Ear candling
Ear candling, also called ear coning, is an alternative medicine practice to improve general health and wellbeing by lighting one end of a hollow candle and placing the other end in the ear canal. Ear candles are made of cotton or linen thats wound into a cone shape, soaked in wax, and then allowed to harden.
An ear candling session can last from 15 minutes to 45 minutes, during which time a series of one or two ear candles may be burned for each ear. Usually, the treated person is lying on one side with the treated ear uppermost and the candle vertical. The candle can be stuck through a paper plate or aluminum pie tin to protect against any hot wax or ash falling onto the skin or hair.
The flame is cut back occasionally with scissors and extinguished between two and four inches from the subject. The experience is generally described as being unusual, but pleasant and relaxing. Some people may hear some crackling and popping, or feel some heat during the ear candling session. People who have ear tubes, perforated ear drums, or artificial ear drums should not do ear candling.
