Best Answer

When an experienced ear candler performs the procedure using 2 ear candles per ear, the session may last an hour or more. Each candle can take 8 to 12 minutes to burn down to 4" in length, where it is then removed and extinguished. For adults, 1 to 4 ear candles per ear are recommended for a single session.

Where can one learn about the process of ear candling?

Ear candling requires the use of ear candles. They're essentially made from the cotton or linen that's wound into the shape of a cone, then soaked in wax, and then allowed to harden. Many find this to be a satisfying procedure as it creates a low-level vacuum that draws ear wax and other debris out of the ear canal and into a hollow candle.


Is ear candling safe?

I have experienced ear candling myself a few times and seemed to have pretty good results. I had nothing bad happen to me, but across the internet there are many theories that the hot wax will go into your ear and cause serious damage. Though with my experience, there is nothing bad if you do it safely and with other people around. End result, it seems pretty safe if done properly.


What do you call someone who does ear candling?

I call then nuts... In October 2007, the United States Food and Drug Administration issued an alert identifying ear candles (also known as ear cones or auricular candles) as "dangerous to health when used in the dosage or manner, or with the frequency or duration, prescribed, recommended, or suggested in the labeling thereof" (see attached link for latest alert from the FDA). People who do it for themselves are called ear candlers or ear coners. Some N.D.'s (Naturopathic "Doctors") do ear candling.

How to perform an ear candling?

If it is your first time candling your ears, you should take every precaution. Take a paper plate and cover it with aluminum foil. Then, with scissors, cut an 'x' in the middle. Thread the candle through the opening so the skinny side is down. Have a wet paper towel handy. Lie down on your side and put the skinny end of the candle in your ear to make sure it fits comfortably. Remove it and light the fat end, the blow out the flame so it's just smoldering. Now, put it back in your ear and hold it in place. Have a mirror handy or another person to tell you when it's about four inches from your ear. Smother the fire with wet paper towel and carefully remove the candle. All of the ash should be on the plate so don't spill it.
