Ear Coning
2 Cones
Ear Cones are hollow cones about ten inches long.
They are hand made from unbleached Muslin cloth and a
special wax.
Ear cones are used to clean the ears and are believed
to help with various ear disorders. Using ear cones
is more comfortable and less expensive than
conventional ear cleaning where water is forced into
the ear canal. Ear Cones are an old home remedy. The
practice of using ear cones, is
actually an ancient
art from many other countries such as China,
Czechoslovakia, Mexico and Italy. Ear cones are being
used in alternative health care centers, and are
rapidly gaining popularity.
Many people with chronic ear problems seem to benefit
with frequent treatments. When using ear cones, the
small end of the cone is put in the ear and the other
end is lit. As the cone burns, the smoke travels into
the ear canal warming the ear and creating a gentle
vacuum. This can dislodge the wax or foreign debris
and pull it into the ear cone. Many report this as
being a rather pleasant sensation, and very relaxing.
Most often an improvement in hearing is reported after
using ear cones.
