear
Colds/Flu
Activate blood flow, lymphatic system and metabolic process
Stimulation of local and reflex energies
Revitalisation in cases of hearing impairment
Relaxing and calming- stress related
Ringing in the ear (tinnitus)
Helps balance fluids- Vertigo- Menieres syndrome
As with many complimentary therapies- experience will show that other problems can be helped- each individual person finding their own gain- sleep problems have been helped in the past-maybe also to the relaxed state induced by the treatment. Clarity of thought- due again perhaps to the relaxed state and ability to talk to the therapist involved.
Hopi ear candles are not a medication and are for external use only. The indications are supported by many years experience by practitioners but do not constitute a guarantee. If symptoms persist you should consult a doctor.
HOW DO THE CANDLES WORK?
The candle, which is hollow, works like a chimney. The flame warms the ear canal, loosening any debris with in it and causes a mild vacuum effect which draws out impurities into the lower section of the candle. The vibration caused by the rising air will gently massage the ear-drum. This will help to regulate the pressure involved giving what has been described as a ‘lighter feeling’ in the ear and head areas.
The flow of air circulates a concentrated vapour of the herbal extracts, smoothing, calming and protecting the irritated areas. The warmth of the flow stimulates the circulatory systems and increases immune defence and cleansing. It also stimulates energy and reflex points.
The process gently increases natural secretion, which can continue to have an effect up to 24-48 hours later.
RECOMMENDED TREATMENT PLANS
For symptoms related treatments, it is advisable to have a treatment 1-2 times a week for 4-6 weeks and then review the plan. If symptoms are relieved, then a maintenance treatment every 3-4 weeks should be advised.
For cleansing and prevention of symptoms then 1 treatment every 3-4 weeks would be offered.
