How to Help Balance and Equilibrium With Ear Candles
If you have excessive ear wax, you may experience difficulty with balance and equilibrium. Ear candling is an age-old healing technique designed to suction out excessive wax and debris through its heat-based "chimney effect." Ear candles are used to purportedly treat earaches, sinusitis and a variety of other conditions and symptoms, including dizziness. Follow these steps to learn how to improve your balance and equilibrium with ear candles.
Things You'll Need:
Bowl of water
Friend to help you with the procedure
Ear candles
Garlic oil
Paper plate covered with aluminum foil
Internet access
Matches or lighter
Cotton swabs and cotton balls
1
Gather all of your supplies (see the "Things You'll Need" section below). You and your assistant should carry the supplies to a room where you can lie down and be comfortable. Lie on your side with your head level and your ear facing up.
2
Put the foil covered paper plate under the candle, feeding the narrow end of the candle through the hole in the plate. Next, insert the small end of the candle into your ear canal.
3
Be sure to keep the candle straight and upright. Ask your partner to light the wide end of the candle and hold it until an inch burns down. Have him cut the wick while holding it over the bowl of water.
4
Repeat the process 3 more times.
5
Wipe out the external part of the ear canal using the cotton swab. Pour a few drops of garlic oil into the ear canal and put a cotton ball in place to keep any from leaking out. Stay in that position until the oil is absorbed.
6
Turn to the other side to repeat all steps with the other ear. Over the next few days, you'll notice if your balance and equilibrium have improved.

Tips & Warnings
Ear candles tend to be quite inexpensive.
You'll need a partner to help you perform your ear candling.
Visit your doctor immediately if you are experiencing extreme dizziness. This could be the symptom of a more serious underlying condition.
Before you start any alternative medical technique, be aware that many have not been scientifically evaluated. Often, only limited information is available about their safety and effectiveness. Each state and each discipline has its own rules about how alternative medicine practitioners can be professionally licensed. If you decide to visit one, choose one licensed by a recognized national organization. Consult your primary health care provider about your decision first. Keep your doctor informed about the alternative medical technique you undertake.
