POSITIVE HEALING

Hopi Ear Candle Therapy origionates among the people of the Siberian Prairies, Asia and the Native Americans (Hopi tribe).

It is a popular therapy that helps relieve earache, headaches, ear noise, sinus problems, freer nasal breathing, stress and nervousness. The candles used are hollow tubes of woven flax made in the traditional way with a combination of:

• Honey - honey and bee pollen products have been clinically shown to help sufferers of hayfever (allergic rhinitis).
• Beeswax - an antiseptic, anti-inflammatory and fights infections.
• Sage (salvia officinalis) - a herb that has anti-inflammatory and astringent properties.
• Chamomile (anthemis nobilis - roaman chamomile) - a herb that has anti-inflammatory and astringent properties. Useful for mental stress, anxiety and nervous excitability.
• St. John's Wort (hypercium perforatum) - a plant that has anti-inflammatory and astringent properties. Gently relaxes and has a restorative effect on the nervous system.
• Vitamin A (beta-carotene) - fights infections and strengthens the immune system.

Treatment

During treatment the warmth vaporises these ingredients which are drawn down the hollow centre of the candle and the herbally enriched vapour circulates within the external portion of the ear gently massaging the ear drum.

The vapours will soothe irritated areas, stimulate the blood circulation, intensify the immune system, improve lymphatic drainage and stimulate energy points by the properties of the ingredients. It then helps to regulate the pressure within the sinuses. It will also help soften the wax within the ear, to make removal easier. These are reinforced by the face and neck massage to form an overall holistic treatment. This is a natural, safe and soothing treatment.

The massage sequence to the face and neck following the application of the ear candles is designed to:

• Enhance the actions of the candles
• Stimulate the energy points
• Increase circulation of blood and lymphatic system
• Help drain sinus tubes
• Relaxation of anxiety and stress
• Elimination of toxins 

The treatment will take about 1 hour. Both ears are treated, using the specially designed hopi candles. Following which you will experience a relaxing facial and neck massage. Depending on the symptoms and problem, you may require more than one treatment and this will be discussed after the treatment with the therapist. The amount of time between the treatment may vary aswell. The treatment is safe and the candles used have filters. The whole ceremony brings a feeling of wonderful relaxation and a feeling of happiness.
