What is the Ear Candling service??
One end of a cylinder or cone of waxed cloth is lit, and the other placed into the subject's ear. The flame is cut back occasionally with scissors and extinguished between 5 and 10 centimeters (2-4 inches) from the subject.The subject is lying on one side with the treated ear uppermost and the candle vertical. The candle can be stuck through a paper plate or aluminium pie tin to protect against any hot wax or ash falling onto the subject. Another way to perform ear candling involves the subject lying face up with the ear candle extending out to the side with a 45 degree upward slant. A dish of water is placed next to the subject under the ear candle.The flame is thought by proponents to create negative pressure, drawing wax and debris out of the ear canal,[3] which appears as a dark residue.An ear candling session lasts from 15 to 45 minutes, during which one or two ear candles may be burned for each ear.
