Our Ear Candles:

• The ear candles we use in treatment are hand-crafted with care in the heart of the Okanagan, made from 100% pure Canadian bee’s wax.

• The fabric is 100% pure, unbleached, muslin cotton.

• Only the highest quality materials are used.

• All candles have a light exterior coat of beeswax.

• The inside of the candle is dry to the touch. This allows the ear wax that is drawn-up with the smoke to stick to the walls of the candle.

• Dimensions slightly vary as these candles are individually wrapped by hand.
