5.0 out of 5 stars Ear candles are the most often the best option for ear troubles, December 15, 2008

I am a Holistic Health Practitioner and was introduced to ear candling about 4 years ago. This is not a new practice, but was performed many years ago by the Native Americans. When done safely and properly, by a trained person, the results can be amazing.
The best part, I think, is the facial massage done with it to release any "stuff" in the sinuses and nasal passages.
I love having it done, my ears feel cleaner, and I can hear clearer.
My son has hearing problems and lots of wax build up and this helps to hear better.
My mother had hers done and found wax with a greenish tinge to it, which signifies a possible infection. Two days later she was diagnosed with an infection at the doctors office.
Done properly the candle should be extinguished and the burnt end cut off, the stuff inside knocked out, and relit, to get the full effects. Once the candle is clogged with wax, it doesn't draw any more impurities out of the ear.
I hope that anyone wanting to use these, does more research and seeks the advice of a professional. These are a great tool, when used properly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Long time ear cone user, March 24, 2010

Those of you saying that ear coning is a "hoax" are completely wrong. I have been using ear cones for years and they indeed do work. Some of you say the wax in the cone after is "the wax from the cone itself". Ridiculous. There is a very simple way to prove my point. First take a q tip or similar and draw some ear wax out of your ear canal. Smell it then smell the ear cone before lighting it. Ear wax smells very different from the bees wax or parafin wax used in ear cones. There is no comparison to the smell. Bees wax or parafin have a relatively clean smell to them. Ear wax has a much more pungent smell due to the impurities in it. Then do an ear cone on yourself. Push the wax out collected at the bottom of the ear cone and squash it with your fingers and smell it. It smells exactly like the pungent smelling ear wax because it is. If ear coning is done properly, you will have a usually large amount of ear wax collected with a white chalky substance covering it. Trust me, this is not melted bees wax or similar. Also after you do several ear conings your ear feels better and less clogged. You can feel the difference and it is not imagined.

The proper way to ear cone is first get the right ear cone design. The only ones that work well are in a true cone shape, small at the bottom tapering to larger hole at the top. I find the ones that are straight up and down from bottom to top don't work well if at all. Also, do not get cones with thick layers of wax on the outside. This makes the cone burn too slow and to get the vacuum action needed to draw the wax, the cone has to burn somewhat fast. Also, get a long narrow stick that will fit in the bottom of the cone to push out the debris. The best thing to do is stop half way through one cone, put it out and push out the debris and re light it and continue. When the debris clogs it up, no more wax will come in. You will also know when it is working by hearing lots of hissing and popping in your ear when the cone is in and lit. This is the vacuum working and drawing out the wax. If you don't hear the hissing, you either need to move it around deeper in your ear until you do, or don't have any wax to draw out. Keep moving around the small end of the cone that is in your ear until you hear that hiss. You will know. You also have to keep a good seal on the cone in your ear to create the vacuum so don't loosely put the cone in your ear. Seal it in there and move the tip around while the top is lit. Trust me, most people will start hearing that hiss. You can also feel the weight of the debris moving out of your ear. It is such a relieving experience and you feel so much better if you had a clogged ear like I get.

One warning though. Always have a spotter and have a paper plate with a hole cut in it for the cone to go through to catch any potential ash or embers from the cone when in use. Also, don't go crazy and overuse cones too many per day like I did. When I saw it working so well and how much wax kept coming out and how much better I felt, I wanted to keep doing it more and more one after the other. Don't do that. I would limit to two cones a day because if you do it too much, the warm smoke can begin to irritate your ear and even cause minor burning. Also, make sure after coning that you use water or hydrogen peroxide with a ear flushing syringe to wash out your ear. Some debris and smoke debris will remain in there and you need to get it out.

Anyway, I can understand some of the skeptics because it does seem unbelievable that warm smoke and a vacuum could draw wax debris from an ear but again, trust me it works and I don't own a coning company. It will get into parts of your ear to clean the wax and impurities that even a doctor and their irrigation tools cannot get to.

5.0 out of 5 stars WORKS WONDERS FOR MY DAUGHTER WITH WAX PROBLEMS, January 15, 2007

Ear candles work very well for my daughter, and really, our entire family. She has always had issues with her ears getting clogged- even her doctor is constantly amazed at how much earwax she has when we go in to visit. Until recently, that is. These have helped her so much- she used to yell a lot and we just thought it was how she is- really, she was so backed up with wax that she couldn't hear well. Things are so much better now- these work!
