Ingredients
- 1 tsp olive oil (or almond oil)
- 1 drop tea tree oil (optional, antimicrobial)
- 1 drop garlic oil (optional, used historically for ear infections)
Instructions
- Warm the oil slightly (to body temperature) — test it on your wrist first to ensure it’s not hot.
- Lie on your side with the affected ear facing up.
- Using a dropper, place 1–2 drops into the ear canal.
- Stay in that position for 5–10 minutes.
- Sit up and gently wipe any excess oil.
🛑 Do not use this if:
- You have a perforated eardrum
- You experience pain, discharge, or sudden hearing loss
- You have an ear tube or recent surgery
Again, this is not a medical treatment to restore hearing and should not be treated as such. If you’re experiencing hearing issues, it’s essential to consult an audiologist or ENT specialist. Would you like help drafting a natural wellness post that stays within safe guidelines?
