What Does Hopi Ear Candle Therapy Involve?

The candles are placed in opening of the outer ear canal and lit, thus gently warming the surrounding tissue. The effect is to gently massage the ear drum leaving a soothing, liberating and light sensation in the area of the ear. From the spiritual point of view the cleansing fire carries negative vibrations away from the metabolic energy fields, harmonising the energy status. They are not to be used with perforated ear drums or during acute infections.
