Hopi Ear Candles

Course review:

The Candles, which are cylindrical with hollow centres, are made of natural substances such as honey, beeswax and medicinal herbs. They are lit and inserted in the ear and are used both to aid cleansing of the ear and to regulate the pressure system in the inner ear. The treatment can be used for many conditions including; headaches, migraines, sinusitis, rhinitis and tinnitus. Snoring can be reduced and children suffering from glue ear can be helped.
