Benefits of Ear Candling
Ear candling is a pain-free remedy for the following conditions: tinnitus, ear infections, glue ear, and swimmer’s ear. Additionally, the technique is believed to help fight headaches, sore throats, postnasal drips, sinusitis, and catarrh.
Some people say that they experience immediate relief from any congestion with ear handling. Supposedly, it is thought to be great for people with upper respiratory congestion. There are also those who believe that ear candling is great for lymph drainage and circulation.
But, are these claims true?
Do Ear Candles Really Work?
Despite some reviews, ear candles are not recommended and do not work in removing ear wax. There is no scientific proof as well that shows that it can address various ear problems, including infection and tinnitus, among others.
In fact, the process itself may cause the earwax to be further pushed into the ear canal, making it harder to clean your ears with normal tools. Ear candling can be very harmful to your ear.
When cleaning, you should only clean the outer part of the ear.
