Hopi Ear Candling

 This course offers a qualification in Hopi Ear Candling and teaches students how to give a specific lymphatic drainage massage which enhances the work of the candles. It is accredited by The Complementary Medical Association and can count towards CPD.

The course is taught by Samantha Selby and Karen Coy, click here for more information about your tutors. It was developed after both Sam and Karen attended seperate courses and found the training to be patchy, coming away with many un-answered questions. After studying and practising the therapy they devised a course that, they believe, will offer comprehensive training in this wonderful therapy.

They have included instruction in a specific lymphatic drainage massage, designed to enhance the work of the candles. Most course providers don't teach a massage, often encouraging students to "just do your own thing". Both Sam and Karen feel this is a vital addition to this relaxing therapy ensuring the student is able to learn, then give, a very comprehensive treatment. 

All practical sessions are taught on a one-to-one basis.
