Hopi Ear Candles fixes me a treat

Okay so yesterday I spent a good hour and a half underneath my Santa Fe doing oil changes ATF & engine oil plus waxoyl for underneath areas.

When I got up off the floor I almost fell over and felt really sick and dizzy to the point where I had to have a lie down. Room spin when horizontal as if I had been out on a bender! Tried some ear poking with cotton bud-ziltch wax.

Pretty sure its a vertigo / ear wax type of thing. Woke up this morning and any sudden head acceleration was met with more room spin !

Remembered I had a part packet of Hopi ear candles from about 4 years ago.
Extended search with compulsory re-checking where you have looked already looked and found them in bedside cabinet.
Found an old flannel poked small hole in middle. Lay on floor with flannel over one ear, lit candle and held ii over right ear with end lightly in lughole.
Let it burn down to red mark takes about 10 minutes. Removed and dropped in tub of water. Repeated with left ear.
Felt immediately better and then cut open candles and discovered enormous lump of hard wax in one filter and a lot of wax in the other.

Will repeat tonight to get all the wax out. They are a brilliant form on none-invasive wax removal from the hippy era.
