Hopi ear candling at The Therapy Studio, Rimington

Hopi ear candling is a complementary therapy in which a hollow candle is placed gently at the ear, usually finished with a relaxing face and scalp massage. At The Therapy Studio in Rimington the guide price is from £60.

What an appointment is like

You lie on your side while the candle is held in place, one ear at a time, with a warm crackling sound many people find soothing. A face, scalp and lymphatic massage usually follows.

The whole appointment takes around forty-five minutes to an hour.

Being clear about what it is

Ear candling is offered as a relaxing complementary therapy. It is not a medical treatment and is not a way to remove ear wax.

If you have earache, hearing loss or blocked ears, see your GP or a pharmacist for advice first.

Aftercare and what to expect

  • Keep the ears dry and warm for the rest of the day.
  • Drink water and rest if you can.
  • Do not book if you have a perforated eardrum, grommets, an infection or recent ear surgery.
