Hopi Ear Candle

£25
30 mins

A Hopi Ear Candle treatment is a relaxing, heat based therapy designed for comfort and calm. You will lie back while a hollow candle is placed at the entrance of the ear and lit safely, creating a gentle warmth, followed by soothing massage around the ears, jaw and temples. It is often booked as a quiet reset when you feel tense or run down, rather than as a medical treatment. If you have ear pain or ongoing symptoms, we will always advise medical guidance first.

More information

What your Hopi Ear Candle appointment includes

A 30 minute appointment focused on relaxation, comfort and safe technique.

  • A quick suitability chat before you start, including any current ear symptoms.
  • Comfortable positioning, with hair and skin protected.

  • Gentle massage around the ears, temples, jaw and scalp to help you switch off.
  • Time to sit up slowly at the end, with simple aftercare guidance.

When Hopi Ear Candling is usually chosen

This treatment suits people who want a peaceful, low effort way to unwind, especially if you carry tension around your head and jaw. It can also appeal if your ears feel a little “full” after colds or busy weeks, but it is not a substitute for proper ear care. If you think you have a wax blockage, pain, discharge, or sudden hearing changes, it is best to speak to a pharmacist or GP.

Hopi Ear Candle treatment, step by step

We start with a brief check in so you know what will happen and can fully relax. The candle sits at the entrance of the ear, it is never inserted into the ear canal. You will feel gentle warmth and hear a soft crackle while the candle burns for a set time, then it is extinguished safely. We repeat on the other side and finish with a relaxing head and temple massage.

Aftercare following Hopi ear candling

Plan to take it easy for the rest of the day if you can, as most people feel very relaxed afterwards. Avoid poking inside the ears with cotton buds, and keep water out of the ears if they feel sensitive. If you notice pain, dizziness, discharge, or symptoms that do not settle, seek medical advice.
