Phil, Anyone else who has tried it, speak up. It works, Phil! You should see the stuff that comes out....and I don't have particularly waxy ears....but the stuff does buildup and can require removal now and then. This is the most gentle (least harmful) and effective way I've ever tried. The suggestions of flushing, prodding with Q-tips or pouring all sorts of gurgly things in one's ear are pretty scary to me. I won't ever go back to those methods again. All I can say is: Try it and you let me know what your experience is! jeannie -----Original Message----- From: owner-pianotech@ptg.org [mailto:owner-pianotech@ptg.org]On Behalf Of philromano@attglobal.net Sent: Sunday, July 08, 2001 3:17 PM To: pianotech@ptg.org Subject: Re: My Hearing Condition ,Please read this Jeannie, Most of the reading I've done on the subject has deemed "ear candles" to be largely a placebo effect and in some cases a snake oil type of treatment. I'd be happy to be proved wrong though. What are your experiences?
