This treatment involves a pair of hollow tubes made from cotton, linen or hemp and sprayed with beeswax and infused with honey and herbs, which are inserted into the ears. The candles used are certified medical products under EC guidelines, thus they’ve been thoroughly tested and are safe for regular use. The burning of these candles takes about 15 minutes for each ear, and will gradually improve your hearing. An ear candling treatment is recommended every six months to extract excess ear wax.
