people with great medicinal knowledge and a high degree of spirituality,
brought this knowledge to Europe with the professional involvement

candles have a purely physical function. A light suction action
(chimney effect) and the movement of the flame create a vibration
of air in the Ear candle, generating a massage-like effect on
the eardrum. This induces a pleasant feeling of warmth and a
balance of pressure in the ears, forehead and sinuses. It is
soothing and helpful for earache and headache, ear noise, stress
and nervousness. These benefits have been well known through
19years of experience and confirmed by thousands of doctors
worldwide. Sectional View of the Ear Sound waves / Swinging

• This physical effect is often described directly after
the treatment as a soothing, pressure and pain relieving sensation,
mainly in the ear and head area. Treatment may also spontaneously
cause freer nasal breathing and an improved sense of smell,
even when the nose was blocked before treatment. . Furthermore,
the whole ceremony brings a wonderful relaxation, a deep sense
of security and a feeling of happiness, which is seldom experienced.

Ear candles are about 22 cm long and have a burning time of
10-12 minutes. Ear candles are used by setting them alight.
Beware of the fire hazard! Please store the Ear candles out
of children’s reach. • For safety reasons we do
not recommend you to carry out the treatment by yourself. It
should always be done by a second person. This will ensure your
safety during the treatment and enables a considerably deeper
relaxation. Before you start, always place a glass of water
within reach in order to extinguish the Ear candle• Do
you suffer from chronic or acute diseases? Do you feel Ear candling
may not suit you? In this case you should by all means consult
a therapist of your confidence for further advice. In the presence
of a perforated eardrum or tympanostomy tube implants (grommets)
we strictly do not recommend the use of Ear candles The same
applies to all kinds of inflammation or infection of the ear
or skin diseases in and around the ear. . Very rarely allergic
reactions to its ingredients are reported. This takes the form
of spontaneous itchiness and can be relieved with suitable eardrops.
• The application of Ear candles is at your own risk and
responsibility. If you follow the instructions carefully, the
application will be simple and safe. Safe and Easy Use of Ear
candles Relaxation music and essential oils are particularly
useful. You will experience Ear candling much more intensely
if you keep your eyes closed. • Keep yourself warm with
a blanket. Lie down on one side in a comfortable position. Support
your head slightly with a pillow so that the auditory canal
is in a vertical position. The room should be draught-free,
so the flame will burn smoothly. Draught in the room while the
Ear candle is alight can result in small, cold ash particles
blowing off the Ear candle In order to protect your hair and
clothing, your partner can place a cover around the treatment
area. • Lighting: When preparations are complete, your
partner sits comfortably next to you. He/She should light the
Ear candle at the unlabeled end and place the non-burning end
gently into the outer ear passage. A light turning movement
should be applied until the Ear candle is sealed in place. The
Ear candle is placed properly when you hear the pleasant crackling
and hissing of the flame • Your partner will hold the
Ear candle firmly in place throughout the process. He/She will
take care that no hair is within reach of the flame. •
Burning down: Remember the Ear candle has to be lit at the unlabeled
end, opposite the safety filter! The Ear candle will never self
extinguish! At the most, the Ear candle may be burnt down to
1 cm above the red line (maximum burn) marking. Carefully remove
the remainder of the Ear candle and extinguish it in the glass
of water ready nearby. • Treat both ears: It is generally
advisable to treat both ears one after the other, each with
a new Ear candle Any condensation material that remains attached
to the fine ear hairs should be removed. • Subsequent
rest: A subsequent rest of about 15 - 30 minutes will positively
support the overall result. Continue to enjoy soft relaxation
music and/or the smell of aromatic essences during this phase
as well. • Storage: Please always store Ear candles in
the airtight bag in a dry and cool place. BIOSUN hopes you enjoy
your treatment!
