General Product Description
Ear Candles have been used for centuries to create a sense of well-being and hold a respected place in traditional medicine around the globe. Gaining large popularity in recent years, today they are used by people looking for a more natural approach to tending their mind and body.
Essenzza ear candles are made using 100% cotton and high-grade natural beeswax. High-grade beeswax is a commodity in high demand worldwide as it is used widely in many cosmetic and natural products. Only the best quality beeswax is used to make these candles, which improves consistency in the way that the candles burn during treatment.
The cotton is known as a 'butter muslin' style with a delicate weave. The cotton and weave is an important factor in how the candle burns and absorbs the beeswax when hand dipped. The fine weave also produces a consistent air flow for the candles to burn.
The candles are supplied with a safety filter to ensure a snug fit in ear and a protective disk to prevent any hot excess wax running down towards the ear. This is unlikely to happen but if it should, the disk is there for safety.
Key Features and Benefits

Directions for Use
Ear candles are supplied with a full user instruction manual. Please read through the instructions prior to commencing your treatment and refer to the booklet at all times.
1. A friend or partner must observe the whole treatment and assist by holding the ear candle upright vertical position while the candle is burning, at all times. The candle MUST be held at a ninety degree upright vertical angle to the ear and not leaning at any time.
2. Ensure that you are in a safe environment - indoors, with no 'through' drafts' as this can affect how the candle burns. Identify any flammable materials that you may be wearing or are nearby and remove these.
3. Lay down resting your head sideways on a comfortable pillow, placing a small warm wet towel around your ear, covering your hair, eyes and cheek area.
4. Insert the candle through the protective disk provided, filter end first, up to the stop mark. The disk must be used at ALL times for your added protection. If for any reason you do not have a disk then please use a paper plate or some card.
5. Gently place the ear candle vertically in the ear, filter end first, twisting gently to create a seal between the candle and your ear. Be careful not to force the candle too far into your ear.
6. When ready your partner should light the top of the candle and the crackling sound of fire will be heard. Don't be alarmed this is normal. Your partner should hold the candle for the entire process and not walk away or leave you. This will ensure that the candle is held at the required 90 degree vertical angle to the ear. The candle will shortly burn at a slow steady pace for approx 8-10 minutes, the desired optimum time.
7. When the flame reaches the 'stop mark' your partner should extinguish the candle in a glass of water ready nearby.
8. Have a short rest for a few minutes, turn over and simply repeat for the second ear when ready.
9. After using both candles we highly recommend remaining laid down and resting for 5-10 minutes, as this will significantly enhance the experience and place you in a deep state of relaxation ready for a good nights sleep.
