Hopi Ear Candles

Hopi Indian Ear Candling, is an ancient form of treatment which was used by the North American Indians. The hollow cylindrical candles are made of natural substances such as valuable honey extracts, 100% pure beeswax, crushed traditional Indian medicinal herbs (mainly Sage and Chamomile), beta carotene and a pesticide free woven cotton. They are used to both cleanse the ear and regulate the pressure system in the inner ear. 

Janet always include a face and head massage to enhance the effectiveness of the candles. This treatment is 30 - 40 minutes of pure relaxation. 

Chinese Acupuncture

Traditional Chinese Acupuncture works on the cause of disease/health problem, rather than the symptom. After talking to you and asking a few relevant questions, Janet can make an informed decision about the appropriate course of treatment to suit your individual needs.

Janet describes the treatment as follows:

"I will insert needles into specific point locations on your body, triggering the release of neurotransmitters in the brain that can, among other things, reduce pain and inflammation, regulate the functions of the organs and stimulate the natural healing in the body's tissues therefore restoring the body's homeostasis (natural balance)."
