Useless (and potentially dangerous) altmed CRAP.
Do not waste your money on these stupid things.

my friend uses ear candles to clear her nose/ears and throat - r these for the same thing - is so she loves them and uses them on a regular basis
she orders them from a site and uses them herself - they also promote a sense of well being

Hopi ear candles are used to help treat a number of conditions. This link may help...

I'm doubtful as to their benefits, being of the school of thought that you should not put anything smaller than your elbow in your ear. :)
I know people who have had the treatment and ended up having to go back again much faster than they first thought they would as their ear filled up with wax again.
I'm a huge supporter of complementary therapies, but this one I really don't like. Sorry.

My husband had this done and shortly afterwards started to suffer with tinnitus.

i dont think u will find beauticians doing it its a natural therapy it removes ear wax, a cone is burnt in yr ear. u can do it yourself and they are available in some pharmacies. about
