A member asked:
Can the hopi ear candle treatment actually work by removing excess ear wax from your ears?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ear wax removal: Does the hopi treatment involve using a lighted candle whose other end is inserted into the ear canal? That would be very dangerous due to the risk of getting burns. I also wonder if that ever works!
