How do I tell a good ear candle from a "cheap" ear candle?
A good ear candle is NOT determined by it's size. It is determined by
its "BURN"TIME"
Generally, the longer a candle burns, the better results. 8-10 minutes is
recommended. Our candles have a TRUE 8-10 minute burn time as we wrap most of
the candle instead of the cone.
Don't be mislead by manufactures who claim to have 10-15 minutes of burn time.

What's the big deal about ear
candles and soy wax?
In our modern day, we are governed by the
"scientific method". Anything that can't be studied by
this method is considered a "scam", and great
efforts are made to discredit it.
Of course, the "scientific method" can't explain
why the bumble bee can fly!
Generally speaking, natural remedies like
EAR CANDLING, are inexpensive, so
pharmaceuticals and Doctors won't make a fortune
from prescribing ear candles , etc. It's easier for
Doctors to call ear candles a scam, than lose
patients to alternative remedies.
Ear Candling Works!
In our efforts to promote "green living" and
ecological responsibility, we use very little
packaging for our ear candles (just enough
to protect the candles). and we use a more
expensive beeswax / soy wax blend in the
crafting of our ear candles.
Soy wax leaves far less residue inside the
ear candle, thus the
ear candles clog less, allowing more warmth
and cleaner smoke to enter the ear canal to
aid in softening ear pain and excess wax in
the ear. With our beeswax soy wax blend
ear candles, you get a true result in your ear
candling session because there is virtually
no residue from the ear candle!
Beeswax is exceptional! Exceptionally
expensive by itself. Both soy and beeswax
are renewable sources for wax and burn
completely.
HOWEVER,
"100% beeswax", "essential oils" , "herb
infused" are all marketing hype other
companies use to charge you more for
their product!

BUY EAR CANDLES!
Review the Q & A below for help in determining if you are buying the right ear
candles:
THE EAR CANDLE SCAM!
"Gunk" in the ear candle is a marketing ploy used by ear candle manufacturers to
scare you into buying their ear candles.
Ear Candle Q&A
Is ear candling a scam?
If the ear candles you have used before where someone told
you all the "gunk" left in
the candle afterwards was from your ear, then YES, you were scammed. From what
we know, Ear candling
dates back to at least Ancient Egypt. There are variations of ear candling used
all over the globe.
In our modern day, we are governed by the "scientific method". Anything that
can't be studied by this method
is considered a "scam", and great efforts are made to discredit it. Of course,
the "scientific method" can't
explain why the bumble bee can fly! Generally speaking, natural remedies are
inexpensive, so
pharmaceuticals and Doctors won't make a fortune from prescribing them. It's
easier for Doctors to call it a
scam, than lose patients to alternative remedies.
What's the big deal about soy wax?
In our efforts to promote "green living" and ecological responsibility, we use
very little packaging (just enough
to protect the candles) we
use a more expensive beeswax / soy wax blend in the crafting of our ear candles.
Soy wax leaves far less
residue inside the candle, thus the candles clog less,
allowing more warmth and
cleaner smoke to enter the ear canal to aid in softening ear pain and excess wax
in the ear. With our
beeswax soy wax blend, you get a true result in your candling session because
there is virtually no residue
from the candle! Beeswax is exceptional! Exceptionally expensive by itself. Both
soy and beeswax are
renewable sources for wax and burn completely. HOWEVER, "100% beeswax",
"essential oils" , "herb
infused" are all marketing hype other companies use to charge you more for their
product!
Is it safe to use ear candles?
USE EAR CANDLES!. Beware of the Ear Candle Scam! Some ear candles
leaves lots of
"gunk" (residue) in the bottom of the candle which many people believe to be ear
wax. This "gunk" is,
unfortunately, one of the biggest scams being used to shock people into buying
ear candles. With our
beeswax soy wax blend, you get a true result in your candling session because
there is virtually no residue
from the candle! We have zero tolerance for those who promote "gunk",
"wicking action", "chimney
effect", "vacuum", or any related terms in their ear candling practices or
presentations. These are scams
designed to trap the ignorant. For the record, when I began using ear candles in
the 90's I too was taught "all
that gunk" was from the ear and the ear candle "sucked" all that wax out. I have
since learned differently and
am more empowered by the wellness effects of ear candling than ever before. A
remedy that is thousands of
years old, has proven the "test of time" I hope you enjoy your improved, scam
free and environmentally
friendly candles.
Do they really work?
That's really up to you. If you were told it "sucks the wax out of your ears"
then the answer is NO. If you
believe that the individual is responsible for his or her own healing then YES,
ear candling works. Many of my
own personal experiences and those of my clients, friends, family and customers
express relief from ear pain,
hearing problems, ringing in the ears, chronic wax build-up, sinus issues and
headaches.
Remember, alternative remedies take longer, but cause less damage to the body
than invasions from drugs,
probes, irrigation, surgery, etc. The very things a doctor would recommend!
BTW: ear candles do not help you or your spouse with "selective" hearing loss!
LOL
Is all that stuff in the tip of the candle from my ear?
No. In our ear candles 99% of the wax
residue is from the ear candle. It's
not wax "removal" that makes ear candling such a wonderful alternative remedy.
We'll address this further
down in the questions and answers, so keep reading! If you are using a paraffin
blend candle and you want to
know which wax is which, let the candle cool. After it has cooled, squeeze the
wax. If it is squishy, it may be
mixed with ear wax from your ear. If it is hard, you can be certain that it is
all from the ear candle.
How often do I candle my ears?
Common sense is the determining factor. I candle my family every 3-6 months and
during cold, flu and allergy
season we candle weekly. 2-3 candles per ear is normal. I would never use more
than 4 candles per ear
under any circumstances.
When is ear candling a "no-no"?
If the ear drum is perforated, if there are tubes in the ear, or if you have any
rash or open sores/wounds in or
around the outer ear. Ear Candles will help with ear ache pain, but do NOT
reduce infection. You should seek
the advise of a doctor if any of these conditions are present.
I didn't see much wax in the candle after I finished. Should I candle again?
No. That means you are NOT using paraffin ear candles! Ear Candling should be
used as maintenance rather
than for repair. The candling process lets the individual achieve a sense of
clarity. I always ask my clients to
"come in for a landing" after they have been candled. I ask them to envision the
landing gauge from an
airplane. Once they sit up from being candled, I ask them if they are they
coming in straight, or are they
feeling tipped to one side or the other? If one side (wing so to speak) is
heavier than the other, then I candle
that candle that ear again. Balance is achieved when they come in straight for
their landing.
If you are using a paraffin based ear candle then rest assured most, if not all,
the wax is from the ear candle!
With a 100% Beeswax, or a Beeswax / Soy Wax blend, you will be able to look
inside and through the candle
without cutting it open. A good ear candling session will give you an immediate
sense of clarity, relaxation, and
wellbeing --just like a massage! In most cases you won't see anything come out
immediately after the session,
HOWEVER, if you have excessive wax build-up, you should notice more sloughing
out in the 2-3 days
afterwards.
It's important to keep in mind that most alternative remedies (home remedies,
wellness remedies, etc) do not
offer instant results like pills and antibiotics do. Alternative remedies don't
destroy your liver either!
If my ears are itchy should I candle them?
No. Itchy ears can be a symptom of scores of issues or it might be as simple as
a reaction to the chemicals in
your shampoo. Rinse your ears thoroughly each time you shampoo. ALSO, there is a
fungus that grows in the
ear, which loves the humid climates in our southern states. Take a q-tip and
swab the outer ear twice daily
with brown vinegar (apple cider vinegar). That should cure it within 24-28
hours.
What do I do if some of the candle gunk gets in the ear?
You can expect the possibility of this happening if you use ear
candles. To remove it, use a
Q-Tip dipped in hydrogen peroxide or a good ear oil, and gently swab the residue
out of the ear using outward
sweeps being careful not to push it further inside. Repeat the process until the
residue is removed.
Afterwards, put 3 drops of a good ear oil on a small piece of a cotton ball and
place in the ear. Leave that in
for at least an hour before removing (overnight is better). Gunk will not be a
problem with 100% beeswax ear
candles or with our exclusive beeswax / soy wax blend. If you feel pain or can't
get the residue out of your ear,
go to your Doctor asap!
While my friend was ear candling me it was very hot and uncomfortable. What
happened
and what should I do?
Soy burns hotter than paraffin which is one of the reasons we mix it with
beeswax. Paraffin leaves lots of
residue which can drip into the ear canal and cause possible damage. Regardless
of the type of wax used,
the person ear candling should always check the candle during the session to
make sure there isn't any wax
dripping down the candle. You can check this by keeping a lamp on during the
session. The light reflecting
through the candle will allow you to see any bulk wax dripping down. If this
happens and you feel
uncomfortable: STOP CANDLING IMMEDIATELY! To reduce the outer temperature of the
tip of soy based
candles, you can use silicone ear plugs (found at Walgreens or CVS) to wrap
around the tip of the candle.
This not only acts as a very comfortable heat barrier but helps to make a tight
seal around the ear for candling
purposes. The silicone ear plugs are reusable too! Don't use the same ear plugs
on more than one person
though. . ewe!
There was _________ stuck on the end of the candle. Did that really come from my
ear?
My customers and clients (as well as family) have told me about all sorts of
things ending up in the ear... dirt,
bugs, sand etc. My own son had a foam pellet from a bean bag chair stick to the
end of the candle. . . 5 years
and several doctor visits AFTER the bean bag chair broke open and sprayed all
over him! The ear is built to
get rid of foreign materials, and every so often we need to help it along.
Scores of our valiant military
personnel order ear candles to get rid of the sand and ear pressure problems
while they are over seas!
After I ear candle there is powder inside the candle and sometimes in my ear.
What is it?
Most beeswax candles will produce powder. Our soy wax / beeswax blend will
produce a minimal amount of
powder but the tip should not get clogged.
Any ear candle containing beeswax will produce a larger accumulation of powder
residue than
plain paraffin. If your supposed "100% beeswax" candle has "gunk" in it instead
or along with
powder (after you finish candling), the company you ordered from mixes it with
paraffin.
If you are using a paraffin or a paraffin / beeswax blend ear candle, stopping a
few times during the session to
clear the tip (use a toothpick) will help. When you finish the session, use a
q-tip dipped in hydrogen peroxide
and gently swab the ear to collect any powdery residue you are uncomfortable
with. Be carefull not to stick the q-tip
too far!
Any natural material is NOT going to be 100% predictable, so expect some
variations to occur from
time to time.
