Did you know that ear candling can stimulate the blood and energy flow in the body? It can also help people suffering from tinnitus, blocked ears, sore throats, hay fever, and sinusitis.

.

So, how does it work?

You will be asked to lie on your side on a therapy bed and a special candle will be gently inserted in your ear. The burning action of the candle turns to vapour the herbs and essential oils. The vapour is drawn into the ear canal and this performs a massaging function as well as softening any impurities.

Gentle heat from the candle stimulates blood circulation of lymph, increases the cleansing circulation of lymph from lymphatic system. This intensifies the immune system and stimulates energy points and reflex zones. This regulates the pressure system within the ear and head.

We then repeat the treatment on the other ear.

You will then feel deeply relaxed and a lovely calming feeling is what most clients give as feedback, as it's a very soothing treatment and helps to soften ear wax also.

We can incorporate a therapeutic ear, face and neck massage to encourage lymphatic drainage.

Ear candling regenerates pressure in the ears and head. It helps relaxation in conditions of anxiety and stress, helps give balance back to your chakras, is stimulating to the metabolism and lymphatic system and it's also a great way to ease headaches.

This is a great treatment for anyone looking for a deep sense of relaxation, to bring calm and balance back to your life. Even if you have no symptoms, this treatment is for anyone looking to try something new and is suitable for both males and females.

Ukrainian Olympian joins parkrun for annual Chestnut Run


It is not every day an Olympian joins the Killarney parkrun, but participants had exactly that experience last Saturday, when two-time Ukrainian Olympic skeleton racer Vladyslav Heraskevych joined the event at Killarney House and Gardens.


Heraskevych completed the 5km route alongside members of both the local and Ukrainian communities as part of the annual Ukrainian Chestnut Run. The charity tradition originated in Kyiv 33 years ago and has been organised locally by the Killarney Ukrainian community for the past four years.
The athlete previously captured global attention at the 2026 Winter Games in Milan-Cortina with his “Helmet of Memory” tribute to fallen athletes.
His appearance in Killarney was part of a week-long tour of athletic and educational centres across south-west Ireland. He spent Friday night in Tralee ahead of the Saturday morning run. During his stay in the region, Heraskevych visited the MTU Tralee campus to meet with students, researchers, and local representatives to discuss sports diplomacy, sustainability, and inclusive sports.
