Hopi Ear Candling - New Course for 2008

About Hopi Ear Candling

Ear Candling is an ancient, natural therapy and has its historic roots in Asia and can also be traced back to other ancient civilizations such as the Greeks, Romans and Egyptians.

This gentle and highly effective healing art was introduced to us by the native American Hopi Indians, who are well-known for their natural healing techniques and spiritual way of life.

Traditionally, the ear candles will have been used at religious and healing ceremonies to purify and cleanse on a spiritual level, but nowadays they are used as a natural method to help relieve a range of conditions associated with the ear, nose and throat eg headaches, migraines, ear aches, tinnitus, compacted ear wax, glue ear, sinus problems.

Hopi candles are manufactured using an old traditional recipe originating from the Hopi Indians, using only natural organic ingredients.
