Anyone ever try ear candles for better listening?


This is no joke! Ear candles are a great way to clean the excess wax from your ears. My family all did it this past weekend and WOW, what a difference! I had to turn the volume down a bit. Anyone ever try them? Joe

Dweller is right.
Not in our house. Tipping my head on its side won't clear my sinuses. Candling does.
Pardon my ignorance, but I thought that wax had to be melted before it can be drawn up through the wick. Why not just go to a drug store and buy the Murine kit. It's not as new-age as sticking a lit candle in your rear (umm...ear) but it works nevertheless.
Another thing you can do- works for ears or bum- is use the high-power Shop-Vac in your garage. I haven't tried it, but it should work. AND if you replace the Shop Vac powercord with a Dominus, it should work even better!
True story:
an aquaintence of mine is into all sorts of new age remedys.
After trying this, he convinced himself that ear candling would be beneficial for the whole family and his mom reluctantly agreed just to shut him up.

After his 'remedy' managed to set her hair on fire, the experiment was discontinued.
