Excuse me but there is no chance that deafness can be cured by ear candling. That is dangerous misinformation. From Wiki: "The Spokane Ear, Nose, and Throat Clinic conducted a research study in 1996 which concluded that ear candling does not produce negative pressure and was ineffective in removing wax from the ear canal.[2] Several studies have shown that ear candles produce the same residue when burnt without ear insertion and that the residue is simply candle wax and soot" "Prof. Edzard Ernst has published critically on the subject of ear candles noting that "There are no data to suggest that it is effective for any condition. Furthermore, ear candles have been associated with ear injuries. The inescapable conclusion is that ear candles do more harm than good. Their use should be discouraged" In the US, selling ear candles with medical claims is illegal. Why are you answering your own question?

Ear Candling does not work and is highly dangerous. Not only have Ear Candles have been proven in medical studies to be non-effective, the explanation of how they supposedly work is nonsense. What ear candler proponents/sellers say, and why they are either wrong or scamming you: "The heat creates a vacuum which draws wax from ears" FALSE. If you place an ear candle over a vacuum measuring machine you will see that NO vacuum is created. "You can see the ear wax that has come from the ear" FALSE. The wax has been tested many times, it is CANDLE wax. "It is perfectly safe" FALSE. The heat and wax often burn the victim and many people have been taken to hospital with burns, ear canal obstruction with candle wax and even perforated eardrums. It is illegal in the US to sell ear candles that make medical claims without FDA approval... which none of them have. Furthermore, ear candles cannot be legally sold in some countries like Canada, because they are a dangerous scam. Ear wax is an important part of your ear. "For most people, ear wax moves along the ear canal and eventually makes it to the outside, taking with it any accumulated dirt or other matter. Compacted ear wax should be removed by a physician or other health professional using legitimate instruments. Candling is both ineffective and dangerous."
