FAQ

Watch the video to see how Ear Nurses gently remove ear wax and professionally clean your ears.

Did you know that:

  • Ears naturally produce ear wax
  • Ears have a built in self-cleaning mechanism
  • The skin cells inside the ear canal function like a conveyor belt pushing the ear wax out of the ear

Blockages can happen in your ears if your body’s natural cleaning process is disrupted by:

  • Use cotton earbuds
  • Wear airpod or headphones
  • Wear hearing aids
  • Swim regularly

Genetics can cause ear blockages due to the ear canal being:

  • Narrow
  • Curvy
  • Hairy
  • Contains excess skin

Essential Ear Care: Do’s and Don’ts for Healthy Ears.

DO

  • Gently clean the outer part of your ear with a damp cloth.
  • Wear earplugs in noisy environments.
  • Visit an Ear Nurse for gentle microsuction cleaning approximately once a year.

DON’T

  • Avoid using cotton buds, as they can push earwax deeper or even damage your eardrum.
  • Steer clear of ear candles, which have been shown to be ineffective and misleading (Seely et al., 1996).
  • Don’t attempt to clean areas of your ear that you can’t see.
  • Never insert anything into your ear that’s smaller than your elbow.
