Overview
Hopi Ear Candling (or Thermo-Auricular Therapy) is a deeply relaxing, calming and soothing treatment offering real and marked benefits for many problems and conditions associated with the ear, nose and throat areas. Ear candles are an ancient, mild and natural therapy and have been used by the Native American Indian for many years.
Quite different from conventional wax candles that burn from a lit wick that runs up the centre of the candle, a Hopi ear candle is actually a cotton tube, impregnated with beeswax, honey and therapeutic oils, that is painlessly inserted into the ear to draw out impurities, relieve pressure in the head and sinuses, and aid hearing problems
By the end of this course, the student will be able to safely and competently harness the healing properties of the Hopi Ear Candle.
