Hopi Ear Candles

I was asked just recently about Hopi ear candles and as they are such a wonderful natural remedy, I thought I would mention them today as so many of us could benefit from them from time to time. The other name for Hopi Ear Candling is Thermo Auricular Therapy, and it is a viable treatment for many conditions of the ear, nose and throat area. The way it works is really quite simple. The candles, once lit, cause convectional air flow towards the inner chamber of the ear. This causes a suction effect which serves to massage the eardrum and auditory canal. When the candle is placed in the ear it forms a seal with enables ear wax and other impurities to be drawn out. The interesting name Hopi I am told comes from the Hopi Indians from Arizona. They used the candles in their culture to clear negative energies from their head and their aura.

Here at Baldwin’s we stock of course the very best, and the very best in this case means the only EU standard candle available. With full instructions, a safety filter and a line to show when the candle must cease to be burned, they are safe and easy to use. They are made from linen, pure beeswax, honey extract and essential oil of St John’s wort.

Hopi candles can be used in the battle against sore throats, hay fever, headaches (even migraines) catarrh, asthma and sinusitis to name a few. They cannot treat serious lingering ear conditions but are definitely a natural and enjoyable way to massage the ears and enjoy a host of benefits as described above.
