Ear Irrigation (30 minutes)
Irrigation uses a gentle stream of warm water to lift the wax out of the ear and is preferred by some clients.
We use the most up to date irrigation system available. This system is regulated to make the pressure safe for you ear canal and automatically warms the water to the correct temperature preventing a caloric effect and preventing dizziness.
We are fully certified to perform Irrigation and are more than happy to perform this service if it is your preferred method of wax removal.
Irrigation has received bad press recently and is usually confused with syringing which is unsafe, as the pressure is unregulated. One reason that irrigation may be dismissed is because the clinician is not qualified to perform the procedure. Irrigation is safe to use unless you have had a perforated ear drum and/or a recent ear operation.
Microsuction (30 minutes)
Microsuction is one of the safest and easiest way of cleaning ears when performed by a certified aural specialist.
The microsuction technique uses gentle suction to clean the ear, this method is more comfortable and safer than all other forms of ear cleaning.
We use a small thin tube that is placed on the ear wax/infection/discharge in the ear canal, and the gentle suction removes the blockage.
