How to Buy Ear Candles



Ear candles, which use heat-induced suction to draw impurities out of the ear canal, have been credited with relieving a variety of conditions. Conditions ranging from migraines to multiple sclerosis have purportedly been treated through this ancient practice. Folk lore and tribal legends have been handed down through the millennia about how to make and use ear candles. Follow these steps to learn how to buy ear candles.

Credit card or Pay Pal account if buying candles online

destinations
like the "White Egret" or "Ear Candles 4 U" Web sites (see Resources below).

Tips & Warnings










Ear candles can be bought online or at brick-and-mortar locations, usually health food or natural food stores.








The "chimney effect" of ear candling creates a warm, soothing sensation inside the ear canal as the candle burns.








Compare per-piece pricing carefully. There are significant differences between online retailers.








Don't attempt ear candling if you have a hearing problem based on an injury to the eardrum or ear canal.








Visit your doctor immediately if you have an intense ringing in your ears.








Before you start any alternative medical technique, be aware that many have not been scientifically evaluated. Often, only limited information is available about their safety and effectiveness. Each state and each discipline has its own rules about how alternative medicine practitioners can be professionally licensed. If you decide to visit one, choose one licensed by a recognized national organization. Consult your primary health care provider about your decision first. Keep your doctor informed about the alternative medical technique you undertake.
