Ear Candling / Hopi Ear Candling one day course

About Ear Candling

This fascinating therapy has gained popularly in recent years as we seek natural forms of healthcare.  Ear Candling is a gentle, non-invasive therapy that is easy to perform and beneficial to receive.  It is soothing and helpful for conditions experienced by many of us e.g. headaches, compacted ear wax, sinus problems, tinnitus, pressure problems and more.  It is also a very relaxing therapy in its own right and helpful in alleviating stress.  The ear candles used are still made today on the basis of the old traditional formula originating from the Hopi Indians. Ingredients include beeswax, honey and sage.
Courses may be run in any area of the UK, Europe or even further afield! If you have a suitable venue and a group of students, please contact Mary to discuss possibilities.
