Ear Wax Removal

We are pleased to offer Ear Wax removal services here at the Wellbeing Centre. The ear canal is a self-cleaning organ, and ear wax is naturally pushed out of the ear canal as we move our jaws or chew. However, sometimes ear wax can build up and block the ear canal, leading to discomfort, hearing loss, and other problems. Removal can help bring relief for hearing loss, tinnitus or a feeling of pressure in the ear canal Here at the Wellbeing Centre, we can remove it in one of two ways:

Irrigation

Warm water irrigation, gently removes the wax by using a controlled, low pressure water jet which is angled towards the ear canal wall rather than at the actual blockage (which may push the wax deeper and cause discomfort or ear pain).

Microsuction

Undertaken correctly by a trained clinician, it is a pain free method used to remove wax from ear canals when irrigation isn’t possible, for example because of a perforated ear drum or grommets, where any water in the ear canal could enter the inner ear and cause problems.
