Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 When I help my friend use the ear candles, she feels they are working because she can hear so much better afterwards, sounds are crystal clear. That's probably the key, whether hearing is improved, and not so much what you can see inside the used candles. She also sees the dark wax and also the white residue, which she believes is candida. She used the candles on me, but I only wanted the experience, I did not feel as though I needed to clean my ears. And, there was very little wax to be seen in the candles, as compared to what we saw after using them in her ears.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 When I was considering whether to offer ear candling as a service to my clients, I did quite a bit of experimenting, which included burning the candle without ear insertion, and, as some have reported, there was wax residue resembling ear wax exactly the same as in the cone I had used on my test subject. Naturally, I was disappointed, but when you consider how powerful the suction would have to be to actually pull ear wax out of your ear,there would likely be some damage to the eardrum. , " Bill West " <coffeemon2002 wrote: > > I've been reading up on ear candling and looks like they're trying to ban them in Australia, Canada and the UK if they haven't already.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 The ear candles I use are white and the stuff inside is yellow and looks like wax. How could it not be the ear wax? From: bluegreensolutionsDate: Sun, 18 May 2008 13:39:00 +0000 Re: ear candles The wax you see at the end of burning is the leftover residue from burning the candle. Nothing comes out of your ear. You will note that all the ear candles are the color of ear wax.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 I always take a paper plate and put a hole in the middle then put the candle in the hole. That way if any of the burning candle falls it will fall on the plate and protect your clothes.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Here's what THEY think about ear candles. (Who the hell cares what "they" think?) This isn't even the government's business. I don't see anything that even closely resembles a scientific study disproving the effectiveness of ear candles. But of course "eliminating the competion" and alternatives is basic economics when the regulatory agencies are in bed with big pharma. http://www.healthwatcher.net/Quackerywatch/Ear-candling/index.html - helen marie --------------------- health_and_healing Sunday, May 18, 2008 4:43 PM RE: Re: ear candles I always take a paper plate and put a hole in the middle then put the candle in the hole.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 All the candles that's I've seen in my area are yellowish, and they are waxy, shaped like a regular candle, but hollow. I had to take my mother in to the walk-in clinic one day to get the wax out of her ears, and while I was there I had mine checked and he told me I had no wax in my ears and didn't need it done. The next day I went with a few of my girlfriends to a HFS where they were doing ear candling, and we all decided to have it done. We all got the exact same amount, and same color, of junk leftover in the candles - including me, who didn't have any wax in there to begin with. So what was that? And why would all 5 of us end up with the same leftovers? The other 4 girls reported that they could hear no better than before it was done. There is also the possibility of burning your eardrum. Be careful. Carol , helen marie --------------------- <hmariewv wrote: > The ear candles I use are white and the stuff inside is yellow and looks like wax. How could it not be the ear wax?

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 This is how it was for my daughter and everyone she tried it on - so there seem to be two results - one with wax of a different colour to the actual candle and one where there is only candle debris. Guess it depends on the condition of the ears!

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 Is it common sense or logical to pinch the end closed in something that is intended to produce a gentle suction as a tube in order to either relieve pressure or remove debris from an ear canal? Doing that proves nothing and does nothing!

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 RESULTS: drum roll please... The amount of white powdery stuff was about the same as usual. And I was surprised to find several dark brown balls of hard wax too. Maybe slightly darker than ear wax. But this isn't NEARLY the amount of brown wax I get when I do an ear candling. There's 10 to 20 times more usually. But the small amount of brown wax was surprising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
