Advantages: Alternative to syringing and much more pleasant

Disadvantages: Cost

I have always suffered on and off for the past couple of years with sinus problems. A few months ago I was recommended Hopi ear candles by my holistic therapist as a holistic approach and alternative to syringing. I went and bought some from the Chinese medicine shop in town and was a little shocked at the price at first. After I got home and found a willing helper I placed the lit candle in my ear and relaxed for ten minutes. After extinguishing the candle when it had reached the red indicator line I peeled open the remaining stem and was amazed to find the amount of wax that had been removed. They act as a chimney sucking up the loosened wax, the vibration and heat created by the candle being on fire help to loosen the wax which in turn gets sucked up into the candle by the smoke and air going up it like a chimney. They smell pretty nice to and it's really quite a pleasant feeling, I felt much more relaxed after I'd finished. I noticed my hearing, balance; taste and sinuses had all improved after using the candles once a week for around one month. I found them on holland and barrets now also 3 packs for £20. I now use them once a month to keep on top of wax build up and can feel the difference. I'd say give it a go if you're not convinced you'll be surprised.

Summary: Brilliant product
