Thermal Auricular Therapy

This popular treatment involves the use of ear candles which can help with symptoms of sinusitis, rhinitis, ringing in the ears, hay fever, snoring, headaches, neck pain, neuralgia and congestion. It can also treat clients who experience ear and jaw pain due to pressure changes when flying, clients who go deep sea diving and swimmers that suffer from water in the ear. This non-invasive therapy is perfect for clients who would like to explore alternative therapy. We recommend the use of “Hopi” Ear candles made by Biosun as they met the quality control and safety standards.

How training here works

1 Book your place. You pay the deposit by card and the place is yours from that moment. The course details and materials are emailed to you, and the balance is due on your training day.
2 Train in a small group. Theory, a demonstration, then the treatment on each other - and on a model for assessment.
3 Practise, then get assessed. Some of the short day courses are assessed on the day; others need you to come back to the centre for the assessment. Practising at home on friends and family is a must. Assessment dates are usually agreed and booked during the training, at a time to suit you.
