Hopi Ear Candling

A therapy which withdraws impurities from the ears very gently.  Many people need to have their ears syringed from time to time --- they can become blocked  which may begin  to impair hearing, some people find syringing quite aggressive or even painful.
With Hopi Candles you can experience a very gentle and enjoyable treatment which can also assist in the relief of sinus problems, headaches/migraines, tinnitus and vertigo.  Hopi candles are not the usual run-of-the-mill household variety, they are slender hollow tubes, made from organically-grown linen, beeswax, honey, chamomile and sage oil.  Because they are hollow, they create a vacuum when burned and thereby draw out impurities from the ear. It does sound rather bizarre when you discover that to receive  Hopi Ear Candling you will need to lie on a couch with a lighted candle in your ear, but do be assured that the therapist does not leave you, he/she will sit and hold the candle in place  whilst ensuring that no ash falls on you.  Hopi Ear Candles originate from the peaceful Hopi Indian tribe of North America where they were used to induce a state of trance.  Our treatments don't claim to do that, but everyone who comes to Sue for a Hopi finds the treatment suprisingly enjoyable and relaxing!  
n.b. If you are not able to lie on a couch to receive this treatment, you can sit comfortably leaning on cushions --- it is just as effective.
