Ear Coning

Ear coning originated in ancient civilizations, such as Indian, Chinese, Tibettan, Egyptian, and Native
American Indian cultures, thousands of years ago. All of these cultures used coning in healing and
spiritual rituals. The knowledge of acupuncture or acupressure demonstrates how the ears coordinate
with the organs in the body.

With all the advancements of technology, why ear coning? What makes it so much more effective than
the conventional method of ear cleaning? Ear coning is a natural alternative, and has a way of working
with a subtle vacuum, allowing the body to naturally release toxins and debris in an effortless way,
which is non invasive.

The ear contains approximately four thousand pores along with several thousand nerve endings. Asian
ear charts show the acupuncture points, indicating that there are nerves and meridians within the ear
canal connecting up to the pores. Nerves connect up like telephone lines from one part of the body to
the other, attaching themselves to organs, bones, muscles, and skin, and run to the very extremeties of
our hands, feet, and ears.

Pores run long vast and deep into our system connecting to our sinuses, lymph nodes, eyes, the
ceruminous glands, and other parts of the body. The ceruminous glands produce ear wax twenty four
hours a day. Excess wax puts pressure on the ear, and blocks our body systems, thereby compromising
the immune system.
When the tiny nerve endings are cleared from debris, vibrational sound waves can be received more
clearly. Many people find that regular ear coning helps their hearing aids work better, and those with
impaired hearing note that they hear and see more clearly after an ear coning.

Most people have pre-existing conditions and are unaware of what is happening to their body until they
come down with symptoms such as tinnitus (ringing in the ears), equilibrium imbalance, headaches,
deafness, allergies, swollen lymph nodes, Candida, or ear infections. Ear coning may alleviate these
kinds of conditions. (Candida, which stems from the liver and kidney creating infestations and toxicity,
may be caused by a combination of medication, yeast and parasitic worms, and may cause other
symptoms.)

Granted, it is necessary to have ear wax to protect us from the cold, viruses and other organisms.
However, an excess of wax may very well create a blockage, swelling up the pore creating other
blockages within, and may allow other organisms into the pores eventually leading to some sort of
condition, as well as preventing newly created wax from flowing through the pores normally.

Ear coning detoxifies the lymphatic system and clears the sinuses, which improves the clarity of hearing,
sight, smell, touch and taste.

Ear cones are made from strips of cloth, soy wax or beeswax, and may have herbs blended into the cones. Gently held to the ear canal, the ear cones operate through osmosis. Vapours of smoke spiral down, travelling into the sinuses, the ear canal, middle ear, eustachian tube, and through the lymphatic system warming up the pores, softening the wax. The flame from the burning cone creates a vacuum, dislodging and drawing out accumulated debris such as impacted ear wax, which may pull infection, crystallized protein matter, fungus and Candida into the cones.

This procedure may help people of all ages, even babies and senior citizens. The release of ear wax, toxins, and debris from the ear canal, helps to release the pressure from nerve endings and meridians of the body, which may also induce a deep relaxation. This treatment is also used as a clearance therapy to harmonize and cleanse the aura of the recipient. Ancient cultures believed that a flame burns off negativity.

There are many types of cones on the market but the most recent ones on the market are made from hemp, and are considered the "Rolls Royce" of ear cones. Ear coning should be carried out at least three times per year, as preventative maintenance. In special cases, ear coning is performed more frequently.

The procedure is a natural alternative to chemical solutions, long metal scraping objects, ear lavage or other more conventional methods of ear cleaning. Any device that puts water into the ears and sinuses can be damaging. When bacteria is breeding in water that's left behind, it promotes infection and other problems.

During your ear coning session, you will be lying comfortably on a massage table with relaxing music in the background. You will be covered with a nurses cap and a towel for safety purposes. An otoscopic examination is done on each ear before and after the coning. Gentle pressure and massage are carried
out on specific areas of the ears, face and neck. The heat feels warm and soothing. Unlike any other methods which are sometimes painful, your session should be a relaxing pleasant experience.
