How exactly does the warming process work when using the ear candle, and what should I feel during it?

When you light the top of the hollow beeswax cone, it burns slowly downward like a wick. This creates a mild, gentle warmth that radiates down the cone to the area around the outer ear and the ear canal opening. This warmth is not intense; you should feel a comfortable, soothing heat, similar to the pleasant feeling of holding a warm mug. The beeswax itself softens slightly, contributing to the warmth, while the essential oils and herbs within the wax mixture vaporize from the heat, releasing their characteristic fresh, herbal aroma. The correct sensation is one of relaxation and localized warmth. It should never be uncomfortably hot, cause pain, or create a burning sensation on your skin or inside your ear. The process is designed to be a calm, slow ritual – if you feel any sharp or intense heat, extinguish the candle immediately by dipping it in water.
