Details of Ear Candling...for the world...

haha Kelly. Okay, a little history lesson :)

The process involves the use of a hollow candle with the narrow end held gently onto the edge of the ear. They set the top of the "candle" on fire. The flame creates a relative vacuum in the ear which draws out poisons, old wax, residues of past infection and fungus. It will also pull out fluid, right through the membrane of the inner ear. As it burns down you will hear a lot of cracking and hissing which is the process of removing the wax etc. The warmth feels soothing and relaxing during the process. The ceruminous glands of the ear are constantly secreting wax and candida grows prolifically in the ear because it is a dark, moist area - a perfect place for mould to grow.

Kinda weird, but it works.
