Thermo-Auricular Therapy

Hopi Ear Candling for Top To Toe Health
Ear candling is an ancient art used by many civilisations for its healing benefits.

Hopi Ear Candles are named for the Hopi Native American Indians. Hopi means "peace" and the Shamanic healers used the candles to aid them on their spiritual journeys.

In the UK today we offer Thermo-Auricular Therapy for a variety of ear, nose and throat complaints including:

Sinusitis, rhinitis, hay fever, tinnitus, migraine, headaches, vertigo, labrynthitis, menieres disease, glue ear, some hearing difficulties, sore throats, catarrh, ear wax and itchy ears. It is also helps to regulate ear pressure so is useful for divers and frequent flyers. It is relaxing and calming so wonderful for stress.

The candles are made of organic flax dipped in beeswax and honey and infused with healing herbs such as sage, camomile and St.John's Wort. The ear candles that Allison uses are a class 1 medical device with an EC kitemark to assure quality, safety and consistency.

During a treatment Allison will ensure that the client is relaxing in a safe, warm environment and then treat each ear individually. Both ears are always treated. The candle burns down imparting a soothing warmth as the smoke infused with the healing herbs is drawn into the ear canal. Impurities are then drawn up into the base of the candle, evaporate into the smoke as it burns away or drain from the ear over the next few days.
When the candle is removed Allison will work on the reflexes of the ear to promote healing throughout the body. When both ears have been treated Allison will offer a sinus and head massage or hand or foot reflexology depending on the client's condition and preference. It is important to remain relaxing on the couch for ten to fifteen minutes following treatment to optimise the results. A glass of water is then offered, the act of swallowing opens and closes the eustachian tube helping to regulate the ear pressure.

After the treatment the sense of balance and peace should remain for some time.
Occasionally one treatment is sufficient but often a short course of treatment is recommended depending on the condition and how long the client has suffered.
Thermo-Auricular Therapy is recommended for everyone at the change of each season to help the body to adjust.
