Ear Care

Otoscopy is a medical procedure used to examine the ear canal and eardrum. Using a handheld device called an otoscope, a healthcare professional inspects the ears for signs of infection, blockage, or other conditions. It helps in diagnosing ear-related issues such as ear infections, hearing loss, and foreign objects in the ear.

Ear syringing is a procedure used to remove excess earwax or debris from the ear canal. A healthcare professional gently irrigates the ear with warm water or a saline solution to flush out the buildup. This helps improve hearing and relieve discomfort caused by blocked ears. Ear syringing is typically performed when other methods, like ear drops, are ineffective.

Hopi ear candling is a traditional alternative therapy that involves using a hollow, cone-shaped candle made of natural materials. The candle is gently placed in the ear, and it is lit at the opposite end. The warmth and gentle suction help clear the ear canal, remove impurities, and promote relaxation. It is often used for relieving earaches, sinus pressure, and stress.
