Hopi Ear Candles
Thermal Auricular Therapy (also known as Hopi Ear
Candles) is a pleasant and non-invasive treatment of the
ears, used to treat a variety of conditions. I use Hopi
Candles ( Thermo Auricular Therapy ) frequently at my practice on the Wirral, Merseyside but there are many reputable therapists
throughout the country.
These Hopi Ear Candles induce a revitalising heat upon the head
and ears, which soothes, relieves and relaxes.
This is an ancient and natural therapy handed down by many
civilisations. It is believed that the Ancient Greeks used
ear candles, initially probably for cleansing, purifying and
healing on a spiritual basis, but much later on a purely
physical basis. However, the practice reached the modern
world via the native American Hopi Indians of North Arizona
(it's interesting to note that Hopi means peaceful people).
Ear candles were used traditionally by Shamen healers.
Ancient wall paintings show their importance in initiation
rituals and healing ceremonies of the tribe. The candles are
still made today on the basis of the old traditional formula
originating from the Hopi Indians.

The candles are made from the natural ingredients of
beeswax, honey extracts, sage, St Johns Wort, chamomile,
beta-carotene and organically grown flax. A constant high
quality is ensured. The candles work on a chimney principle,
drawing any impurities to the surface where they can be
gently removed. They equalise the pressure in the head and
ears, making them suitable for most conditions. Secretion
flow is gently stimulated and the vapour collects and
removes impurities or deposits. Most of these are carried
away through the candle "chimney", although some of them can
be found in the condensed candle wax residue after removal
from the ear, or could even work their way up to the surface
24-48 hours after.
