                                                                            How  The  Ear  Candle  Works

Really simple. The ear candle is a hollow tube. When you light it, the flame sucks air and causes a vacuum.

                                                                                The  Flame  Only  Goes  Up

Some people are worried about the flame above their head. Heat only raises so you are totally safe. Also as there is a vacuum, nothing can fall back down into the ear.

                                                            So  Why  Does  The  Body  Produce  Ear  Wax ?

We get asked this a lot at the markets. Think of the ear drum like the skin of a drum, that vibrates when sound comes into the ear. Now for it to vibrate it has to be flexible, so the body produces ear wax to lubricate the ear drum.

                                                           The  Ears  Are  Supposed  To  Be  Self  Cleaning

Another reason why the body produces ear wax is when dirt or dust enters the ear it lands on the wax and the whole lot is supposed to slide out. The ear canal produces wax as well. That's the theory anyway.

                                            One  Way  To  Help  The  Self  Cleaning  Is  With  Ear  Drops

We have a optional and extra product called "Wax Out". It's other wise known as ear wax remover or ear drops. It softens and dissolves hard dry ear wax and if used twice a day for 2 - 3 days and then use ear candles, you should get a better result. Or you can use the ear drops by themselves and it should help with the self cleaning.


                                                If   Your  Have  Had  A  Blocked  Ear For More Than  2 Weeks

If you have had a blocked ear for over 2 weeks , you might need to use ear wax remover or ear drops twice a day for 2-3 days first which dissolves hard dry ear wax and then use ear candles.



                                                                   When  We  Can  Not Do  Ear  Candling

A child or adult with medically fitted grommets

First 3 months of pregnancy.

Burst or hole in the ear drum.

After surgery of the ear drum, when it hasn't finished healing.

Fluid coming out of the ear.

If you have any of the above and are having wax build up problems you can use either a hot water bottle or a wheat bag wrapped in a towel and lay your ear on it. Not as good as a ear candle, but the next best thing. The heat will melt the wax and might - should ease the pain. Just the thing for a screaming kid at 2 or 3 in the morning. It's what our grandparents used to do. If you have ear pain or any other ear condition that you are not happy about consult your Doctor or Pharmacist.
