Ear Candling

What is Ear Candling?

Ear candling is an ancient practice used in Asian medicine dating back to 360 BC.  For generations is has assisted people with sinus congestion, colds, ear aches and infections, candida, headaches, lymphatic congestion, sore throats, mucus, sinus infections and balance and equilibrium issues.  According to some holistic healers “it is a soothing experience that reduces stress and tension and also sharpens mental functions”.

As our cold weather in Calgary starts to ramp up it is a good idea to do some body “housecleaning” to assist you in navigating all of those winter illness issues and ear candling is a great start for that.  At  Massage For Health  our therapists are well versed in the ear candling process.  

The basic premise of ear candling is that the ear canal is warmed up causing wax and other material to loosen.  As the canal heats up the candle causes suction by creating a vacuum in the ear canal.  Because of the all of the intricacies of the inner ear serious amounts of toxins and debris such as mold, yeast (especially after a round of antibiotics) and fungus just to name a few. 

Ear candling along with massage, pregnancy massage, laser hair removal and eyebrow threading are just some of the many services offered at  Massage For Health.   You can be assured a positive effective treatment with us.  Call Massage For Health today at 403.225.0763 to find out further information on ear candling or to book your winter preparedness appointment today.
