How it works

With the ear candle inserted into the ear the heat from the flame creates a stimulating, soothing warming effect to the tissues in an d around the ear. The mechanics of this process are partly physical and partly energetic in nature. The result is a stimulation of lymphatic drainage in the entire head and neck region. The Eustachian tubes open and relax, allowing improved drainage and pressure equalization. The sinuses are then triggered to start draining. The body’s disease fighting immune response is greatly enhanced in strength. This means quicker recovery and a rapid decrease in symptom severity from many illnesses.
