I have had a problem with my ears since I was kid. Getting them professionally cleaned was something I remember always hurting while it was happening, but it felt so good after it was done. These days, I find the ear candling treatment has wonderful effects. These candles have a great way of cleaning out my ears, I always feel so much better after it's done. The wax (and other stuff) release from my ears makes my ears feel clean and fresh, and I always end up hearing better. I love that The Wally Star is awarded to the Wally Ear Company!
