Velas en los oídos, también conocido como Thermo-Auricular Therapy o Hopi Ear Candles, is a natural and complementary wellness treatment that has gained popularity for its relaxing and cleansing effects. This alternative therapy is widely used in holistic and aesthetic wellness centers to support ear hygiene, sinus relief, and overall sensory balance.
At My Cosmetic Surgery, we carefully select non-invasive wellness treatments that complement our aesthetic services, offering patients a comprehensive approach to well-being.
¿Qué es la vela del oído y cómo funciona?
Ear Candling is a gentle procedure that uses hollow wax cones infused with aromatherapy ingredients. One end of the cone is delicately placed at the entrance of the ear canal—never exceeding a depth of two centimeters—while the other end is lit.
As the candle burns, it generates mild heat and a subtle vacuum effect that helps to:
- Soften and loosen excess earwax
- Support the natural drainage of impurities
- Promote cleansing of the ears, nose, throat, and paranasal sinuses
- Encourage relaxation and stress relief
The warmth produced during the session enhances circulation in the ear area, contributing to a soothing and therapeutic experience.
Benefits of Thermo-Auricular (Ear Candling) Therapy
Patients who undergo Ear Candling Therapy often report noticeable improvements in both physical comfort and sensory perception. Key benefits may include:
- Improved hearing clarity
- Relief from sinus pressure and congestion
- Reduction of vertigo and dizziness
- Decrease in headaches and migraines related to sinusitis
- Enhanced senses of smell, taste, and overall perception
- Support for proper ear hygiene
This treatment may also assist in clearing fungi and accumulated earwax when performed correctly and in appropriate intervals.
A Safe and Relaxing Wellness Experience
When administered by trained professionals, Thermo-Auricular Therapy is a safe, non-invasive, and deeply relaxing procedure. It is especially suitable for patients seeking natural ear cleansing and holistic support for sinus and auditory discomfort.
However, like all complementary therapies, ear candling should not be overused and must be performed following proper safety protocols to ensure optimal results and patient comfort.
En My Cosmetic Surgery, we believe that beauty and wellness go hand in hand. Our approach combines medical expertise, modern aesthetics, and complementary therapies to provide patients with a balanced and elevated care experience.
Our team ensures that every treatment—whether aesthetic or wellness-focused—is performed with professionalism, attention to detail, and patient safety as the top priority.
