Discover the soothing benefits of ear candling with our premium range of ear candles at Holland & Barrett. Our selection of scented ear candles offer gentle warmth, helping you unwind and promoting a sense of calm and relaxation.
Ear candles are hollow tubes traditionally crafted from natural materials like beeswax, cotton, or herbs. When lit, they create a gentle warmth that many users find calming and comforting, often used as a natural relaxation practice. Ear candling, also known as thermal-auricular therapy, has been traditionally used to support overall wellbeing and relaxation.
While some believe that ear candles are useful for removing ear wax, there is no evidence to support this claim. Instead, the benefits of ear candling are typically linked to relaxation. For scented ear candles, the practice doubles as a form of aromatherapy.
To enjoy ear candling safely:
Lie down comfortably on your side.
Lay down a protective cloth or towel around the base of the candle, or attach a paper or foil barrier.
Insert the tapered end gently into your outer ear canal.
Light the candle's opposite end and let it burn to the indicated mark. Be sure to keep the candle still to prevent dripping hot wax.
Carefully extinguish the candle in water.
Always use ear candles with a partner, and follow the instructions provided with the product closely. Ear candles should not be used if you have ear infections, perforated eardrums, or allergies to candle ingredients.
