Wrap the fabric around the ear cone and leave it alone for 10 minutes. Unwrap and allow the cone to dry before using. Always cone with a partner who can keep an eye on the flame, so you can relax Beeswax candles are especially indicated for people who suffer from allergies, hay fever, asthma, etc. Beeswax candles burn slower than paraffin, have a pleasant aroma and have a very soothing effect on the ear. Since beeswax does not disintegrate as does the paraffin or paraffin combination candle, the remains may consist of more candle residue.
Relaxation is an important part of the coning process.
While some people may choose to cone themselves, for safety we recommend having a partner present to keep an eye on the flame so you can relax. Coning is not designed to take the place of professional medical advice or treatment when it is indicated. It's important to note that some people should not use cones. For instance, people who have had ear, nose, throat or sinus surgery recently, and those with tubes in the ears are not candidates for coning. Anyone with ear drum rupture, perforation, or experiencing bleeding of the ear, should see a doctor immediately as this indicates a serious ear problem.
