Get answers to common questions about Ear Candling.

You'll lie comfortably while a certified therapist positions a hollow candle near the ear. Gentle warming creates a calming ritual; we monitor throughout. Sessions last about 30-45 minutes, including consultation and aftercare tips to maximize comfort and results.

Ear candling is non-invasive but not suitable for children under certain ages, people with perforated eardrums, active infections, or recent ear surgery. We perform a pre-screening consultation to assess suitability and explain any potential risks before proceeding.

Frequency varies—many clients benefit from monthly sessions for ongoing support, while some choose quarterly visits. Your therapist will recommend a personalized plan based on ear health, symptoms, and response to treatment during the initial consultation.

Many clients report clearer auditory perception and reduced blockage, but results vary. Ear candling supports natural cleansing rather than forceful extraction. If you have significant impaction, we may recommend medical evaluation or professional ear irrigation for complete removal.

This holistic ritual can support sinus drainage and relieve mild pressure by promoting gentle thermal effects and relaxation, which may reduce congestion symptoms. It complements but doesn't replace medical sinus treatments; consult your healthcare provider for persistent or severe sinus issues.

Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin and avoid loud music or heavy earphones beforehand. Inform us of medications, recent ear issues, or surgeries. Plan to rest for a short period after the session to enjoy full relaxation and any immediate benefits.
