Olive Oil

Olive Oil


People always ask ” what is the best way to stop the wax building up in my ears?”. Honestly, there’s nothing we can do to stop the build-up of wax. Our ears are the only self-cleaning parts of our body and the wax has two functions. One is to migrate out of the ear canal picking up dirt and dead skin as it goes, the other is to protect the ear from infection as it’s antibacterial and anti-fungicidal. I recommend using olive oil drops, say once a week. This natural product will not upset the natural balance of the ear and will keep the canal lubricated and the wax soft. The wax removal will always be more comfortable if the wax has been softened beforehand.
